Winter 4x4 Jamboree- Hurricane Ut

 
 
 
 
Beautiful morning sunrise.



 
 





First time I have ever seen anyone roll. It was an older guy that said he grabbed the wrong gear going up the hill g and it just flipped over- Shook me up pretty good. He banged his head pretty good but got in another jeep and finished the trail with us. He even got out and was spotting other people on the tricky parts along the way.









The couple in this jeep were going like a bat outta hell and did not know this sand hill had a drop off. We came up on this right after it happened. In the pictures below you can see he jumped it in the air. There were no tire tracks behind him. Some people watched it happen and said he flew about 30 to 40 feet and did a nose dive. The horn was going off and they were just trying to get out when we pulled up. The air bags went off and everything was all shook up. In the picture below you can see the silver clamp thing on the dash in the front window, well it was in the rear of the Jeep under a 35inch spare tire. It came loose and flew into the front. They are just lucky that it did not hit them or things could have been a lot worse. I noticed as I was taking pictures that the parts underneath the Jeep Cherokee  looked brand new. The drivers dad said the kid had just got it all built the week before. Pretty sad and scary experience.
















Winner....Winner 2nd time winning a nice prize at the raffle.
