I let Pam give it a shot this time. Still no luck. The fronts got up a lot easier with the 35's, but I think a front locker is the magic trick to make it up.

Looks like a great trip and the weather looked perfect.

Vintage....the "CJ" was on her maiden voyage and we (my wife and I) were very happy to have had a great group of people with us, and great spotters to guide this little Flex monster through some tough spots. All in All, amazing trip and very sad to be back at work!

On a side note...Nothing, I mean nothing besides a high pressure steering hose went wrong......Very happy!

So that's why Pam's FFB team was so messed up!

No idea. The trail to the Arch was open from Salt Valley Road, but the portion of the trail that goes back to Balanced Rock was closed.

Yes, that would be correct. I was too damn tired to give a #$@% after the day on Spike.

*sigh*

I should have won that match up

very nice, I gotta get back out there! I think I've got about the same "mad flex" as the CJ does. Must be vintage style??

Great pix... must be cool to get thru the trail before sunset... or, heck, before midnight... must be the perfect time to go out there eh?

I've gotten off Spike after 11PM (starting at 7AM) before, so I know ALL about finding your way out of there in the dark! It was a pretty cool sunset too.

Yes, "Vintage" was the Jeeps name all weekend......Givin the old folk props! LOL. It was awsome but I really have to wrench on it to figure out how to get more articulation. I think I would have been less tense had it not have been a solid brick.

Oh and Dave gave my Truck a Name too.......Not cool:flipoff2:

hehe - I think the names Dave came up with your vehicles was pretty amusing :)

I had a good time (thanks for putting this together, Dave & Pam), but will have to take the TJ on Spike next time I'm out there..hopefully, it has some new modifications SOON!
