“During Easter Jeep Safari 2022, I went in my 1948 Willys CJ2A, Grampa’s Jeep up on the Moab Rim trail where we had a little accident.”
Rollover and recovery by Stan Fuller, 5 minute video

The video starts on Hell’s Revenge, with Stan climbing Escalator like the Willys was made for it.  From there it was Moab Rim, where the first obstacle was The Devil’s Crack. “Took me a couple tries.”

Stan says he was “driving up to go watch the other guys climb The Crack when I miscalculated on that little step. Next thing I know I was rolled over… Everything was OK, no problems, a little bump on the head. All the safety equipment worked as designed.”

RECOVERY AND ASSESSMENT
They got Grampa’s Willys up on its side and re-rigged the winch lines. The windshield was broken, hood and grill supports bent. Once they got to a flat surface, Stan let his friends check it out more thoroughly. They “got it up and running and drove it down the hill.”

 

THE FOLLOWING MORNING
“This is my kind of body work.” [[[Watch Stan drive over the hood to straighten it out!]]]  Once they had everything bolted back together, they climbed Gatekeeper to continue their adventure.

A FEW VIEWER COMMENTS
“Jeeping at its purest”
“I think it’s amazing that people spend $100,000 on a pretty jeep to rock climb and you guys are doing it in those old jeeps. Hats off to you guys.”
“Thank goodness for roll bars, and good friends.”
“Nothing like knowing how to trail fix and get back on the trail. Old guys rule!”
