Shafer Trail. I was going to do the trail alone until I met up with a bunch of people in different groups about to do the trail. This is where everybody was airing down. Well, except for me. I did not air down. So, keeping my fingers crossed as I head down the switchbacks.
Swithbacks ahead of us
Heading down. 2 Jeeps infront of me. Then I met this solo traveler too. A man in a Nissan Frontier. A really older model. Not lifted or anything. Does not have enough clearance that I have. His Nissan Frontier is standard with NO 4x4. I asked him if he was ok going down this road with no 4x4, he said please! This is an easy trail. That there is nothing to this trail. He said but he has 2 spare tires and tire patching kits, just in case. I could not believe my eyes. So, I asked him if I could put my gopro on his windshield. He said sure, as long as if it falls I will not get mad at him. I told him, if it falls, let him just keep on driving and forget about it. He said cool. So I put it on his wind shield and we were off!
The guy in the Nissan Frontier with less clearance, no 4x4 and driving a standard down Shafer trail switchbacks. He said he is on his way to do a lot of the white rim road.
