Where did your Jeep take You this Week?

Caught the Bug
I have been on that same trail. From Moab it’s kind of tough to find but an awesome road.
You're in NM right? I've always wanted to check out the crawling around Farmington. Hoping to make a trip out there this fall or winter. My JL build should be down early september. It's about 5hrs from me, but it looks like it would be worth the trip. Any trails you would recommend?

Any of them here in Choke cherry canyon, within Glade Run. They are all over. We moved here last year from Eagle, co.

A sand pile on the way to Little Moab-

Some old mine shafts in the mountains by Five Mile Pass.

There’s an old Jeep at the bottom of one of them. If you crawl out on the grate, you can see the tailgate. I didn’t try to get a photo. With my luck, I’d drop my phone!

I'm far from a Pro, but damn dude lay-off the skinny pedal. Between this and the turtle photos think about hiring a full-time spotter. o_O;)
Ha! There are two types of off-roaders-
-Those who have gotten stuck
-Those who are going to

Single rocks in the middle of an easy trail are the hardest for me to judge. I see them, and think “That’ll spice things up a bit!” In the clip where the fender gets knocked off, it was “This will make the video more interesting.” It did!

The rock I got high centered on, I was turning around and didn’t see it past my hood. When I got stuck, my wife looked at me and said “We need a winch.”

I had just dug out my bottle jack when a couple of guys stopped and pulled me off.

Because of my work schedule, it’s hard to coordinate with any of my buddies. It’s either go solo or stay home. Not ideal, but I’m not staying home with all the trails nearby. Little Moab is 35 miles from my house and the Wasatch Mountains just minutes away.

The upside is, my Trail Braille is improving!

Finally got the TJ out for its maiden voyage after going through pretty much everything since I bought it . Couldn’t be happier with it . was fun being back in a manual transmission Jeep with the straight 6 . Had to get up with the chickens to beat the heat the Arizona desert has a beauty of its own at first light .
