Wow.
I knew it was treacherous.

all you do is put your left tires on the wall and keep as level as possible and then just slide on down

That was the plan.


I was never able to conquer Bob from the bottom, when I stumbled across the top approach, one day out exploring at the end of a Sunday afternoon, I made a decision to attempt it. From the top down.
I was to the left, tried to bring the passenger front up over the crack, but it didn't come up when I needed it to. Before i knew it, I was teetered into the wedge, applied a little throttle hoping to pop it up, and heard the BAM!
Birfield. Tried backing, tried scooching foward, stuck.
Much to my relief there were other's wheeling. much to my chagrin, they all drove Heeps. I got flamed on jeepaholics. The guy that winched me , blew his Dana 30 drivers side setting up his approach.
Quite an experience.
Never had another opportunity.
Just waiting for the tribes to all get along and open that bad boy up again.
How you 'sposed to know what your limitations are, till you exceed them.
