MoabCO Trip 2006
Thursday, May 4, 2006

On Thursday morning we met up early and headed for Pritchett Canyon. I had been looking forward to checking out this trail for quite a while, so I was pretty excited about it. We had a pretty large group, so it took up most of the day to get through the trail and back to Moab. Plus we ran into a few groups ahead of us that slowed us down some more. The trail was as fun as I had hoped, and I didn’t even need to winch once with my 33’s. Here’s a few photos from the day.

MoabCO Trip 2006
Wednesday, May 3, 2006

On Wednesday we were originally supposed to run the Golden Spike trail, but since the trail leader’s wife hit a deer on the way down to Moab the night before we got a much later start to the day. Instead, we went and played around in Area BFE for a while. Our original goal was to run Green Day, but since none of us had really been there before we had a hard time finding it. We ended up running some of Green Day and then I played around on the entrance to Upper Helldorado for a little bit.

MoabCO Trip 2006
Monday, May 1, 2006

After spending the weekend in Grand Junction running some of the toughest trails around I continued on to Moab and arrived Sunday evening. I was meeting some friends here later in the day, but would have the morning and part of the afternoon to myself so I started out by exploring the Steel Bender trail on my own.

NAXJA’s 20th Anniversary Celebration

NAXJA’s 20th Anniversary Celebration

NAXJA’s Fall Fling 2003
Friday – Sunday, October 3-12, 2003

A few months back I made the decision to drive out to Moab, Utah for a week to attend NAXJA’s 20th Anniversary Celebration of the Jeep Cherokee. I have seen many photos of the trails and beautiful scenery and just knew I needed to experience it for myself. I ended up leaving home on Friday night at around 6:00pm so that I could meet up with my friend in Rochelle, Illinois at about 7:00pm. Once we met up we continued driving west until we got near Des Moines, Iowa where we stopped to get some sleep at a rest area.
