    Posting here to discuss travel plans to Moab this year
    I.e. When, where and how for meeting up on the road, breakdowns or roadside help and depart/arrival times for people to meet up!



    For me since I can't find a trailer I will probably leave the tow rig at home and drive the two jeeps down on Tuesday or early Wednesday morning using the first part of the Kokapelli trail to Cisco and down from there exploring and possible camping along the way!
    That is our plan for now!


    Because Jeep.
    "ZJ's were designed with the intention to take 1 really good hit, and fold up. As long as the occupants walked away, it was a success. In the wheeling world, we expect our vehicles to take multiple really good hits, drive out of it, and run the obstacle again!"

    We'll probably do the usual and plan on leaving Denver between 10 and noon (more than likely noon ) on Wednesday.

    Towing the ZJ with the truck, and Bridget will be driving the Dub.

    Meet at Dinosaur parking lot at 9 or 10. Stop in Glenwood Springs for lunch. Wait there for Tyler to catch up since the wheel fell off his cursed trailer.

    I would be surprised if we're at the Dino lot by 9am, my guess is we'll catch up to you guys at Glenwood.
