Pritchett canyon and cakewalk do not belong in the same sentence.

Don't think I didn't consider it on some of that crazy super off camber stuff, I figured maybe my 200 pound butt might be all thats keeping this sucker from going over, so I stayed put, Lol!

Those guys rock! I felt a little more at ease when I realized they did'nt even have their hands up, they just kept saying your ok, keep coming. We'd be hard pressed to find better guys to wheel Moab with.

Sure they do. I've done the whole trail with 90% of the harder lines. Son of Rock pile and that real steep ledge that you go to the right to get around are the only lines I havn't taken. The reason my rig was built so long, is because of Rock Pile.

Agreed that with some tread on the tires and a working front locker, we could have probably gotten Tom's rig up the rest of the obstacles unassisted. He MAY have been able to do them anyway with some more rocks and more of the skinny pedal - but I think he was wise to stop pushing it at the point he did. Sometimes taking the line is much preferred to broken parts.
I should be able to post some vids pretty soon. After editing out all the dead space I could, we have a pretty solid hour and a half of footage. I have a DVD burned, but it is not finalized. Plus the DVD drive on my computer is on shrooms or something, so I can't do it here right now. As usual, video does no justice to the size of the obstacles. Plus I was standing right in the way of the camera on No Right Turn when Sean was coming down...sorry, Sean
