Rocketman, did you go to gray rock this weekend? I'm pretty sure I passed you

 

I was there Saturday. It's changed alot since I rode it last. The mining is slowly killing everything but the most hardore trails. Did you go to the "Canyon". The mud on the trail was the slickest that I've ssen there. I would hate to have climbed those hilly roads if it had rained. I had a good time but I can't take mud that takes $20 to find your Jeep again. I put some major scrapes down both sides trying to climb one of the really steep hills. Figured out later that I had it in 4hi. I knew that I should have made it. Grayrock has turned into a club that you need a V8, 2-1/2 ton axles and 44" to really have fun. Of course that being said, I'll be back in March for the next ride.

 

Yeah, that was definately you I saw now that I see your picture again. I noticed the same thing about the trails though the ruts are getting worse everytime. I went through the canyon at the Fall For All back in October but not this time, I'd imagine it was pretty slippery though. It was a mess even getting up that main hill that leads to bowl hole, 160 loop, the canyon etc I was sliding everywhere. But like you said, I too will be back in March haha. I'm trying to figure out where the trails jk-junkie was talking about a couple pages back in Markeeta, Al. Sounds like a pretty cool place

 

This is what they look like...that's where I went this weekend.

It would be easier to show you than to explain it....there's not too many points of reference!

 

i recently put a lift on my jeep so it has changed a bit..

here is the before



here is the after in that glorious snow that happened a few days ago.

 

I'm pretty sure I saw your Jeep this summer I believe in August in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach. I cant remember the name of the condo, but I believe we stayed in the same condo. I definately looked at your Jeep and noticed the South sticker from this forum on your JK, and thats how I found this forum. Thank you by the way. Mine was the 2door Red Rock Wrangler X.

 

Yes we stayed at the Phoenix 5. I like Orange Beach, good weather, good food, and I like to cycle. I carried both of my bikes and road everyday. I remember your Jeep parked in the lot with the top off.

 

Thats was it the Phoenix IV! sorry I was a little under the influence on that trip lol. But yeah that was me, I left the top and doors off for pretty much the whole week... And it had to rain on me too! the interior got soaked, but its a Jeep so it all good, but that beach trip was fun... Who would have guessed girls love Jeeps, at least thats what me and my cousin found out??? lol
