Utah Moab in May 2025

[hosejockey61]

I literally did that last trip. I ate, drank, drove 2,000 miles and it all cost me $1000. LOL. Had a great camping spot overlooking what I think was a portion of Steel Bender. Saw a few camped on the way in, but didn’t see a soul all week. Needed 33’s just to get there. It was pretty great till my tent blew down the last two days. I ended up boarding up with @NashvilleTJ for the last night.View attachment 584611View attachment 584612View attachment 584607

Looks perfect. I want to do some night photography while I'm there. As far as showers, having been in the Army for many years makes me not scared of it. But a sponge bath probably wouldn't hurt

It definitely couldn’t hurt any of us for you to sponge down. We might be scared of getting too close to you if you don’t.

Hey, what you guys do in the privacy of your own tent is nobody’s business…

I'm considering making it this year. I would like to see if anyone is going that's going to be doing easier trials? Chicken corners, fins and things, Hell's revenge, I know there's more. If my wife doesn't come, I'll probably camp at a BLM campground. I plan to stay the whole week. I'll be flat towing my jeep up there. Although I don't have a build post, I think most know I'm on a 2.5" lift with 32" tires. If not this year, most definitely next year.

Hell's and Metal Masher are on the "requested list" which I think you should be able to do just fine.

I was thinking about seeing if anyone else wanted to do Elephant Hill if there is a day where the group is doing a trail I'm not doing - it's supposed to be easy.

Maybe we should start working on a more firm trail list as the dates get closer.

I wonder if top of the world would be do able? It's been awhile since I searched, but I thought there were some bypasses.

I think so - a Tacoma followed us through it last year. I think it was stock but a TRD so rear locker if I'm remembering right. There was only 1-2 places he struggled that I remember

That was 2 years ago. Also, I don’t recall any lockers but @gasiorv could tell us for sure.

You should be fine on Top of the world.

I don't think he had lockers and not sure that his tires were even 33".

Sadly, that day was marred by a tragic burrito incident.

Yep, No lockers

Just more proof of JL inferiority

Haha, I've never seen that view and I've been up that trail multiple times

You’ve not stood on the edge looking down?

Oh god hell naw. I think I've only made it to like 15' from the edge. Heights aren't it, for me

Tragic, indeed.

Yep. Who would design a Jeep without a safe place to cook a burrito on the manifold?!

Added you as tentative.

If we toss your burritos 5’ from the edge will you go get them? 10’? I doubt we’ll do that trail, but I’d like to see this fear of heights you boast of.

Victor spotted him really well. No body damage and only had to help with a winch once. Here’s another pic coming down:

No way... I'll just grab another from App's fridge
