Recipe for Success
Hollister's Five Finger Hillclimb is a long, steep, and dry hill made even better through 'dozer work. A series of small hills built onto the already impressive slope calls for a good breakover angle, which is achieved with short or tall (or both) vehicles. Jeep CJs of the 5, 6, 7, and 8 variety have done well, as have Willys products. Except for the 5 and the 6 (which were 6x6s), none were particularly short on wheelbase, but the F-350 that won the Hillclimb last year was definitely tall enough.
