One of the most challenging obstacles on the Fordyce Creek Jeep Trail is fording the creek itself. With the exception of about a week in August when PG&E restricts the water flow for the annual Sierra Trek Event, the water level is often very high and moving fast enough to make the required crossings impassible. When we decided to do this run, it was the middle of September and based on all the reports we saw, the water flow low. Of course, while the water level was in fact low and fordable, it doesn’t mean that you wouldn’t still take on water, LOTS OF WATER. In this Raw & Uncut video clip, you will see just how deep this first of 3 water crossings is as Jeff makes his way across in his 4� lifted Jeep JK Rubicon Unlimited sitting on a 4� Off Road Evolution long arm lift and running 35� Nitto Mud Grapplers.
Thats an easy way to clean off the floorboards!
