Makes me want to go back to Moab!
 Last trip I rented a new Wrangler with 12 miles on it & did a 10 hour loop around the White rim trail.
Nothing like your more advanced adventures on the trail, but great fun anyway...
  Someday I shall trailer Rat Patrol down & see what it will do.

Send me a note. I’ll see if I can get there and trail along.

I want to go back too!   There may be guys out there who are as fun to wheel with as Stan and Steve, but none are better!  (IMHO)

Poison Spider was the most difficult trail I've driven myself.  I would do it again in my MB but that's about the limit for a stock jeep for me.  It was harder for me to go back down that trail than it was to drive up.

I liked how Brian set up his rig.  I hope to build up my cj-3a this winter for future Moab visits.

I didn't notice!  Salem is only a few hours away.

Dasvis -- I sense a road trip in our future!
