It was an "alternate line" on an easy trail, Falls Dam. It was a good friend driving, goes by Smiley. There was a mud hole around a turn and drop in into it on the top side. Went into the drop in on an angle with the left front leading and when the 37 dropped and dissapeared into the mud hole the truck went over! The trucks weight was supported by a slider and the A-pillar. Killed the engine winched it over then back. Fired right back up!

Not too much damage just pinched in the A-pillar enough to break the windshield. Door surpisingly still opens and closes! Not a snug fit but operational. Most importantly. No one was hurt.

ouch! Well at lest no one was hurt and it didnt cause too much damage.
Falls dam is rated as an easy trail but there are parts you can make really hard.
I have travelled it many times.
