For those of you "Pinzers" in Death Valley areas, have you tried this trail? Interestiing for those shown. Of course pictures rarely if ever really show the severity of the course, but interesting nonetheless.
Enjoy something different

Cool video. Early on, they mention Mengal Pass. I've been over that, no challenge whatsoever in a Pinz. A few years back I went on an overniter to the Barker Ranch (C Manson's old digs) with a couple guys from work, one of them drove a stock Honda Passport. He did ok with some judicious spotting in a few areas. Saw Rainbow Butte, Golar Wash and came out through Furnace Creek. Very fun trip.

Here is a link to another trail in Death Valley. My fried hiked it and saw that all the rocks were covered in skid marks he didn’t realize that jeeps could make it this far. Doesn’t look all that fun unless you like to use your winch. Even then i think a jeep with its solid axles has an advantage over a pinz in conditions like this.
