The Rubicon Trail in Reverse **Rubicon Springs to Loon Lake**
We're continuing on with our annual 4th of July 2021 Rubicon Run which happened to be the same weekend as Rubithon. This video completes the adventure as we wheel back to Loon Lake from Rubicon Springs. This is our third and last day of wheeling The Rubicon. All in all the trip was successful without breakage and lot of fun. Camping at The Springs is always a good time, maybe a little too much. Can make for an interesting morning the next day!

Cadillac Hill on The Rubicon Trail to Observation Point 2021 #rubicon
We're continuing on with our annual 4th of July 2021 Rubicon Run which happened to be the same weekend as Rubithon. This video continues the adventure as we take on Cadillac Hill in our 1990 Jeep Wrangler YJ. We take a break at the top and enjoy the view from Observation Point. Cadillac Hill is not what I remember. It's been few years since running it, but I remember it being more difficult.
It's a great quick trip if you're spending the day in Rubicon Springs and just want to do something not too crazy.

Sierra Trek 2021 --What's Air Pressure????? Long, 12 Hour Day...Helicopters and More.
We signed up for this year's Sierra Trek on The Fordyce Trail in Northern CA. It was our first time ever doing an organized run, but not the first time we've run Fordyce. It has been about 9 years since running it in our 1990 Jeep YJ Wrangler and probably more than 13 years prior to that. The JK has never been on it and I have never been in the driver's seat on this trail.
Fordyce Trail is a HARD trail - probably harder than The Rubicon Trail. I preferred Fordyce over The Rubicon because it has a lot less off camber spots.
We started the trail around 6:30 am and as you'll see, we encountered some situations that left us on the trail for 12 hours before we made it to Meadow Lake.
Sierra Trek was a great experience and was very well organized. (Besides actually finding the trailhead.)

It's Time For A Little TLC For The Jeep JKU!
So far this year, the JKU has gone through some rough trails and it's time for some love! After months and months and months, the JKU is FINALLY getting some much needed TLC! We ordered new Tube Fenders several months ago and have been on back order. We originally purchased different fenders but got tired of waiting so we ordered these from DV8 Off Road. They are pretty awesome so far but feel a little thin. Guess we'll find out how they hold up.
As an added bonus, we bought armor for the rear corners from EVO Manufacturing. So Awesome!
Please check out Carnage4x4 Adventures channel for the upcoming installation video: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXUN-KAUJGFaBj7k4P3EOYQ
We're heading to Sierra Trek on the Fordyce trail in Northern CA and it will be our first trip there ever with the JK.
Thanks so much for watching and please consider subscribing so we can keep doing this and more often!

**THE RUBICON TRAIL** Buck Island to Rubicon Springs
We're continuing on with our annual 4th of July Rubicon Run which happened to be the same weekend as Rubithon. This video continues the adventure from Buck Island Lake through Big Sluice and onto the Rubicon Springs where we camp for 2 nights. Continue to follow along on our Rubicon adventure where we continue with Cadillac Hill and then turn around and go all the way back to Loon Lake. We trailer our green stickered YJ - so all the way in and then all the way back out!

We're continuing on with our annual 4th of July Rubicon Run which happened to be the same weekend as Rubithon. This video continues the adventure from Ellis Creek to the beginning of Old Sluice. Obstacles included in this video are Walker Hill, Soup Bowl and Little Sluice. I do have a separate video of just Little Sluice as well.

**THE RUBICON TRAIL** THE GATEKEEPER TO ELLIS CREEK
The Rubicon Trail - When starting the trail at Loon Lake, The Gatekeeper is the first obstacle (area) you'll encounter. We ran our annual 4th of July run on The Rubicon and this video covers The Gatekeeper through The Bowl and onto Ellis Creek.
Please keep an eye out for future videos of our recent run. We completed the trail from Loon Lake to the Rubicon Springs, up Cadillac hill and back out Loon. I have separated the videos into different sections of the trail to include Little Sluice, Old or Middle Sluice, Soup Bowl, The Rubicon Springs, etc.

The Beauty of Rubicon Springs * Best Camping Spot on The Rubicon Trail*
The Rubicon Trail is best known for it's incredible four wheeling for all types of vehicles and skill levels. This is a simple video of the amazing beauty of and surrounding The Rubicon Springs. Beautiful landscape that makes for gorgeous views, relaxation and cooling off in the water during the Summertime. Great area to take a day off from wheeling and enjoy nature's finest. Or a little relaxation then wheel up Cadillac and back just in time for more r&r.
Please note that this is private property and camping is $20 per night / per vehicle.
Be sure to check schedules of the area as there are numerous events during prime wheeling season.
Also, watch for snakes around this area. We did have a baby rattlesnake outside our tent at the Dirty Dozen Campground one year. This year we saw a snake in the water right near the shore that actually swam over my dogs paw as he was lying there. (It wasn't a rattler..)

Bypass Indian Trail & Try "Old Sluice" Instead - The Rubicon Trail
"Old Sluice" - or often times called "Middle Sluice" - is a trail in the middle of The Rubicon that is often bypassed. If starting The Rubicon from Loon Lake, Old Sluice is after Little Sluice and before you get to Buck Island. Instead of taking Indian Trail (which is basically an off-camber trek up or down a granite mountain), try this trail.
Old Sluice will definitely keep you on your toes with some tight, pinchy spots. Damage is possible if proper lines aren't taken. I took some incorrect lines that Carnage4x4 Adventures had to help me out of. I think it's a fun trail. It's much quieter because not many people go this way. We went during Rubithon and had the whole trail to ourselves. It also offers some much needed shade in areas whereas Indian Trail is just a big wide open space.(Although it has pretty views.)
Thanks for watching! Please let me know what I can do better. I know I need to wheel better, but I'm novice. If I don't feel comfortable, then Carnage4x4 Adventures will take the wheel. Better safe than sorry imo.

Ready to Take on Little Sluice on The Rubicon Trail? Here's What it Looks Like Today...
We recently took our annual 4th of July run through The Rubicon. This video specifically shows the section of Little Sluice. Most people like to bypass this obstacle, but it really isn't anything crazy. Back in the day (like 25 years ago), it was MUCH different. Many of the big rocks have been blasted and loads and loads of small rocks were brought in.
If you're not interested in attempting Little Sluice, there are bypasses on both sides. Personally, I think the north side bypass is a lot harder than just running Little Sluice.
Thanks for watching!

***Poor Assembly*** DIY Body Armor Gen 3 Tube Doors on our Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited
I attempted to assemble Body Armor Gen 3 Tube Doors for our 2007 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited. Directions given were so poor and I couldn't even read them so I went online and downloaded some other ones. I thought this would be an easy project for me to do the initial assembly and then have Carnage4x4 Adventures help me with the actual install but I was mistaken. I am completely incapable of anything mechanical and this video proves it!
Once we made the necessary fixes the doors seemed to go on pretty well. We'll be wheeling The Rubicon in our next video, so that will be our first run with the new doors.
Just a note if you're looking to buy these, the rear door latch handles will face DOWN and the front door latch handles will face UPWARD. Not sure why they are different and the directions I went by did not mention anything about them being different.
Thanks so much for watching my poor attempt at being a mechanic and please consider subscribing! I promise I won't attempt things like this again!
Also check out Carnage4x4 Adventure's channel who actually knows what he's doing:

Ghost Towns of Nevada Part 3 - Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park - Ghost Town Nevada
This is the third installment of my Ghost Towns of Nevada series. Close to Ione, Nevada, we decided to explore the old ghost town of Berlin and the Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park. This town and park are very close to Ione, so if you're interested in one or the other, you may as well plan on visiting them both. Also near by is the old mining town of Grantsville.
Silver was discovered by prospectors in Berlin in 1863- later developing the town in 1896. Residents peaked at 250 people in its heyday but the boom would be short lived. By 1911 the town was abandoned as people moved on to other ventures. Below the town is a small cemetery of former town residents.
In 1928, fossils were discovered just above Berlin in an eroding hillside, thus becoming the Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park. Excavations unearthed 40 Ichthyosaurs and remained the largest number ever discovered worldwide until 2004. There is a fossil touring area if interested.
Take a drive to the middle of nowhere and checkout this interesting Ghost Town and State Park! Camping is also onsite for RV's and tents. Please check the website prior to travel as currently the park is closed. (Not sure why.)

VORRA Yerington 250 Desert Race - Memorial Day Weekend 2021
This weekend was the VORRA Yerington 250 desert race held in Yerington, Nevada. The course laps were approximately 50 miles long and laps ran ranged from 3-6 depending on the class.
Carnage4x4 Adventures and myself tackled the heat and dust to try and capture as many different areas as possible. We also tried to include as many rigs as we had footage of -sorry if we've missed anyone.
I appreciate you watching and please consider subscribing!

Poker Run at the VORRA Yerington 250 Desert Race May 29, 2021
We decided to enter the Poker Run during the Vorra Yerington 250 desert race on Memorial Day weekend 2021. This was our first ever Poker Run and we weren't sure what we were doing. The run itself was one lap of the race course (approximately 50 miles) with the final stop at the Chevron station in town. We started towards the end of the line, but ended up the last vehicle on the course. haha. We should have aired our tires down as it would have been a much more enjoyable ride.
It was a fun trip and we would definitely do it again! We didn't have the winning hand, but we didn't have the worst hand either. Our hand started out good but ended poorly.
Later that evening was the pre-race parade in town. Always fun to see everyone in one area excited for the next days race.
Thanks for watching! Please consider subscribing! And watch for the next video which will be the actual Yerington 250 Vorra race.

Ghost Towns of Nevada Part 1 - Pine Grove, Nevada
We took a break from beating up our Jeep's this weekend and decided to head out to Nevada in search of Ghost Towns. We stayed in Yerington and branched out from there. First on our list was the Ghost Town in Pine Grove, Nevada - which is about 25 miles from where we were staying.
Pine Grove was an old gold mining town that boasted 600 people and stretched a mile-long in its heyday. At the top of the town is the old cemetery. If you plan on visiting this ghost town, I highly recommend you visit the cemetery as it's my favorite part of this town.
On the next video we'll explore Ione, Nevada followed by the Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park as well as the old ghost town of Grantsville.

Ghost Towns of Nevada - Part 2- Ione, Nevada --Ghost Town Nevada
Somewhere in the middle of nowhere Nevada is an old mining town called Ione - "The Town That Refused To Die". In this second installment of our Ghost Towns of Nevada series, we explore the old town of Ione, Nevada. It came to existence in 1863 after silver was discovered in the Shoshone Range. It was also the first home of the Nye County seat - although that was short-lived.
The town currently still boasts a few residents, although the population is very sparse and nothing like it's highest population of 600. Some references state that there are still around 40 people living there. When we visited, it did not seem like that many people lived there, but who knows. We did not disturb anything that looked occupied.
Ione, NV is located in close proximity to the Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park, so if you're going to visit Ione, you better visit the State Park too! Also near here is the old town Grantsville.
If you are into ghost towns, check out my video for Pine Grove, NV:

Officially Broke BOTH Jeep's on Nasty Half @ Sand Hollow!
On this final day of wheeling at Sand Hollow State Park, we took the YJ on Nasty Half to redeem ourselves from the first day with the JK. Turns out the first obstacle that gave us issues on day one also beat us up on the last day. Well played Nasty Half - the trail earns its name. (Although the JK did make it a little further ;)...) I'd say this is more of a buggy trail than a big A$$ Jeep trial!

Triple 7 Trail @ Sand Hollow
Today we completed the rated 7 / 8 short trail - Triple 7 out at Sand Hollow near Hurricane, Utah. The Triple 7 Trail is an extremely short trail with not too many bi-passes but beautiful scenery. This isn't really a beginners trail, so keep that in mind if considering this one. As you'll see, a UTV ahead of us rolled in an off-camber section.
As you'll most likely notice as well, this trail was a bit too sketch for me so we left the JK at the beginning of the trail.
Thanks for watching! Please consider subscribing to my channel. Now that it's Summer, we'll be putting out a lot more content.

Unseen Moments & Why Sand Dunes Suck - AT SAND HOLLOW
This is our final video of our recent trip to Hurricane, Utah and Sand Hollow State Park.
There are unseen moments as well as a few highlights from previous videos.
We had a pretty intense moment in the Sand Dunes when the rear end of our Jeep kicked out as we were trying to drive up and almost rolled us. That was the first day and my initial observation of the dunes was not a pleasant one. I assume once you know the way out there, you know which lines to take but it can be pretty hairy initially.
Thanks for following us along on this journey! If you'd like to see our other Sand Hollow videos the links are below.

Double Sammy Trail @ Sand Hollow
We attempted the Double Sammy Trail in our Jeep Wrangler YJ and Jeep Wrangler JK @ Sand Hollow only to get lost. Double Sammy is a 7 rated trail. It is a bit confusing to find the trail after the initial few obstacles if you've never been there before. We had the downloadable map but it wasn't much help.
Would recommend going with someone who knows the trails out here if it’s your first time.
I believe there are guided outings you can take if you’re interested too.

Milt's Mile @ Sand Hollow
On this video we accomplish the trail 'Milt's Mile' @ Sand Hollow. At 2.6 miles (full loop), this is more of an easier trail and rated 7. It still has some decent climbs / descents with some off-camber areas - good for all skill levels. I'm not a fan of off camber as my driving skill isn't great, so Carnage 4x4 Adventures drove the JK through the nervy parts. Hopefully one day I won't be as nervous because in looking at the video, nothing looks as it did in person. ;) All in all, it is a good trail to start with if you're new to this area. The sand dunes can also get pretty interesting.
You can download avenza maps or All Trails to get the maps of the trails around Sand Hollow. They are kind of hard to follow, but maybe that's just me. We had trouble knowing where we were the whole time we were in Sand Hollow.

DIY Installing a Smittybilt Roll Cage for Jeep Wrangler 2007 - 2010
In this video we are installing a Smittybilt roll cage on our 2007 Jeep Wrangler JK. Be sure to read all directions before doing one yourself. The padding has to go on before installation as we found out after we were done. Roll cage installed - part #B76902 - 6 piece kit.
I was forced to help with this project, but it's my Jeep, so I guess it was okay. At least Sully got to join us. The install wasn't as bad as I expected. Everything kinda sorta fit, but some modifications had to be done. Good thing Carnage 4x4 Adventures knows what he's doing.

Husband Broke My Jeep @ Sand Hollow on Nasty Half Trail
Nasty Half Trail @ Sand Hollow - rated 9. We decided to take just the JK since our trip to Utah was delayed initially and wanted to 'test things out' on an easier trail. Also since we had the crawler hauler (40' trailer), we wanted to make sure there was parking available for it.
Check out the hauler here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfGYdD4xnRU
We thought we were heading up Double Sammy (rated 7) but was greatly mistaken. We tried using the Avenza Maps app but we were confused with what trail we were on.
Brand new soft top destroyed, fenders destroyed (although due to be replaced soon anyway), broken sway bar link and you'll see what else. All in an hour! First day of wheeling on our 9 day vacation.
We are grateful to some UTV's that were able to help us, as well as Carbon Off Road for getting us a new diff cover.

The Chute @ Sand Hollow
Wheeled our 1990 Jeep Wrangler on 44's up The Chute in Sand Hollow along with a few UTV's. Our big Jeep makes this obstacle look easy, but it isn't. Video doesn't do the obstacle justice whatsoever.

Prairie City OHV Park - 4x4 Obstacle Course - Folsom, CA
We took our Crawler Hauler on its maiden voyage prior to traveling to Sand Hollow along with our two Jeeps and truck camper to Prairie City OHV Park for a test run. Prairie City OHV Park has a 4x4 obstacle course for many different skill levels. This is a good spot if you're near the Sacramento / Sierra Nevada Foothills to test out modifications of your rigs. It's also a good place if you're learning how to 4 wheel. This has been the site of some Ultra 4 Off Road Racing competitions.
We went to the park later in the day and it seemed like a good time to go since many other people seemed to be heading out. I am just learning how to 4-wheel, so the less people the better - although there was one guy who thought he had to share the same obstacle as us at the same time. All the other obstacles were available!
And the best part - It only costs $5 to enter the park. We towed the 2 Jeeps and it was still only $5.
