Tires performed really well. Aired down to 2a0 with no issues except lost clearance. Garys rubi walked right over every obstacle.

More Woolys Pics
Note: I'm giving up on saying, "This hill is steeper in person than it appears in this picture." I've decided to take the opposite tack - you'll see what I mean. 
The hill was only about 15 feet high, and wasn't as steep as it appears. Really, it wasn't.
Terrain in the area was flat as a pancake - nothing much to it.
This is Red flexing a little on an ant hill we found (no ants were killed in the making of this pic).
It had been raining a bit, but trails weren't overly slick or nasty.
Red skirting around an obstacle. I didn't do a very good job spotting as moments later he barely missed that tree on his left by inches - I was too busy snapping pics, and admiring his driving skills.
At least I suggested he not go this way (even though that's only about a 3-4 inch drop).
So he backed up, and started around the rock, but then cut his wheels sharply and ended back on top of it again . . .
. . . so I recommended against this new line although he could have easily made it without incident (drop off isn't as bad as pic depicts).
There were a bunch of 4-wheelers, and those Mule "golf carts on steroids" thingies running around the park.
One nice feature of the park was the Welcome/Sign-in Center. Had a fireplace, big screen TV, and an air tank that they let you use to air up your tires.

They were getting in the way when I was trying to get a pic of my slightly used rock rails so I had to get rid of them.
Actually, I was tired of scratching the painted fenders so I bought some black plastic take-offs from a dealership out in Utah. This is a pic between the out with the old, in with the slightly used fenders.
And here you can see how aerodynamic the jeep becomes with the fenders removed.
