Default BullsJK's Hell's Gate Vid

Watching this makes me as anxious as when we were on this trail.

Nice job, BullsJK!

One of the best JK videos I've seen. I really felt that I was there watching and got some sense of how steep that section must be. Excellent

When someone is doing that, there has to be several occasions through the course of the climb that they are wishing they would not have attempted it. When they make it to the top without tumbling to their demise though, i bet its a great feeling.

Great video! Looks like a lot of fun....

Was anyone else annoyed when the second spotter started chiming in? Nothing worse that two people shouting different instructions!

In this instance no, not at all. I was calling it (thats me in the red top) and then I was out of position to really call it as well. That was also the first time I had been there and I was happy to defer to a more experienced person.

For me, this isn't a trail to be macho on, whether you're driving or spotting.

And bullsjk knew to follow our second spotter at that point.

It was a good thing here.

It's ironic how it always looks different, easier and fun from the spotter's prospective while the driver looks nervous, pained and uncertain...but in the end joyous they made it through.
