Slickrock?
No, we didn't suddenly end up in Moab. Though not made of
sandstone, like its namesake in Utah, this obstacle seems
like it's one giant piece of rock. We weren't the first
gang there, so it was pre-slicked from the water and mud
at the bottom. |
This
CJ from another group seemed to try and try forever.

With
a "fresh" tire after Fain's Ford, the Blazer
walked right up.

While
I was stuck on the hill below, Sheldon was trying Slickrock
|
Surprisingly,
though, his hybrid had some troubles.
|
The
wet bottom really is extremely slick. Gassing it is the
only way to get going.
|
Once
you get started, though, you need to stay in it. There's
a crack on the right and a drop on the left to throw you
if you miss your line.
