<<<<< AND THEN IT HAPPENED>>>>>
Durring A Trail Run At Lefthand Canyon In Boulder Colorado We Came Across A Young Man In A Stock Jeep YJ Who Had Become Stuck On A Side Hill Paralell To The Trail... He Was In Serious Danger Of Rolling Over And He Flagged Us Down.... As We Were Attempting To Hook A Line To Him The Bank Gave Away Lifting The Rear Or The Ranger In The Air And Causing It To Roll Over 2 1/2 Times Coming To Rest On Its Top.. After The Panic And The Rush To Make Sure Shwan Was UnInjured We Enlisted The Help Of A Fellow Wheeler To Not Only Right The Ranger But To Also Finish Extracting The Jeep... Once The Ranger Was Back On All Four It Was Time To Assess Damages..
And It Looked Like This , Drivetrain Was All Intact And In Good Working Order, Roof Was Severely Dented And Crushed In On Passanger Side Winshield Was Destroyed But Still Intack For The Most Part , Finally We Went To Work On Engine...Other Than Some Spilled Fluids That We Promptly Topped Off All Seemed To Be In Good Working Order...Finally We Tried It It Fire And Ran On First Crank Other Than A Little Smoke Everything Seemed Fine... So We Taped Up The Winshield and Strapped It Down And Decided To Limp It Toard Home...YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE LOOK ON ALL THOSE LIBERAL BRICKENSTOCK WEARING PEOPLE AS WE ROLLED THROUGH DOWNTOWN BOULDER IN THAT CONDITION...Finally We Stopped In Castle Rock To Call A Trailer And Avoid The Over 100 Mile Highway Trek Home |
