    My first post in here, thought I'd say hey. Awesome stuff and adventures you go on. Another fine example of your photography skills right here..I see a common thread in all of these pics. Clouds, that sure is nice to have in the desert.

    head over there when you're in moab...take dewey bridge like you're heading to TOTW and at the top of one of the hills after a bit hill/turn, there's a left turn down to the river...or head down further to the second crossing then continue back to that crossing for a little loop...

    the second one you have to drive down the river 50-100 feet to the crossing exit...

    depends on if it's any deeper by the time you cross it...the snow melt will kick up and they're expecting/have been getting more rain since last weekend...

    it was around 200 cfs when we crossed it on saturday...it topped out yesterday at ~700 cfs and is now at ~600cfs...so currently is not passable

    and just know that once you get the snorkel, you're still not able to go deep without other issues...

    from this crossing, i now have a pulley to replace and had to do an emergency front diff fluid swap last night...i had a leaking seal on the driver side cv that let water in...had watered down gear oil flinging everywhere that i just noticed yesterday after work...

    but there's so many other things to worry about with water as well....but the dust and cool factor are worth it :cool:
