Hi all, we back it back home late Monday night after having major car trailer problems. We left Moab around 1:30 after doing a 3 hour hike in Arches on Saturday morning. We made it to Eisenhower tunnel when I hear a noise, by the time we tried to stop the wheel bearings were completly gone on the right front wheel of the trailer. Which is the axle that has the brakes on it. The brakes got so hot on WJ trying to stop they faded away. Anyway we unloaded the Classic and Sandy drove the WJ pulling the 3 wheel car trailer and I drove the XJ. We limped into Troy and Shari's " Yella Heep " who live outside of Denver. They couldn't make it to the Fall Fling this year but they were as helpful as they always are on and off the trail. I know we're not the only ones who have found there way there and made use of Troy and his weder etc. Troy found a Napa that was open on Sunday so after taking another wheel off the trailer to get bearing numbers. Troy has better eyesight than I do. and after spending the night and getting the parts in the morning we were back on the road again Sunday aftetnoon.
Just want to say thanks to all who were in Moab this year. It was nice to see some new faces and a few old ones. Nice to see a few more old ones but maybe next year.
Thanks to Alex and Wanye for leading the trails we did. Doing Prichett 2 days in a row and Behind the Rocks is probably a little crazy but with Wayne leading the way it was a blast.
Lord willing we will see you all next year.
