On Friday 4/2 after work packed up all my tools hooked up my trailer and headed down to Jeff's "DogWalker" house. After about 15 beers or so each we had the week in Moab planed for the most part. Saturday morning I helped Jeff get his rig together. Sunday Morning I got up a 3:30 and started my 1,000 mile drive to Grand Junction CO where my cruisers are. I got there in 15 hours got some sleep. In the morning headed for Moab which is only 100 miles away from where I keep my cruisers. I got down about 10:00 am and met up with James Berry and Lee Wagoneer. We would hook up with Jeff on Wensday morning. We headed for Hellsrevenge cause its close to town and there are still some good obsticals up there. THe day went by and the cruiser was working awesome. We hit all the good stuff then headed for camp early so I could set up my tent in the light.

James in the picture above... this truck is a billy goat! it climes like you would not believe! We did a night run with Jeff up upperhelldorado which I did not take and pictures of:( I hope Jeff did? and James climed the waterfall with no winch, first one I have seen do it in person. It was awesome!

Next day we hit rusty nail and the back side of golden spike.

Hey Jeff post up the pictures you took would ya?

Not to many cruiser pics cause there was no one to take them these are all pictures I took. James strattleing the crack...

when I lived out in wyoming, my 75 year old neighbor used to tell me when we would pull the loaded cattle trailer:

"there's no replacement for displacement"

the only down fall of 300 horses, is that sometimes, something has gotta give...but the attitude of "drive it like you stole it" is just too much fun :D

Awesome pics! Wow! How did you get a group of three through Pritchett during the Safari??

I wish I had been there :(

It is good to finally see pics of Jeff's Cruiser on the trail :D

cool pics

good place for a blow out.

Yeah, 70 miles from Delta, UT, and 68 miles from Ely, NV (middle of nowhere!) Ended up convinecing the owner of a tire shop in Ely to sell me a new set of tires for the trailer! Even though he was closed and on his way to a family Easter dinner in a suite & Tie!!! Once the first blew, the other three were about to go as well, it was ugly.....and scary!!! 500 miles from home and 3 tires showing steel belts, hot as hell, and about to blow!!! It was Awn! I thank the hell out of the tire shop owner for being so good to me!

Looks like an awesome trip, Bitchin pics :D

Thanks for posting those up Nolen! Wish you would have been on our trip. Well some day maby. I am thinking hammers this fall.

Justin

Thanks Justin for letting me ride with you on upper Heldarado, and pritchett canyon....Hopefully next year I will be able to run pritchett with you (thats my goal) because I will never be ready to run upper, that stuff is insane!!! Take me with you when you do the hammers too. Talk to you soon....

What up Cam? Thanks for taking such good pictures! Your rig could handel pritchett no problem with little work. That trail is childs play but really fun and awesome views. I will finish the 77 FJ40 and you can drive it or the 60 cause I am keeping both. Both are very capable rigs. The 60 you just dont have to work about hurting.

Hey Jeff did you get any pictures from upper the night james drove the waterfall? I did not rember if anyone was taking pictures up there that night.

Cam same question for you...
