How to bend your frame. (large format images)
Driving Long Canyon, near Moab, Utah. It's a 4WD road that drops 2,000 feet off a mesa near Dead Horse Point, arriving at Utah S.R. 279 next to the Colorado River. I passed a couple people on motorbikes coming up who seemed fairly impressed at my willingness to push the poor little wagon.

Nice pictures. Was it bent by the end, or did it survive?

I heard it creaking pretty bad but it's tough to say if it warped. My alignment is off and the front doors were already a bit off.

Did I literally push it? No. But did I push the limits of what I felt it was capable of? Certainly. I was pretty concerned it would high-center on some of the big rocks, but it did great. I put together this little video too:

Nice video!
I think we need to take that second pic above, flip it and then add it to the rotating pictures
