We didn't bring a pro-tractor, but all you could see was hood & blue sky. Where Eagles Soar isn't as steep as Jeep-Eater in Durango, but it's a lot longer of a ride up the incline, so there's a little more pucker factor.
The trick to going down (I didn't go back up like Dave) was to keep the brakes on as hard as possible without letting them lock-up. As soon as they lock, you skid & lose control. As soon as you let up, perfect traction and control of the truck. It's not intuitive, but it's better to hit the gas & go a little faster rather than the brakes when you start to hear the tires "bark" on the way down.
