Awww man.. all the fun stuff is directly North of the lookout point, leading to Bouquet..

and then the "big" climb back up from Bouquet :

I hope everyone had a blast, and made it home safe. I hope to put another one of these together within the next few months.

Your Jeep looks so cool now, Mark! I’m glad you guys had a good trip. I can’t wait until I have full traction again and able to wheel; this no-Jeep-havin’ business is giving me the itch.

I can relate! My rig's been effed up since SoCal Fest. So much needs fixing I hardly know where to start.

My wife and I had a wonderful time, thanks to everyone's help and instruction.

Sidewaysstarion got us aired-down at the beginning of the run, and he, Faultyline, and Lurch got us aired-up again at the end. Faultyliine's Cherokee was also stock, so we followed him to avoid taking on obstacles that would be too big for our stock XJ -- an especially important point because we have no skidplates or other armor anywhere at all.

Like us, Faultyline is a ham and we used our 2-meter rigs to maintain communications. It was really comforting to hear his instructions of what to watch out for and how to take on some of the more "interesting" parts of the trail. My wife, being navigator and communications specialist, really appreciated his concise and friendly pointers.

We got to enjoy the company of many fine people and learn of new places to go and things to do.

Many thanks to Sidewaysstarion, Faultyline, SleeperXJ, Lurch, and the others whose "handles" I neglected to learn.

Time to brush the dust off my rig I guess.

We had a great time. I took my wife's cousin with me, now he wants to get a Cherokee.

Well, FaultyLine and I stayed on at least three -- most of the time we were on four.
