Looks like if you've got a stout SUV without a trailer, its fine. Some guys just did it in their newer 4Runner (a Gen 5). Looks like they had a bit of lift and like, 32s/33s. Main "damage" was getting the side of their vehicle scratched to crap.

So yeah, I think any stock/lightly built JK that isn't loaded down with 5 tons of crap will do just fine.

So, are there good overnighting spots scattered throughout? I might be able to take my older son to this over Labor Day Weekend.
