Jeep flip 8 times off FR #7030 in West Cascades, Washington

Best Jeep roll over coverage I've seen on Youtube!
(2) end over end, (6) sideway rolls. Trail Beast crosses an icy drift, and rolls over a cliff 8 times 200'. Forest Service rd. #7030 SE of Greenwater, Washington Hwy 410. Driver and Jeep were extracted with minor injuries. July 16, 2011 Three Jeepers go looking for summer snow 4 wheeling at 5400'. This shows how dangerous the north side of a snow drift can be. Stay tuned for the aftermath video, and return to the trails.
Special Thanks to Rich Rudman and Carl Jantz for the footage and retrieval.

The jeep is fine. I'll probably be posting another movie soon.

I'm working on some pretty intense upgrades! Stay tuned.

No, Road 70 is on the south west side of Manashtash towards Green Water.

You may have a point if I were rolling towards that side! I've actually rolled that jeep 8 other times besides this one. Not so dramatic, but this was the 16th roll for this jeep.

To answer your question, I held the steering wheel & leaned back into my seat, right before I passed out. I was actually relaxed, & thought I'd be found in the bottom of the canyon.

I cracked my right wrist on the inner cage, & a head gash @ 10.5 sec.

KEEP LECTURING, IT'S NOT BAD ADVISE!

Glad you walked away and the Jeep will hit the trail again. Kudos to whoever shot the video that they held it on the Jeep till it went out of view. I have told my wife and friends... if I ever roll, the entire thing better be captured! That they wouldn't be able to help me until it stopped anyways, so might as well capture it. I would be pissed to see ground and feet just as it started to go over.

@gtgraham1970 I certainly feel fortunate! That not only did I walk away with from it, but it got caught on video! I've taken many risks over the years for the camera. Very seldom does it actually turn into good footage. This was definitely a "once in a lifetime" shot!!!

Thanks for watching! Keep Jeepin' & fight to keep the trails open.

It's been 3 months now, & I'm still having neck problems. I'm trying acupuncture for the first time. It seems to help. The jeep is almost ready for a Thanksgiving run.

Stay tuned!

@steven12395 Good advice . I was told to cross my arms and grab the harness if we ever rolled . Keeps your arms from going into dangerous places .
