I can try to dig up some pics but I don't have many. This trail is actually fairly moderate on the hardcore end. There are a couple spots near the end that'll prove to be a challenge for anybody running smaller than 37's but in a YJ with a 100" wb we made it through no problem until the exit. The exit would've been cake except we had blown out a hub on 21 Road the day before and only had 3 wheel drive. The exit is basically a big shelf/step you need to crawl over.
This trail is very well organized and has excellently placed/identified winch points at all of the onbstacles. An XJ with 35's and front/rear lockers will make short work ok it but still be challenged, and if you're aggressive and aren't worried about your rockers or rear lower quarters an XJ on 33's could have a really fun day. That being said I wouldn't hit this trail with out front and rear lockers and a winch, especially if running a tire less than 37" tall. If you're not double locked you will be winching at the last to obstacles and there is a good chance you'll be scrapping your belly over the exit. By that I mean pretty much garaunteed.
If I make it down I will have no problem playing lead or tail on this one. It's a fun one and I'll be down there running it he end of June so will have fresh experience with it too.
