    actually, that XJ way too far to the passenger side. When I've done it the passenger front tire comes down almost where his driverside tire is.

    They do that for Jeep Safari, because jeepers can't pick lines. ;)

    Don't change anything. Kane's was my favorite first time trail and I ran it with Ben too. He knows his stuff. All the trails you picked are awesome so stick with them man. There is always next year. But if you decide to change we won't mind having you.

    Thanks for the good advice and welcoming attitude. I guess it just looks like a short list and I hope to wheel as much as possible. I will try to do minor threat at some point too and just mess around in the BFE playground and other nearby trails. Hopefully there is a Saturday night run in the works. Maybe I can just jump in on a few other trails when I have time.

    Not to rub it in but I can also go back before next year cuz it's only 7hrs to get there from my place :) and there is still the whole summer!

    Is TOTW far from Moab and BFE? I know you guys are doing it on the way back but I am not leaving the day after the meet gets done.

    Edit-never mind I looked it up. About 35 mi
