A couple more of the gang coming down Moab Rim. My favorite trail of the weekend by far. Cliffhanger on the other hand, that ***** and I have a score to settle.

I managed to get stopped going up devil's crack AND Z-turn (on the easy line). You can take almost any line on the crack in a locked rig and make it up except the one I found 
They were quick and easy fixes, but it still bummed me out a little inside
Other than those minor issues, what a great run!
I'll get some vids made as soon as I can, but I am working a ton this week...

Agreed, thanks to everyone for an awesome weekend, we could'nt have asked for a better group. By far the best wheeling trip I've been on in the two short years since getting back into it. I see some pretty serious mods in my future, I need to (after fixing the stuff I jacked up) get the XJ up off the ground a little more and get a little more tire under her.

Moab was an awesome trip. It was great to get out with you guys and get my jeep into places it should not have been. I'm pretty sure that open diffs and 31's won't be here by the spring. This trip gave me wheelin fever again. Time to go start building some axles. The wife gave the OK as a winter project

Found a little more time this afternoon to wade through the 300+ pics I got, thought I'd post up a few of the better (I think) ones.

Yeah, the IFS did'nt seem to be the least bit efficient there, I cant talk smack though, he did make it up it. I do agree with Ryan though, a bit painful watching the struggle that a straight axle would cure.
