    It begins! If there is a Grand in the Red Stone lot, chances are good they are part of GSW. Don't be shy, say hi!

    no they were staying at canyonlands cg.
    I did talk to them and they said they were just here for the week (last week) and their trailer broke the front axle and is in the shop! so they are waiting around for it to be done.

    The view from Moab Rim is amazing! Incredible trail once you get past the first mile. Very tippy at the beginning.

    It was awesome meeting everyone, new screen names as well as the old timers from way back when. I wish I could have ran at least one trail with you guys, but a broken down trailer makes for a huge headache and a nice bill, so my friend and I just wanted to get it handled. Can't wait to see more pictures, and I hope everybody made it home safely!

    Edit: I did have some bad luck with the trailer, but we had to stop in Vegas to pick up a spare tire since we destroyed the other one. As a result, I ended up finding a used set of 35" MTRs with 60% tread left on it for 300 bucks at Discount Tire. I guess the Jeep gods cut me some slack!
