Last year, we went on an all day off road tour, out of Silverton, Colorado. The vehicle we went in was a Pinzgauer.....which sure looked like that. We didn't go up anything like that, but it did go through some pretty rough stuff.

Had several Jeeps doing obstacles similar to that at our most recent Jamboree. At the bottom of the wall, you can see a bit of a natural ramp, which helps the vehicle maintain traction as it gets up and over.

Breakover angle didn't seem to come into play there though. but that rig sure has one heck of a breakover with everything up high in the frame rails (from what I can see).
