It looks so tame in the video. I think that was the infamous Italian trap. Maybe I just took an easy line?

It is only dangerous if you suffer an injury. Breakage is all a part of wheelin' The harder you run something, the more likely you are to break something. I have been towed in a few times in the FJ40 One time I hit the charleau gap step so hard I jumped the top and cleared the top obstacle rock by 2 feet. I did not know I broke a rear axle until I got to the cabin and my wheel passed me. (no that is not me in this pic)

It also has a bypass, and a round about bypass. The harder bypass used to have a rock at the top preventing a fast run.. at least until Steve ran into it 4 times in a row with his Landcruiser. Now it sits at the bottom, hindering the escape route.

I can't even find that trail from the north. I did run it a couple times that way, but with direction from a buddy.
