Default Wheeling in Hawaii...

Hey HF,

So we went up to a place called Peacock Flats for an easy run with Rod, President of the Hummer X Club in Las Vegas who rode with Big Mike and his H2, a GMC Canyon and myself. Here's some shots of the run.


Big Mike checking out my 45 degree angle at an attempt to climb this hill. Just to give you an idea on the angle I was in, he's 6.5. The cool thing was, I'm pretty sure my H3 would've have made it. You can see the attempt of the video here: climbing attempt..


A pic taken from my video camera...


Half way up, if you look good that's the entrance to the trails.


Big Mike's H2


Da Boyz.


Hero shot!


Hero shot of Brandon's GMC.


Rear climb...


Looking down...


Still a little clean..


Ummm...yeah we were being extra careful when we walked around this area...


Taking a break..

I think you could have made it with a little more speed. Did anyone else try it?

Thanks Dennis, the trails there are quite tough. But as you can tell we stayed on the easy path. On the way down one of the guys stumbled 20 feet into the valley. The rest of the drivers were winching him up. [:@]

Nope, only me. It did feel like I was going to flip over though but once my front got over the top my rear was ready to go!

Inked - that's good stuff - you gave me a reason to smile I really came by on accident - not a lot of heavy wheeling here...(again, that's fine - everyone can do whatever they want with theirs

I may make it back more often - awesome video link too...thanks for pics...
