I would too. I think it would be fascinating.

In the southern desert area of the Coronado, the Diabla Roo (Devil's Breath) about 200 klicks south of the American-Mexican border, once you get across the Coronado, I changed the boggers out from the sand-scarp running, to the narrow tires and chains on the back, and go through a place quite like what you've shared above. VEX does really well.

Last weekend we had two places up a ridge, sorta like your shot, but with moss on the rocks and not as narrow, and again watching the other two radical and very capable rigs traffic that spot was great in study. Again, the narrow tires and chains on the rear excelled.

I agree with you and I hope there is a way that many on this board could be on one of the JV runs or such to see this. I'd love to see this too.

Thanks for that awesome pic. Rough spot indeed.
