Moab - Spring '08
 

Spring in Moab! Easter Jeep Safari and the following week. Temps were in the 70's all week, great conditions for wheeling.

Many are still there (and some just got there last night), I just got back.

I ran Moab Rim, Kane Creek, Strike Ravine, and Steel Bender.

Bebe, Sewie, Neo, and Rox ran Golden Spike the day we did Kane Creek. A Jeeper buddy and I had our families with us until Monday and they were leaving the morning of Golden Spike.

Anyway, here are some pics of Moab Rim.

These are all on the way up, right out of the parking lot, right next to the cliff.

You guys make me jealous and Proud!!!! I am happy to see the name Hummer out there. I have had many guys here say H2's should stay at the soccer games and the mall. Many of them quickly shut up after I show them pics and Vids on here.

Thanks

Moab at Easter Jeep Safari......

The crowd was watching another Jeeper roll his rig coming up on the Z turn when we were coming down from the top.

By the way.......that was it for that guy, he turned around and went down after that. :clapping:

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

more of that same spot. Your seatbelt digs in and holds you from falling into your dash. :popcorn:

Re: Moab Spring 08

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

Where are some pictures of Hummers on Escalator??

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

There was a line of every vehicle under the sun waiting to do escalator.

HUMMER did it with the H3 and H3T. We didn't.

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

:perfect10s: One day, I'll try to come over from Belgium and participate !!!

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

Where are all the pics of the superior wheeler Tower?

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

Awesome Pics!
Man, Ive been away for awhile, need to read up on this Tower person.:popcorn:

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

Tower?

That was an interesting situation. I only saw him once for a few minutes. That dude does not possess a single clue. It would be sad, except that he's such an ass-hole, and he seems to think that is everyone else's fault. After Rox had to straighten him out, nobody paid any more attention to him (at least by the time I left).

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

My friend broke a (soft) brake line at the top of the Rim, and I had to put a safety strap on him in case his brakes completey failed coming down (he had lost a lot of fluid). We had it fixed in about an hour the next day.

Check out the looks on the faces of those in the Broncos group (watching Neo). They said it was the first time they had seen Hummers on the Rim.

Most of the rigs up there, looked something like this.

Rox's rig made that obstacle look mid sized (it's actually called the "wall")

DRTY did I mention she gave me the keys and let me drive it the day before we ran Steel Bender. ;)

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

On the "Fall" there is a large, soft drop-off to the passenger side......if you were to go down there....it would really suck. :D

My front center cap had already seen better days. A few other plastic pieces are now MIA.

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

Kane Creek is an outstanding trail....tore the hell out of my paint, but was a great trail. I didn't get too many pics because we didn't have anyone along to take them....that's why we have the broken windshield shots. :o

My Heeper buddy and I ran it alone but a couple other Heepers that were scared to death ended up following us out. The dude in the Green JK attempted to kill himself on the cliff ledges on the way out. He was open diffs and kept trying to skinny pedal his way up......not good on a soft shoulder 500 feet above a cliff. My friend hooked a strap to him and dragged his ass up. The dudes wife was shaking so bad I felt sorry for her.

Ohhhhhhh the horor.

Re: Moab Spring 08
 

Bad photo, but you get the idea of what it looks like down the canyon. There is what's left of a Jeep down there.

It gets steep, with big rocky ledges around the corner from where I took this.
