Moab Opps 2

I am up in Moab leading a group down from the Golden Crack trail. Its getting late and I know from experience that we have a lot of driving left that we need to get done before the sun sets on us. I have come down this same trail at night and it at least doubles the time it take to get back to the main road.

I have got a little be further ahead and have lost sight of them in the rear view mirror. About that time I come to a short ledge about 30” high. As I am going down the ledge I stop since my Jeep is pointed slightly to the left I think I can lean out and see them coming. I don’t see them so I move forward some while turning a bit more to the left. I have gone down about as far as I think I go with out dropping below the view line. Thinking I can just lean out a bit further I do so, then a bit more and its then I feel the Jeep begin to ever so slowly move. I sit back up and everything is ok, so I lean back out, again it starts to move, very slowly. But now sitting back up doesn’t stop it. It moves slower than my hand on Suzy Creamcheeses leg on our first date and ever so gently lays itself down on the trail, in the middle of the ledge, my exact plans for little Suzy.

I slide out from under it between the ledge and the windshield and wait for the rest of the group. Neither myself or my Jeep is hurt with the exception of powder coat rubbed off my rocker guard. They arrive and lend a hand in righting the Jeep. We all laugh and continue on just barely getting to the main road before the sun sits on us.

They are amazed that the entire weight of the Jeep can rest on the rocker guard and not crush it. My thanks to Scott at Diamond Off Road for building one hellva set of rocker guards... http://www.diamondoffroad.com/home

Heather, you ask odd questions.

I'll tell you what lame ass is - its your ass with my # 12 boot stuck up it.

I've went out with Mary Jane Rottencrotch before she dated you and I know Suzy could whip her lame ass. Maybe after going out with your lame ass she developed a 'ttiude!

So am I. I've never heard of that before. Could you use a hi-lift to lift your jeep by the rockers? That'd be a sweet picture.

That's exactly what I thought, other than the Hardcore part. Fawking pansy, the body's just another pivot point.
