This picture was courtesy of my "Disaster Cam", a point and shoot camera that I left in the truck for a few years. Upon developing the film, I discovered the camera had quit functioning about 2/3 through the roll.
This is Randy and me competing in the 1998 BFG Rock Crawling Championship in Las Cruces, NM. Believe it or not, we paused simply to take this photo, and then continued to drive up the obstacle unhindered by the rough terrain. Randy and I were dismayed that we made it, and later analyzed that the wheelbase must have been just right to allow this seemingly impossible feat to be accomplished!.

Posing for a picture about half way up. Unfortunately, after this picture I negligently switched film and accidentally double exposed several shots.
Thank God for a strong parking break... This picture also illustrates the need for the straps which can be seen holding everything in place.
After a fluke film loading accident, the Blazer narrowly escaped the crushing jaws of this giant Tellico trail dog!!!

The blazer made it up and down Guardrail with no problems.

Patrick at the helm...
The road wasn't too rough, so we decided to let Tiger practice backing. Unfortunately, his little paws were having difficulty working the heavy-duty clutch..
It was pretty steep here, so Patrick helped hold the truck in place while posing for a quick snapshot...
