Project-JK : 2011 JK Experience Rocky Mountain Run

Here's a nice shot of the survivors at the end of Carnage Canyon in Buena Vista Colorado.
Boy do you guys need to learn how to pick a line. We take YJ's, TJ's, CJ's & JK's up to Holy Cross City without having to use winches. Using either side of the French Creek crossing and no tires larger then 35's and many with 33's. 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. You guys "powering up" the obstical is what tears up out trails. A dose of finesse and less power gets the job done without giving food to the greenies who want to close all the trails.
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!!

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!
