Sorry, mate. The Rubicon trail is a top class run in the Sierra Nevada
mountains of California. It is considered by some to be the toughest 4x4
trail in the US. Since a lot of the 4x4 industry, including most of the
magazines, are located in California it tends to get a lot of attention.
Many equipment manufacturers advertise their gear as "Rubicon-ready" or some
such slogan.

The Rubicon is a mountain trail and the challanges are mostly of the
rock-climbing, extreme articulation variety. Those who prefer to run in
deep mud with 44" tires are not impressed.

Hope this helps,
chuck
