Just to play the advocate here, I've been out to Rausch several times with people who had no rails at all. They all were VERY careful and all make it out without a scratch. That being said, anything can happen no matter how careful you are and how good your spotter is. But I'm a compulsive enabler so I had to say something

Fantastic. With the right encouragement, everything is possible..

This was my last 'Yeah, I'll be fine' moment at Rausch. I was fine.

Yes winch hill. Good spot. I know it's close to the lot but we didn't hit it last time. I'd like to get down on some if that action but I also wanna take the doors off and I'm sure with all the recent rain it'll be pretty deep over there.

Yeah I'm not doing it again till I get a snorkel. The water line in my airbox was a little too high for comfort so I'll be content to watch if we get there tomorrow.
