If I can make this trip happen then yes hopefully locked front / rear with belly up. Got to have a trailer to get me out there. I spent 2 years in construction driving and co-driving my brothers 2500 with a 20 ft trailer so I can co-drive out there.

Mike let me know about the trailer situation. Ill see if I can get off from work and the wife.

That's good and something i'm sure you want anyway after having owned a Rubi. 

You'll enjoy the trip a lot more, and require a strap a lot less if you're locked F&R for these trails.  There are places you don't want to be spinning and bouncing around.  Some of the obstacles have bypasses, and some very long bypasses, except Pritchett's where there are sometime choices, but no bypasses, and then there's Cliffhanger, and it's only 300' down where you need lockers.   ;D

Calvin, Ben, does 300' sound right?



I seem to remember it being about 300 but feeling a lot longer haha. But Doug is right, locked front and rear out there you'll be AMAZED at what your jeep just walks up. *Note: Walks is a relative term while on trails like Pritchett's.

Doug,
Chuck called me tonight and told me that Charlene and I were going on this trip. We decided to put Charlene on a plane and I will haul her Jeep out there. Monday I will be turning in the time off paper work to the boss man. Getting the time off should not be an issue.

That's awesome.  I told Chuck what you told me, but he made it happen!  Great! 

We are working on a 2nd condo for you guys.
