That was pretty steep but short. Hells gate down and up was much longer both ways. I couldn't take a pic on the way down because I was by myself. Once I got to the bottom and saw the climb on the other side my thoughts were different. At that point you're committed to going up. I was then trying to figure out WTF what I doing down here in the first place......It wasn't that bad once you get past the mental part of it and trusting your equipment.

I couldn't agree more...my Scrambler is the one at the bottom in the picture. We'd done stuff with similar drops and climbs all day, but this one, all in one, was mentally one of the most difficult of the day...especially if you've watched some of the videos of people rolling backwards down this. The rolls are usually from a bad spotter (or not paying attention), we had a great spotter Zack/MoabCJ8. I didn't lift a tire going up....now Raymond was a different issue (Pictures to follow), he seemed to like the drama.
 
If someone has some video of that from the side or bottom, I'd love to see it! Still can't imagine my old Scrambler going down that thing. Were you laying on the brakes??? Is it safe to assume you went down really slowly?

Awesome stuff! Do they still let folks drive up Lions Back? I did that back in 1991 in my CJ7, I'll see if I can dig up the photos, what a rush (with a pucker factor of 9+) :thumbsup:

Sometime back they started charging you $10 to cross private property to get to Lion's Back. Then as I understand it, some anti-off-road person offered the owner a substantial price for that property. I haven't seen anybody on it for maybe five years. Happened about the same time lower Helldorado was closed.

I never felt the tire come off of the ground on that one but damn that's sexy... ;)

From my pictures, you lifted a front tire 3 times coming up. Once on the left and twice on the right. This is last time you did it on the climb.

I was just trying to give the people sitting up top some entertainment, y'all made it look too easy:thumbsup::wave:

And besides, I got confused, I thought Zac's daughter was spotting on this one:rolleyes::rotfl::thumbsup:

THANKS AGAIN, ZAC, for all your great help/spotting:bow:
