Rubicon Little Sluice
Box...'Roy & Troy Show' Returns!
I described the
Rubicon Sluice Boxes in the Jeep® Owner's Bible™. In 1967, a practiced four-wheeler could scale these sections of the trail with a stone
stock Jeep CJ or an FJ40 Landcruiser—without damaging the vehicle in any way. Today, the Little Sluice Box
is a stark outcropping of large rocks and boulders, a section most often by-passed.
Last year, veteran Roy and Pirate
Troy tackled the Little Sluice when the shifting rocks were in their least favorable positions.
This year, the two came back and tackled the 'Box' again. They were followed by a veteran CJ Jeep 4x4 driver
from the WFTW volunteers. In these two videos, get a close-up sense for just how severe the 'Box' can be.
Enjoy the 'Roy & Troy Show', year two!
