    I went through bobs thread with pics from earlier this year, and I did drool on my iPad. I blamed it on the baby.
    Anyway I have started working on the wife, she fell in love with the scenery and I think she wants to see where all this money went in the truck so we just might go. Problem is that everybody is leaving on our last day teaching and you can't really take the last day off. Maybe I will find someone else who has to leave the 31st and will stay a couple extra days...

    Last year, I left Denver on Thursday night after work. Hit trails on friday, saturday, and a short/easy one on the way out of town back to Denver on Sunday. Even if it's a short trip, it's still a great time.

    Ashley and I are getting antsy (well maybe just me?) But we are getting there. Might have a new camping trailer that we will be bringing as well as some more 1st time guys, and some from last year. Don't know yet if the jeep will be making a return trip or not.

    Hey Bob, where did you get your shock hoops in the back? Were they a custom job or from a manufacturer? Might need to get some here soon.

    shock hoops?

    my foxes mount into the factory hoop.

    the reservoir mounts? used pipe clamps with some rubber strips where it meets the outside of the resi and used a soft rectangular sanding block with some rubber on it between the resi and the frame...cheap and easy to adjust and install/remove

    Oh man! Check out flying out of grand junction, they have a decent little airport and it might significantly cut down on some of your drive time
