I'm out camping this weekend and maybe next weekend to. Might try to run something over the holiday weekend up north if I can talk the wife into it.

Looks like my JK is staying parked in my driveway for a couple of days, a hose cracked and leaked alot of coolant, luckily it happened as I pulled up to my house. Not very happy right now, hopefully it didn't damage anything else

Its really heavy and hard to title but I'm taking her up camping for a week long trip next Wednesday. I'm not as worried about the towing as I am about the whoa'ing.

Anyone got a wheeling trip planned this weekend?

Also, how is the Arizona Strip? I hear it's very remote. I keep reading about Toroweap. Worth the drive?

I am waiting to hear if they have opened the Sycamour areas. If so I would like to play around there. Otherwise, Upper Woodpecker would be my next choice.

Im leaving for Durango on Sunday. We plan on being there a week. Anybody done any of the trails there? We're thinking of doing Black Bear Pass and Engineers Pass.

Bob, I am very familiar with the area you can call me if you would like and i can give you lots of info 623-326-2778. All of the trails up there are beautiful but my two favorites are Imogene pass and Black Bear pass. Its about a 1.5 hour drive from Durango to most of the trails, it will take you about an hour and a half to get to Silverton and another 45 minuites to get to the trail heads which are between Silverton and Ouray. I have run Black bear by my self in about 2 hours before and then taken Imogene back to the other side from Teluride It took me about 6 hours to go over both passes with minimal sight seeing and minimal traffic on a weekday. Here are some pics from our trip there a couple of summers ago.
