Live from The Maze

yep · 04-27-08, 01:16 PM

All is well on the Norcal's pre-Moab adventure... see you in Moab.

Uploading a shot from this morning...

yep · 04-27-08, 01:25 PM

Enjoy...

yep · 04-27-08, 01:36 PM

OK, one more...

yep · 04-27-08, 05:32 PM

Fun...

Cruiserdrew · 04-27-08, 05:40 PM

This is a little weird to have internet access from one of the most remote spots in the USA. It took us several hours to get out to the dollhouse including some classic moab 4 wheeling. The trail out to the Dollhouse is much more serious than I expected.

Also cool that we had a radio contact with some of the Rising Sun guys and girls. We are out in the Maze district of Canyonlands NP and they were up on Porcupine Rim outside of Moab. We had clear contact on low power simplex. Very cool for you radio heads.

Yep (David) has promised more shots later.

Now imagine it in a 44 year old rig with open diffs and NO REAR SHOCKS! I think it took me almost 5 hours from the dollhouse turnoff to camp, pacing the 45 to keep the recoil to a minimum.

Look forward to sharing a martini in camp and sharing more stories Andy.

Andy,

Did Sam Wise make it?
I can't believe you have cell and Internet access.

Pretty cool

Snook · 04-28-08, 09:28 PM

Cool, looks like you're all having a blast time.

Yep, who is carrying all of your crap?

Cheers,

Cruiserdrew · 04-29-08, 08:03 AM

Enjoy your coffee...

Cruiserdrew · 04-29-08, 08:11 AM

Post #9 looks like a postcard.

Great Picture!

jonb96150 · 04-29-08, 08:40 AM

I've spent a fair amount of time in Moab, but I've never been to this area, it looks fantastic. Maybe next year in the 70! Thanks for the pix.

beno · 04-29-08, 08:48 AM

Beautiful Pics Andrew!

Brentbba · 04-29-08, 10:11 AM

Andy - I knew there was a reason I hated you!

Keep the pics coming. At least those of us stuck in offices can live vicariously through your wonderful pictures.

Grolar · 04-29-08, 02:15 PM

Wow. I always wanted to go there but have been prevented from doing it so far. Your pics are for sure a strong incentive. Keep them coming.

pint · 04-29-08, 02:59 PM

Great pictures! I can't wait to get the truck to moab...maybe next year? I've done all the trails with the MTB, but not since I've had a decent truck.

ginericLC · 04-29-08, 05:57 PM

I'm with you Andy! WOW! I'm getting my maps out now

jb welda · 04-30-08, 03:46 PM

HawkDriver · 04-30-08, 08:38 PM

Now that looks amazing. Thanks!

rockclmbr · 04-30-08, 10:36 PM

Wow! Looks amazing! Wish I were there

missouriman · 05-01-08, 10:11 PM

Wow, That Is Awsome!

D'Animal · 05-02-08, 06:32 AM

Did Andy break his camera?

No new pictures in 3 days.

i4c4lo · 05-02-08, 07:16 PM

D'Animal,

The Maze trip started in Hanksville, UT 6 days ago. They arrived in Moab Wednesday and now part of Cruise Moab. So he is probably too busy having fun to post but I am sure he will give a trip report and hopefully more photos when he gets home. He is leaving Moab Saturday (tomorrow).

spressomon · 05-03-08, 05:41 PM

Great pics Andy, et al! Damn...I'm envious no doubt!

nuclearlemon · 05-03-08, 09:30 PM

And, on an HT using a quarter-watt, and an 8" rubber-ducky antenna, nonetheless! Pretty cool!
