Did another out west trip this fall - was in Moab and Colorado. The JL and the new mods since last time in Moab did great (dynatrac endurosport lift, steel front bumper/winch, evo engine/exhaust loop skid).

In Moab, we hired Curtis from Dan Mick for our trail guide on Hell's Revenge. The JL did amazing.

Next, we hired Richard from Dan Mick's group to do Top of the World! Loved this trail, couldn't have done it without the great spotting. No damage other than normal skid/slider stuff and broke the rear bumper mount on the passenger side, and tore the license plate off lol. The iconic shot was worth it!

Lastly, Rocky Mountain national park! Fall colors were at their peak and absolutely gorgeous.

Sorry but I'm going to have to nope right the hell out of that shot right there. My hands are sweating just looking at it, and you're talking to a guy who used to hang off the strut of a C172 at 12,000 ft for fun in my stupid youth when I was young, immortal, and much less afraid of heights.

I dont care if there were fifty brake pedals in that Jeep, if you handed me $1000 and said "Pull the Jeep up to the edge so I can take a picture" I would have handed that money right back to you standing there with my arms folded while shaking my head NO back and forth at Mach 6.

Great pictures though! My wife dragged me out to Moab last year, very cool place. Riding the trails looks like fun.
 
I have always loved the western half of the US for its scenery. So nice out there.
 
Looks fun! Nice pictures!
Thanks!
Lionsback peak?
Hells Revenge, so lions back is somewhere in the background!

I had always wanted to get that shot, and then when it came time to get it lined up I just looked over the hood and was in awe. Luckily I had a spotter standing there guiding me!
Breathtaking views! I understand how the terrain tells us all how the offroad community is strong.
It is a strong community for sure.
Beautiful scenery and drive. (y)

It really is. You can pick any random point almost and then drive an hour away in any direction and be in something different. I love that.
Nothing better than a guy with a Jeep who isn't afraid to use it. Even more better that it looks pretty stock and gits er done. (y)

And no ducks visible.
Haha, thanks! Exactly, the mods are pretty subtle on it and purely for function, not looks so I always feel like people under estimate it. But it sure is capable. The lift was a huge help with these trails. But these Jeeps don't need a lot of mods (if any really) to be amazing off road. I don't think I saw a single duck in Moab LOL.
