  • Late afternoon we got a call for a broken RZR at the bottom of Hamburger Hill. So Mike and I ran in in the LJ to see if we could just pull it out before sundown. We got in there pretty quick and decided to go ahead and dead pull it out. The LJ did really well and everything went fairly smooth. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

    I've driven several of the trails I see on TM, and I can't for the life of me imagine doing any of them while pulling another vehicle. Rory's driving is incredible.

      The mental overload of trying to focus to run the brakes on a 10’ gap down a mountain, while having to run a new line that my brain won’t be able to process until I’m well past the obstacle. A line thats in Rory’s brain clearly, You’re trying to follow perfectly, without running into him for the world to see. And still have the sense to drive around rocks and not over them when Rory’s brain is clearly expecting you too. People would buy tickets for that thrill

I'm also impressed at how Rory can give line instructions simply by looking in his outside mirror! And the Jeep did really well over the rock slide- that terrain looked extremely rugged! One of the better videos!

    I have been watching your channel for a while now, both you guys and the MORR team "showcase" the rescues of side by sides. I'm noticing that most larger UTVs are capable but not really durable for your environment. I am leaning toward renting a Jeep to tour that area versus a side by side. Holy Moly beautiful area! Thank you all.

    I swear, you guys have got to have some mountain goat in your DNA. Great job guys.

    Mike & Rory that was an epic recovery. As folks her pointed out, that trail was challenging to drive but towing a dead vehicle out... Great driving, great camera work and great commentary/conversation! I'm so glad Matt suggested to not just clip a GoPro to the fender. ;) Excellent video guys.

    I love seeing the desert with clear skies and sharp shadows, this time of year. The sculpted bedrock is like a playground, regardless of your mode of travel.
