    How High have you been?

    Get a load of this J 10. ARTIC CIRCLE and beyond. Guy says he even had it on top of Mt. Evans in CO. That is the highest road in the USA 14,2and sumpin ft. Sorry for the brain fart there.
    To top it all off this guy lives across the Ohio River from me and has never said Hi or offered to let me come along on a journey.
    I need to find the one from way down south, I'll find it tonight if I get the chance.
    Here it is, enjoy...

        That's pretty cool! One of these days I'd love to make an Alcan and Dalton Hwy run. I have friends on the North Slope that drive nothing but FSJ's.

        I've taken my '78 W/T to the top of 13,198FT 'Peak 9' in Breckenridge, Colorado. The farthest north I've traveled would be Maine, Quebec or Nova Scotia.

                    Rocky Mountain HIGH, Colorado.
                    when in doubt, go higher.
                    (or get higher, somehow, whatever it takes)

                      Last weekend was up to about 10000 feet before the GW started running poorly. Farthest north I've been is south Denver. Some day Prudhoe Bay and some day sooner Mt. Baldy and Mt. Herman (both 13000 feet and only 30 or so miles from me).

                            Well I've never had my J-10 farther north than Ocala, FL (not sure if it was before I ownded it).

                            But I do have a 4' high dirt mound on my property. So I've had my J-10 at a whopping 4' above sea level
