The Grand Mesa Jeep Club held a meeting for the upcoming Offroad Show in June and a few of us decided to go squeeze in a quick run after the meeting. Jeepdiva & MonsterZ just got back from a week at the Hammers, so they were out, Giterdone had some chores on the farm to attent to, Badbuggy was having brake problems so he just walked, and WardenBF had a whole list if minor issues trying to load the rig up so he too just walked, but Bowtied was up for wheeling especially after picking up a new set of 42" MT/R's :hail: On to the pics, which Carrie took

Look the sticker is still on the tire

Then we came across two CJ's one with a cummins 4bt stuck in a bad situation, needing a tug.

I made an efforto to go around him and help him out.

Was not looking like the right line here

So i backed up and tried to go a little more driver to keep the passanger from climbing so high and bounde up the pass front to the point it made a very loud BOOM noise out of the front end...you know this is not a good sight

Fortunately it was a tera flex hub i installed for EJS that did not like the abuse :tisk: 15 minutes later a drive flange was installed, i got around the CJ and helped him out of a bad spot.

I was then able to get in position and have him winch of my bumper and get him out

They turned around, and we continued on

And on to the last waterfall where some one winched down a boulder the size of my hood to literally PAVE the right hand line :rant: A work day is scheduled soon to remove that CDOT roadway

Want to wheel... need to wheel...

Wally - your jeep is almost too pretty for those trails.
