Sure, if you like being at the end of a winchline... but better ask your buddy who has the winch, if he wants to pull you through it all day.
Oh come on now Trev.
I've done Fisher East in a stock JK (Rubicon). It is reasonable to do if:
#1. Anything that's on small tires (under 33") has lockers front and rear. M/T's at a minimum - no A/T's.
#2. Most rigs have a winch. Also make sure that there are enough snatch blocks and tree savers to go around.
#3. You know going in that you're going to pick up a lot of mud and some serious pinstriping.
#4. You expect a LONG day. Get an early start, and understand that it may be a late night. Last time I did Fisher East during the summer, people were still limping their Jeeps home at 2AM the following morning.
#5. All of the drivers have a combination of good skills and good judgement. Poor skills = lots of extra time winching. Poor judgement = lots of extra time winching and maybe lotsa time wrenching.
#6. It's a small group. 3-5 Jeeps.
On the other hand, fisher East is a GREAT run if you tackle it between when it freezes up and when McLean closes.
