    2011 WY/MT Trip – Day 1

    Well we made it to our first stop on our journey north, Jackson WY. I can’t say that the ride out here was completely trouble free, (and no, I’m not talking about the tire issues). I’ll get to our rough spot here in a moment. I’m not always going to have the internet available, so you’ll have to wait for updates as I have access. And be forewarned, I’ve been away since 5 a.m. Friday morning, and have only had…

    Washita MX 7-30-11

    This past weekend, I wandered out to Washita MX for the trucks second off-road outing. Overall, the truck performed very well, though there’s a few things that need to be changed up. I’ll get to those later. We covered about 11 miles of trails (red dotted line):

    The Lone Ranger – 1st ORT 6/6/2011 SIJA Jeep Jam at SMORR

    I finally accumulated most of the photos from this weekend into one spot. I must say, SMORR is by far the nicest private off road park that I’ve ever been too. I really wish it wasn’t 4 hours away, but I will be making another trip down there in the future. All and all, we covered about 20 miles of trails while we were down there: Link to all the photos: http://saral.zenfolio.com/p276462752/slideshow Loaded up and headed out Friday afternoon: Setup…

    The Lone Ranger – 1st Long Road Trip

    The wife and I took the first ‘long’ road trip in the Ranger this weekend (about 600 miles round trip). While not really part of the build, I thought a little update on how the thing does on the road would make some sense. Onto the photos! Headed south (MO) on the two lane for awhile: Stopped at Blue Springs: Continued on To Rocky Falls: And then onto Alley Spring/Mill. This mill is a little different as it uses a…

    Flat Nasty 11/15/08 With the ’87 XJ

    This was one of my first trips out in the ’87 XJ, and it was also my first trip to Flat Nasty Off Road. Sadly, I didn’t get to see much of the park during this trip as I managed to stuff the fan into the radiator early in the day which ended my fun on the trails. Some photos from the day: It has been fun going through these old photos. I get a kick out of seeing how…
