Hi All,
I attended the Jeep Adventure Academy this weekend at the Hollister Hills SVRA on Saturday. Really great day for beginners! The trails we tackled in the AM were on the edge of most folks' comfort zone, without being too dangerous. The Jamboree team mentioned that they get in a few days early to each venue, and decide on what local runs will test the "trail-rated" vehicles with minimal potential for damage or accident. We did some hill descents that got us up on 3 wheels, and saw the team swing into action, rescuing a Jeeper stuck on a REALLY steep hill at the worst possible angle. Took two Gladiators to get him out. The afternoon was spent on an obstacle course, testing out side hill crawls, rock gardens, some washes. I managed to get up on 2 wheels at one point on the wash. Great spotting advice from the guys as well when we walked the course.
