I am gassed up and ready to rock, will try and be rolling by 8 which should put me there by noon. Maybe we can go do Fins and Things during the afternoon and see who shows up by the time we all get back. Cookout at the RV park perhaps?

Well I'm sitting at Smittys eating my french toast and sausage. We did the top of Gemini Bridges and Long Canyon yesterday afternoon (Long Canyon..isn't long. Guess we're meeting over at the gas station at City Market at 8, look for the bluish/purple Cherokee with the blue/black/white hood and a big grey 73 Wag.

Though i might have been a week behind you guys thought i would let you know what we ran and how much fun we had. That area is really a tribute to a well managed and run trail system.
Thursday got there. high noon
Ran:
Hells revenge. the suzuki flipped over in the hot tub. fun first day.
Friday 8:30 am
Ran Prichett canyon from the bottom up. no problems had to use the winch on the other CJ7 in our group once at axle hill. all other obsticles no problems no need for the cables. loved chewy hill and yellow rock. axle hill though i took the right line and teetered my way through the V groove, the other cj7 didnt have rocker gaurds and didnt want to risk slipping off and crushing his rockers. Then we ran behind the rocks backwards so up white knuckle hill, definately recommend running it backwards especially after running prichart since its a left turn a mile or so fromt he top of pricahrt canyon. back to base camp at 6pm
Saturday. late start.  took more than one bloody marry to get us going.
Ran up to area BFE. checked out helldorado. opted to run the creek drainages north out of there. we ripped the 4 link mount off the frame of the suzuki. towed her out. went back to the base of opperations. Loaded up put hte hard top on due to the in coming rain, scooted over to Potato Salad hill, both CJ's made that on the first pass, i was supprized it is hard but went really smooth. both CJ7's made her on the first pass only had to readjust a little right at the top. Proceeded to run Fins and things & again we ran Helldorado.
Sunday Morning:
Hit the road for CA at 7:30 am Utah time got to my house at 11 pm CA time
What a trip well worth it. I'll be back in two years

Did you get the lights worked out?
Snowboarder-Nothing too h-core this year, set the date at the bottom on the Moab forum back like 45 days or so and you should be able to see the pix.
