Well you’re welcome, we had a blast! Such a great week! Confidence in your equipment, your training and your spotter are key. It’s easier to take on the challenges when you have that confidence!

I hope you have 4dr it more forgiving ,,,, with the two door you need perfect line ,,, it why a good spotter it crucial and follow it,,,,, I need to do it again because my only memories of it,,,,, is I was watching my spotter like I have sniper scope and I did not want to miss any direction ,,,, and also I was doing so slow because I did not want to have delay between the direction and my reaction ,,,,, next time I will a little faster and more enjoyable,,,,,,

The entry to Hell's gate is also pretty sketchy ,,,,, and when you start is no turning back,,,,

The video give a good idea of it look like ,,,, but video never give 100% justice for the perception,,,,,

I recommend to park at the bypass and go look someone do the entry and then go see Hell's gate from the top,,,,,

This is funny story the guy behind me is a very very good off-roader his rig is Early Bronco manual and with carburetor the Manuel by itself is not the problem but the carburetor want to stall when it incline or hit bump,,,, the gas don't burn smoothly when it happen he need to give more gas for not stalling and play with the clutch to not gain speed real challenge,,,,

Just before the gate II was asking him if he was going to do Hell's gate and he say ,,, not sure he don't know anything about it ,,,,,, I was trying to make him go first ,,,, and told it a pretty good obstacle to him and also I never see it in person either but I see some video ,,,, what people say the entry is sketchy,,, he still did not move ,,,,, I toughs he don't want to do it,,,,, for me It on my buck list also ,,,,, I was going to do it no matter what ,,, it just I would preferred follow someone and observe ,,,,,, he did not move then OK my time to shine then ,,,, right away he follow me,,,, when we arrived at the bottom he was very happy he toughs the obstacle was over and he say WOW this is not what he consider a little bit sketchy and happy it over,,,, I start laughing and say this is not the main obstacle it a little bit further we almost their ,,,,,,,,, the moral of the story go walk their first and see it ,,,, because video don't exactly give justice,,,,,

I will post eventually the video of the EB it make it look so easy it deceiving he his a pro I ride a lot with him after that ,,,,, ya we both stupid no fear ,,,, his for sure better driver then me

When you do Hell's gate please DM me I want to see it,,,,,
Hey Moab6g, I do indeed have a 2-dr manual coming, so I will take your insights and ensure that I have a good spotter to help me through, as it will be my first time.

You were fortunate to be able to crawl with a pro and learn from him, good on you. I look forward to your video of the EB.

I will also take your suggestion to park at the bypass and watch a couple of trucks do the entrance and watch a couple from the top too.

I am very familiar with how video never makes it look as difficult as it is, so I will be cautious when I first do it. And yes, I will dm you when I actually do it.

I am hoping to get my truck this spring/summer and then a trip to Moab will be planned for this fall!

Awesome ,,,, I wish they have offer the Bronco 2dr manual with the 2.7 and Sasquatch that will have been my First choice,,,,, The crawler gear should be perfecct,,,,,

DM on Instagram me the day you do it ,,,, I might be there to see it

Now a non-pro did it with stock 2dr maybe we will see more people like you do it,,,,

What trail you did so far in Moab,,, amd tell me what type of rig you did with?

If I have the crawler gear I will be stupid n'off to do the dance "kiki Do you love me",,,,,, on the way up between the two off camber point,,,,LOL

One of the crazy aspect is are you will to risk your rig for Body damage and potential rollover,,,,
right now with all the short supply it will be hard to fix ,,,, or get another one,,,,,

I only have it for 4 month ,,,, I almost lost it in trail in Cherokee in the first month ,,,, it was pretty stupid of me to try it without a winch to come down,,,, I post a small portion of that video on my social media you can at the end of the video how close to the edge I was and with tire full of clay,,,,, I will post other video of it when I keep sliding few feet and manage to stop it ,,,, but very sketchy because if the Bronco gain a little bit more momentum nothing will stop it to go all the way down,,,,,

I am on my home ,,,, I will be able to post more video next week,,,

The line is so important at that spot for the 2dr

I believe this is 2dr Badland with more flex then me and a professional driver

But more off camber line make more drama and better pics and video,,,,,,LOL
and if you roll you might become TikTok famous ,,,,,LOL

Be cautious could trigger hard attack also,,,,,,

Hey moab6g, I certainly do not want to be TikTok famous for rolling my Bronco! I would rather have far fewer likes and make the climb cleanly than end up famous!

Luckily, I do have a strong heart, and a healthy sense of adventure, so I should be good when I successfully complete the climb. I don't anticipate having a heart attack, unless I happen to become famous on TiKTok, lol.

I did watch your short vid on the trail in Cherokee and yes that was a little slick. Glad you were able to stay on the trail!

Enjoy...

Nobody want to be TicTok famous that way,,,,,,, But it a decent consolation price I guess that might help you in pinch for GoFundMe,,,,,,,,,,,,,lol

When I grow up we did not have YouTube or titoki or easy access of recording cameras no proof on tape of all the stupid thing we did,,,,, the only evidence we have back then is the xray of the hospital of the breaking bone ,,,,,,,LOL

Steve definitely took the more exciting line, though I don't think he meant to. If you watch his spotter, he was a little slow getting his line adjusted. Fun to watch though!

That looks scary. I don't even like driving on mountain roads.
Yeah it’s not the first trial you’d want to attempt! Not that you couldn’t do it, I just think most people want to work up to the steep angles and large drop offs along this one.

You ask a very good question, when will I get my Bronco. According to the dealership, last December, but when I ordered it last April, I thought at least a year was realistic. So, here I am a year into my wait, and still no build date and I remain patient as I know that it will arrive eventually. Though I do hope sooner rather than later.
As to B.C., the terrain is very rugged and dramatic. Quite a bit different from Utah to say the least. However, it is certainly challenging and well worthwhile trying, as you saw in the video's from "the story until now".
My present vehicle is a Ford Ranger but stock. Surprisingly capable, but not up to what the Bronco will be able to do once I put some upgrades into it.
So, I remain positive...
