Project-JK Rubicon Run in a Day
actually, our son normally takes all our pics but, he was hanging out with the inlaws in tahoe so, these pics were taken by yours truly 
naw, the jeepers jamboree does the drunken orgy thing - this was the jeep jamboree usa leading this crazy group of europeans/aussie through. from what i hear, they charged $2500 per person too. 
wow, a flat fender and 30's
actually, i could see how something small and narrow would be an advantage in a lot of spots though. i'm sure the trails up in your neck of the woods are just as fun


Best pictures of the Rubicon I have seen in a long time. Its hard to believe 40 years ago I used to run the Rubicon in my flat fender with 30" tires and no lockers. Wish I could have been with you.
August 8,9, we were running the Whiplash trail in B.C. See the Western Canada thread for pictures.

Yeah, in fact I believe when they did the big inaugural JK run with all of the press people they did it over at least two days (maybe three?). I think they had like 30 stock Rubicons for that one though.
We did the Rubicon that following weekend, and had a blast !
Eddie < thanks for the info on some of the other trails . ... Very cool!!
We did meet the Austrailians in the stock JKs . . . crazy!
I hope to post some pics sometime soon.
Thanks again

My uncle claims to have done the whole rubicon in just 3 1/2 hours. That was some time back, and the trail is lot really the same now as it was then. There were sections that were like freeway, then.
Yes Uncle has been know to exagerate, but he also claims to have witnesses.
He has made it from Rubicon Springs to the Tahoe side staging area in 1 1/2 hours more recently. (He had to pick up the band and no doubt get more booze for the Dirty Dozen's Midnight run.)
