My question here is did anyone see the flops coming and try to prevent them or were these attempts to achieve without using caution?  In other words, were these preventable?  While some flops are inevitable, not listening or using caution can put many folks in harms way.  I just want to make sure all "caution" bases were covered.

I know Mark said he was hitting a tough spot too hard and he should have taken another route.

ehhh, for me i guess i just chose the wrong line out of inexperience. as soon as my tire went off the ledge, i dont think i couldve gotten out of it cause the jeep was leaning driver side a foot off the ground. a min. later was when we actually hit the ground.

I wasn't there, but my take on what I have read is that if you are willing to flop, no matter why or how it happened...............................have fun.  Just don't put anyone else in an unsafe position.  :)  Whether these flops were caused by impatience, not heeding a warning by a spotter or simply not paying attention, the natural consequence is damage to the vehicle.  Glad it wasn't me.  :)

Glad everyone had fun and didnt get hurt. I really want to get back up there. I had to attend my nephews birthday party at Fort Yargo. Then we went to the Aquarium with my wifes family. I am in for the next trip there. I have some unfinished business with a certain hill.

careful now, that hill isnt what it use to be. Last I remember it was just dirt all the way up. Now there is some smaller rock ledges to go with it!
