I went out on a little Desert Adventure tonight and came across several examples of why you should Never Trust Sandstone to carry any weight. I see this all the time when I’m out but never really talked about it. It seems of course like common sense, that’s probably why I’m a habitual offender of getting to close to the edge of Sandstone Cliffs and any undercut cliffs. I like to stand/drive close to the edge. I know, I know…it directly correlates with the inability to fix my Manny-bun correctly :pepper::anitoof:648E11F5-DA3A-486B-ACC8-38AA69E7BE5A.jpeg9C22F115-5D3B-4380-87ED-90AD30B01AD4.jpeg06A0AB5D-FB8B-4882-B92D-B81813F9295C.jpegA79CD8FC-E860-4C43-A56F-AB99742C4F35.jpegCECBFE79-A116-43E7-B965-8D48C9491755.jpeg

I’m no tree-hugging ******, but I still like to leave places the same or better than when I arrived. I’m sure your experience won’t result in any road or trail closings but things like this can lead to that. Most importantly, I’m glad you and your vehicle didn’t go the direction of the boulders. Let the hate responses begin…
