One time in the Snow on Slick Rock is all it takes to tell you its not a good idea. In normal conditions Hells Revenge is a super easy trail. Had a trip through with Nissan engineers once that was fun, watching them purposely give a beat down on a test rig.

Hello,
I'm surprised to see you guys in Moab in the snow.
Did you guys do ALL of Hells Revenge? Even the hard parts such as Hells Gate, Mickey's Hot Tub, the Escalator and Tip Over? These all have bypasses from what I'm reading and I'm wondering if you guys bypassed or did them?
I know they can be done by Raptors as seen in this video by professional drivers released by Ford. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjMBlxq99dY

Any other of the difficult trails you guys hit?
I found a great book on all the trails of Moab. A Guide to Moab here on Amazon.
Robot Check I can't wait to get my 2017 Raptor and head to Moab to break it in :)

Yes which also has me very curious how much better does a SCAB do off road then say the new 2017 super crew? I was planning on getting the super crew.

I'm also wondering if you guys did Elephant Hill and particularly were you able to fit the Raptors in The Devils Pocket aka "The Squeeze"?
I found a video of what appears to be a Raptor getting damaged here, and some other videos of a big full size Ram 1500 truck that makes it through.

Raptor Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNPJjVGdssI

Specs for a 2015 Ram is 79.4" Wide.
Raptor is 86.3" appears to me the Raptor will would not make it. To bad the guys who made that Raptor video cut before we could see what damage was done.
