Sorry no Rover’s in this one either, but there is a clip of my H2 failing to make an obstacle you may enjoy. I promise to have something other than H2s and Hummers in the next one. Like Steve’s video it’s just about having fun wheeling, not a brand thing.

Some of those trees are a bit close together, did you guys get through unscathed?

I did see the rock but figured I would give it a shot. 2 of the H1s got stuck on it an had to be winched off. One of them bent a rim and lost all the air in the tire. Getting two H1s unstuck and then changing a wheel, that was a fun 1 1/2 hours!

Trees were close but i'm getting used to that now (this is Colorado). No visible damage (it's all underneath).



After a grand total of 7 off-road trips ever, maybe I am getting brave enough to play with the Rovers now?

Cool video, it looks like it was a fun trip.

You should avoid running over small trees and bushes. Greenies love to use that as justification for closing trails.

Mike I know where your comming from and agree. That small pine tree was fine, I just bent it over a bit. Bad spotter.

Alec,

Sweet video!

Just curious, what software did you use to do the video editing?

Kristopher. The free stuff that came with Windows XP. It's called Windows Movie Maker. I upgraded it to version 2.0 which is also free.
