    I posted this in the 2nd Gen forum, too.

    We were staying on a fire road in red canyon, near Bryce.

    I like your trailer. How wide, long and high is it? What's the height of the bed off the ground? How's it tow?

    Thanks,

    I'll have to take some measurements, but it's a standard military M101, A2 variant.

    It tows great, even around 80mph which I did occasionally on the highway. Certainly no issues off road. I haven't taken it on anything too crazy, but no issues on the forest roads and trails. It's got 235/85/16's.

    The tongue has been modified a bit, mostly to remove the old surge brake parts. I did extended the tongue by about 12", too.

    It'll still get down some of the rougher areas, but that's exactly what I'll be using it for.

    The M101 is getting harder to find, but an m1101 or 1102 would work well, too. I used govplanet.

    The problem with the 6-bolt pattern is maintaining the weight rating. I'd like to keep the trailer multi-purpose.

    It dried out pretty good. I dried it with a towel when it stopped, and it dried enough to put away.

    Once it stops raining again, ill dry it out for a few hours just to be sure.
