The easiest way to get into a magazine is to do crazy stupid things in your Jeep. Unfortunately that’s the best way to ruin your Jeep, too, so make sure the cameras are around when you do it. It had been at least a week or two since we had gotten out of the office to go ’wheeling and over a month since we had been on a real road trip to catch some action. So we jumped at an invitation from Clifton Slay of Avalanche Engineering to visit Carnage Canyon near Boulder, Colorado, and Patriot in the Independence Trail System near Colorado Springs. Carnage Canyon has several bypasses that allow less modified Jeeps pass the tougher sections, but there are plenty of obstacles to keep built Jeeps busy. Patriot is just plain nasty. You don’t want your Jeep to be too wide but you don’t want it to be too narrow either. There are several ledges and a good possibility for body damage. Clifton has been known to give us the kind of action our cameras like so we figured a whole crew of his buddies would certainly keep our trigger fingers busy. Here’s what we saw.
