I haven't done it myself, however looking at videos and reviews it is the type of thing I would attempt in a Badlands.

However, when going to a new trail, especially if you're the only vehicle, know your limits and turn around when you get anywhere near them. Once you get towards the middle rankings of trails there can be sections that you need a spotter for, to get past them safely. Typically when trails are rated on a ranking of 1 to 10 something like a Badlands can sometimes do up to a 5.

However there's a lot of variables in there because it depends on why it's ranked at its level.

Yesterday, I went down to the Cerro Gordo trail in California because I read reviews where people in stock vehicles were getting through it. I got a couple miles in and turned around because I got to a section that while I could get through I would need a spotter and a recovery vehicle in case I got stuck.

Just be safe out there.

You know, I didn’t even think of looking at videos, that’s a great idea. Looking at the videos, it does look like something the badlands should be able to do, but I agree on the spotter and recovery vehicle. Given that I am going alone with the family I will probably take a pass.

Maybe someone will eventually take a video of a badlands taking it on.

Thanks.

Almost a year late, but yes, I have done it in my BS Badlands. When I did it, it was completely stock with the optional at3w tires. The shelves at the end were challenging, but steady tire placement and full use of all electronic goodies and you will make it fine.
