Not really but there are couple named ones in Anza Borrego State that make some think twice.

1st up was the rocky hill of doom for stockers with some fun rocks that tend to turn away people but its actually doable near stock /w sliders as insurance, everybody in our group made it without much fan fare. Pixs from X2THAT and me. To get to the hill you have to wade through a jungle.

Last one is the Diablo dropoff, pix by Wolfman and crew. The drop-off is rutted really well and has some tuff soft sand. Descending is challenging and the way most go, although a couple of us have went up the devil with a throttle assault, sand flying, bouncing, a nice adrenaline rush.

Click here for one of the toughest hills I’ve been up in an X near stock including the drivetrain ; triple black diamond , ~ 60 degree grade monster (at the time according to the ranger) with a loose surface that’s clamed some causalities before they fixed it.

Anyway, I dig hill climbs so post up some of your good ones.

That last pic is great! It's very difficult to show how steep a hill is in a picture, nice work.

Awesome pics, man. Looks like you guys had a blast. Seeing images like those almost makes me wish my X had 4X4.

Yeah, I took that pic. Brian just grabs all the pictures everybody takes, and people assume he took them all laugh

Thanks, I really enjoyed driving through that jungle love spot and taking the pictures. Anza Borrego St. Park is really a intresting vast desert land of contrast and fun to visit if you get the chance.

Yeah we’re lucky to have some good photographers in the club, I occasionally post inline links to some of their pictures I like & think others might enjoy as I did with a couple of them including credits in the 1st post. All about sharing the scenery, good times of different views, trucks, and stuff…more I took from the same trip with the exception of the 3rd to last one from XterraDude who really has a great eye and style IMO.
