There was a little pre-Hole in the Rock wheeling on Saturday from Delta to Hall's Crossing.
Shane, Steven and I met up in Delta and ran some trails to Nucla across the Uncompahgre Plateau. This...
I had a great time until I decided it wasn't my week to run hard trails. Thanks for everyone for being a part of it. I have some photos to post later.
Bent a tie rod and still don't know what else is wrong. I have what feels like torque steer when going 40+mph and I step on the accelerator -- back end kicks hard right and front end points left. ...
FWIW, my winch would rarely be useful in the Moab desert area for lack of things to anchor to. I've used it on other trucks out there, but I'm not sure it would help me if I was alone. Around the...
Get what you are comfortable with, but carry a snatch block (pulley wheel) also. Pulleys are magic force multipliers. I think 9-10k winch and a pulley is more than plenty regardless of gearing.

Be sure to buy and print your pass for Glen canyon recreation area here. It looks like you can buy it now with a start date in the...
I'm joking. I thought the root problem here is that the scrappers know these are stolen and really just don't care. I hope the paint helps. Not much to do to deter thefts as long as there is...
Does the orange paint bring a premium price for the scrappers when your stolen cat is sold?
Space concerns are why we haven't bought a propane fire pit. Would be nice to have one but then I have another thing to store and carry plus the extra propane.
Once I get back from the Utah trip I'll be able to figure out what's going on that weekend with better clarity.
Any luck sorting this out?
Going to be hot. Hoping for cooler overnight temps =\
I didn't look at price the first time. $40k is a long ways from the "winter beater" that folks drove in the midwest when I lived out that way.
My 2005 Jeep and 2012 Subaru both are still under...
It's been one year since our trip to the Maze district. I've got a good start on my prep list for this week. Can't wait to be back on the trail!
Maybe I'll come down and camp nearby to watch the fun if I have some time.
Sounds like fun but it'll probably be 3 weeks before I can get down that way.
It seems so. We've had a few long-running threads on the topic such as this one https://www.frontrange4x4.com/forums/showthread.php?28409-Jeep-Jamboree-replacing-CB-with-GMRS-for-2021/page3

I add at least 10% to travel times on long trips like this in my Jeep. I have to get out and stretch / get a break every few hours when driving on the highway with no cruise control and a manual...
Welcome. Is this the Taco I wheeled with at Pickle Gulch and Switzerland trail last weekend?
Ok, very early start on Saturday to get there by 5pm then.
You've started down a dangerous path with only one destination -- ram power wagon.
Congrats on the truck
Do we have a target time to meet up on the 14th to find camp or on the 15th to start the day?
This won't affect us immediately, but I noticed on the link above that the Hite fuel station is closed as of 4/1/22. If anyone else happens to be travelling in that area in the near future and is...
Can we consolidate the vital information for the trip in this thread?
Permits needed? - Yes, $30, 7 day pass for Glen Canyon NRA (how/where do we get this?)
Coordinates for meetup?
GPX / other...
