Re: Ouray in July
Posted: Sun Jul 27, 2014 7:57 amI think you scared him off after the trip to Moab. Nothing kills the off-roading fun more than falling off a cliff backwards in a improperly immobilized rental jeep.

Sorry if any pics are repeated, but in my defense I never claimed to be a smart feller.

Re: Ouray in July
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2014 10:21 pmProbably one of the most poignant episdoes of that trip.
In essence, Randall had rented a jeep to run Moab with his family. We were on an outcropping and he left the engine running and jumped out to get something. Apparently on a 15 degree slope, even in drive, jeeps are going to roll and thus preceded to go backwards over a precipice 2000ft above the Colorado river. Fortunately his mom managed to get the brake on before they took the plunge, but not before his bro and wife tried to extricate themselves from the rear of a two door jeep with the top up.
Hilarious...

Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2014 12:34 pmActually, what happened was, I left the Jeep in gear, as I have done many times in the past. One of the passengers in the vehicle reached over and turned the key off for some reason, which is why it started to roll backwards.
