Ill be hauling ass to do the trip in Two days but that isn't a problem. also depending on weather down there that makes some of the trails iffy to wheel.
This makes sense, and really, when you have 2 days there and 2 days back, looking at having to use a full week of vacation anyhow, so difference between 3 /4/5 days of actual wheeling is really just eating in to a second weekend, and not necessarily more time off. My wife's initial response was "Ugh. Do I ever get to vacation with you?? It's always jeep stuff" Anyhow, are you open at all to maybe earlier in the summer rather than the tail end? Possibly Last week of June? Are there summertime events out that way that should be avoided if you don't want that sort of hassle? I'd possibly like to bring son or daughter, but schedules get more iffy as school closes in at the end of summer. Marching band/sports and stuff which all starts 4-6 weeks before school. I'll send you a PM with some info about me, and maybe things will work out for us both!

Just on our own. It just is a coincidence of the time. We will be driving out. We were planning on like 5 days in Moab and then going south into Ouray/Telluride/Silverton and wandering the passes for 3 days or so. Then bedding back.

There ya go! I don’t like wheeling with my top or half doors...so I guess we’ll have to see if I can handle the sweltering heat!
