The Waterfall entrance to Crowbar has been driven!  :beerchug:

Shane (whitebrowithafro on the Pirate BB) drove it in his custom buggy with Dana 60 axles and a V6 Vortec Saturday night.  It took him 6 tries.  The successful first ascent took a near full throtle effort!

Shane named the waterfall Ballerina Rock because it makes you dance around on the slick face of the rock!

Picture and video quality are poor because it was dark:

3 videos are located here

This video (1.24 MB) is the best of the 3.  It shows the last few feet of the sucessful ascent and gives you a good idea how much power Shane applied to get up!

I have always known that it would take a very determined, committed, fearless, heavy right foot kind of attack to get up this obstacle...  congrats to Shane!  :bowdown:
