    Photo dump from leaving AZ, also some pictures from before that were on my phone. After leaving the phoenix area we went to Sendona for the afternoon and made it to Moab for the night. Saturday morning we drove through the arches NP and did our best on The top of the world trail.

    As always none of the pictures are in order, edited and don't mind the crooked lightbar (it didn't quite fit after the winch so its not actually secured)

    So at sedona I was disappointed because the top loop was closed figuring because of the snow, I think thats where the best views are since you can see the submarine rock from above. Well after driving to the end and coming back they opened the top part of the loop, which meant I was the first one going down the stair case on snow covered rocks.... We surived, to be fair last time it was raining so I've never actually ran it in the dry

    So I made it nearly to the top of the world but this hill 0.3 miles from the top kept me from getting up. As you can see I was the only person going up the trail since it snowed, which made it very interesting. Last time I did this trail it was in the middle of the night, by myself and on smaller tires without any recovery gear besides traction ramps. And this time coming back with 35s, all the recovery gear I would ever need, aired down (no compressor before), more armor and I couldn't make it so that should tell you how difficult it was. I could have made it up the next couple of obstacles with winching but was a little worried coming down this hill since I probably wouldn't be able to stop.

    So when I got to Joshua Tree I ended up going out to run a trail even though it was dark but it started raining and I wasn't sure if they had flash floods in this area not being familiar I turned around for flat ground and slept for the night and went back out in the morning to look for some mines

    So I bought this backpack years ago and it had a pouch the attaches to the top but never liked it being on because it made it difficult to get in the pouches, but I found a new place for it. Attached it to my headrest and it holds my deflator and inflator so I'm not looking everywhere for them.

    Heres the obstacle that I let my mom drive. Ive already done this trail a handful of times since its so close to their house so she had a good time with it.

    Pictures below are some of the new beauty marks I've received over the trip. Every wheel got a little bit of something. Front passenger side stuff is from the accident I had in Oregon, driver side was from top of the world. Rear bumper was from top of the world, If I didn't have a HC bumper I would have crippled my bedside for sure so shoutout to Pelfreybilt. Oh and can't forget my Rigid light that got moisture in it, never has it been submerged but the Amazon lightbar is just fine....

    Shitty photoshop but whats everyones thoughts on this? Ive been wanting a set of big round led lights, also thinking of putting a 40inch single row on the rack. Really not a fan of excessive lights but I'm sure I can keep a clean look

    3 would but close.. But it does look good. You can always get 2, see if you have room for a third then order it if so. Or wait and see how my light output is with a rigid sr2 40" ;)
