I got under the Jeep and spotted the bad u-joint, I picked up a new one from Napa this evening and will be replacing it tomorrow morning. I'll keep you guys posted.

Sorry about the ujoint Justin. At least it got you home. Let me know if you need any help swapping it out.
Thumbs up Wes! Upper 311 is a good trail. It has a little bit of everything. In the snow and rain it can get ugly!!

I don't know who this Justin guy is but if he's anything like me (Jason) he must be pretty cool 
Thanks for the offer Mark but I was able to fix it in our hotel parking lot using some basic tools. I'm pretty happy with the results just a little disappointed with u-joint failing in the first place. It only has 12,000 miles on it but I guess this stuff happens.
