Rubicon Trail with 6 wheels

Observer
Just got back from the Rubicon Trail with my trailer. Huge success! Both the Cruiser and trailer did very well. The Cruiser had no problem pulling the trailer through the trail, only had to ride the clutch 1 or 2 times to pull it over something. The trailer tracked very nicely. Had to use the rear winch a couple times to pull the trailer off or around something in tight spots, but for the most part I just let it do it's own thing back there. Definitely a challenge in picking lines, many occasions had to sacrifice the Cruiser's line for the trailer's.

You might notice the trailer rack missing in some pictures, it couldn't take the beating with the rocks and tent weight. Ended up bolting it through the hood which worked great.

Ended up adding some "visual enhancements" to the trailer, but that was inevitable, gives it more character and story telling.

I am very happy with the way it performed, a huge sense of accomplishment. Wheeling now is more fun with the trailer than without. I will definitely do the Rubicon Trail again with the trailer.
