MAN!! I had forgotten how insane the last waterfall obstacle was in Carnage Canyon. That was incredible getting to be a part of the event. And congratulations again Nemesis on being one of the three JK's to complete that canyon

Here's a nice shot of the survivors at the end of Carnage Canyon in Buena Vista Colorado.

Well, the thread bump by the Grayfox scolding has reminded me why I like living in Colorado so much. I never made it past French Creek in my 2.5 lift 34" Rubi, but that just meant I got to ride in a sweet buggy the rest of the day.

Excellent pictures as always, and in 2012 I gotta DRIVE MORE TRAILS!!

Oh self-righteous one, please forgive those of us who are incapable of wheeling to your supreme standards and perfection. Clearly, we should never have attempted to use our Jeeps, let alone run any trail without first seeking the preaching from a self-professed wheeling god like yourself. Please offer "us guys" a complete write-up of yourself on this trail, with detailed photos showing just how awesome of a wheeler you are so that we can use our imagination and assume just how "little power" you use to climb obstacles. With any luck, we can be just as awesome as you.

The FMCA 4 Wheelers do Carnage Canyon without any breakage and I and a couple of others have not had to winch out on special occasions.
My sincerest apology to the self-rightous one - clearly our time on Carnage Canyon was not blessed as a "special occasion". Being that you are a wheeling god that is so kind to preach at us, we would be grateful if you could please show us photos or a video of YOU running Carnage Canyon, without any breakage and without having to winch out.

I love this thread. The pics and stories are amazing. I hope one day I can benefit from the experience of wheeling with the JK Experience crew. You guys truly inspire me to want to go out and carefully test the limits of my Jeep and my nerves. While all the JK's on this epic journey amazed me at how well they performed, I was truly amazed at how well the Falken Wilpeak tires did on such a tough trail. I run a set of Wildpeaks on my JK and although they don't look beefy and aggressive, they always get me through the trail.

Thanks for sharing your amazing journey!

Tony
