I was a little worried pulling up on that bank in the last two pictures, because the "path" there (which is actually an unpaved rural highway) slopes out, and is going down a hill. The last thing I wanted to do was flop, so I figured that was as high as I should go. I want to know how high I could have gone, or if I could have gotten totally up on the bank..but I don't really want to know at the same time....

Here are a few other pictures of the X/road...



Going up the hill..you can see it's pretty steep...



Shot of the road going down the hill, before it gets steep. You can see how its a right hand curve....


Rural highways meeting at the top of the hill...(the first four pictures in my previous post were taken here)


Driving up the hill...(crappy cell phone video)


As you can see, I wouldn't recommend driving the 55mph speed limit on this part of the road...

I love this road, cause nobody ever goes on it. It's my personal little playgound

There's a place I know about, where the dirt road runs out, and we can try out the 4 wheel drive..come on now, what do you say?
I've got the perfect place in mind, it's in the middle of nowhere, only one way to get there, you got to get a little mud on the tires.
