Just a couple of clips. Will try to get more up later. Takes forever to upload them to Photobucket. Probably not dial up friendly. Jim at the STEPDJ at the STEP

great videos Jim. Picking the right line makes the step look easy. Maybe next time, I'll get to play.

The right line and his longer wheel base more his wheel base on that one made it real easy. Great vids Jim

cool vids! Was the camera hardmounted to the dash during the run through the water? I mount it to the dash and let it run sometimes. Doesn't do great but gets some good shots.

Aaah, ok. Reminds me of some of the videos I've seen from riders wearing a helmet cam. Good stuff. Gives a good impression of what it was like.

Great vids Jim, thx for posting. Good to see you and your rig going up over The Step. Don't think you could have done that before your recent upgrades. Bill

Here is Jason trying the step. He would have made it if his transmission wasn't slipping on him! Jason at the STEP

The Toyota made a valient effort and I think if the rear bumper didn't drag it would have made it. James helped out!! Winching the Toyota

Cool vids Jim, found out the tranny fluid was below the Minimum mark and filled it back up. Went out tested it on a few things at Chimney and at 3 feathers and seemed to have fixed the problem. Now just got to make it back out to the gap with a full thing of tranny fluid Hope you get your thing fixed.

wow looks totally different from last time i was there, before the water had washed up so much sand at the bottom of the step, it wasnt really a step anymore, just a few big rocks that felt like a really big speed bump! crazy how the weather changes the trails so fast. btw, sweeeeeet vidz

2 Vids of me trying the step. Not a bad effort I must say. You guys were 'nice' enough to post the part where I get winched up so maybe this will make me look a little better. This is about 7 minutes of video, so I hope you have patience. It took me a while to get only 3 feet up the face.
