    an unforgetable night at sacajawea hotsprings

    Wow! I cannot even imagine how I would have handled that situation. I know the trip would have ended right there though. What a miracle that those guys happened to be there. Is she 100% recovered now?

    General Grabber AT2?

    Had them on my KJ. They were terrible in mud. Turned to slicks instantly. I was expecting that though with the tight tread pattern. What I wasn't expecting was how much the Colorado rocks would take out of them. Lots of tread rubber chunks gone. Sent from my Nokia Lumia using Tapatalk

    No they do not. They have coilovers instead of torsion bars. Sent from my Lumia using Board Express

    I don't know, it was pretty rough. This happened on that trail. That's the upper control arm 200 feet from the end of the trail (thank goodness I was carrying a spare). Coming back down was really rough. Some of those ledges seemed huge.

    Thinking about building my KJ

    I started out with the RC lift. It's design adds a spacer between the strut and the clevis fork. The problem is that it will kill the struts in short order. I now run a Frankenlift in the front with 2" poly spacers in the rear with the RC springs. I will be replacing the rear setup with OME...

    That sounds like it. We parked in the Wilhite trail parking area and the canyon was just across the road. A map of the White Rim with the hiking trails marked can be found at http://www.nps.gov/cany/planyourvisit/upload/island.pdf.

    Random Moon Shots

    My contribution. Not nearly as nice as some of the others posted, but it looked cool when we were there and the photo didn't turn out too bad.

    Thanks. The cars were just outside the National Park boundary. There may have been a Hummer, but from what we saw, the cars appeared to be from before 1960.

    Colorado Passes and Utah Canyons - 2009

    Our final day in Moab was supposed to be a run up and back on the Top of the World trail and then heading to Monument Valley. We started early and broke camp, loaded up and headed to the Dewey bridge remains. It is a real shame that the bridge was burned. After stopping for some photos at the...

    The following day, day 10 of the trip, we spent the entire day in Arches National Park. This is truly an amazingly scenic park. I would love to go back when there isn't so much haze in the air and get some photos at sunset. Below are a few highlight photos. Morning at the KOA Various Arches...

    Colorado Passes and Utah Canyons - 2009

    I did see one of those little things in Moab. It drove by us while we were eating at Zak's Pizza and we saw it again a while later. I recall it having a sticker or something about being 2 cycle. We actually had to stop and admire it for a while.
