Alma is the nearest town, which is about 10 miles from the top. I have kept the truck pretty well maintained as far as AHC, bushings, springs, etc. All of the standard items. It runs like a top and is built like a tank. I would take it anywhere within reason.

Ophir pass.
What was the sketchy part of Sand Hollow - on the way up to top of the world?
Keep wanting to explore there but we always run out of time, we have friends in Hurricane.
Also, really admire you going out there at this time of year in these temps.
I'm on the lookout for altitude or a place by a lake or river.
I figured after 9 months it was a good time for a bath and some Glamour Shots

What tire carrier Is that?

Many of the trails are not well marked and you end up in places where the only way out is down a 50’ sand dune with your wife and mother in law screaming at you (theoretically). The way up to top of the world wasn’t bad. And yeah, trying to sleep in 90+ degree heat at 11pm is rough. I’m used to 6500’

How do you like the Firestone Destination M/T2? It's not a tire that you hear a lot about.
Love their YouTube channel. Seem like a cool group of guys
They are amazing. A bit loud, but better than other mud terrains I've run. I have about 30k on them and they still have plenty of life left.
Took her out
I watch all their episodes lol
Just got back from a 2,500 mile trip with the old girl out West. We ran some great trails in CO and UT, found great camping spots, shared stories, food and laughter with good friends and came back refreshed. The old girl did GREAT and got us back in one piece. Some lessons learned on equipment and modifications that need to be addressed, but overall very happy with the setup.
Headed to Ouray then Serpentine belt broke near Cisco UT. AAA paid to tow the 100 but i paid $500
towing the trailer to the repair shop in Grand Junction. Checked in a hotel tonight to wait for
the belt replacement tomorrow

We just returned a couple of days ago from a 6000-miler... Here are a few random pics of the adventure.

Lots of good times... Waved at every 100 we saw along the way.. Maybe a few of them were some of you guys..

^^ Nik, what? you had to pay $500 extra to have the trailer hooked up to the truck and taken along when they already had to take the 100 on the truck? No extra distance and hardly any extra time and work? Wow... That seems pretty sketchy.
Yep AAA did disclose that the trailer was extra.
Tow truck co and the driver called me before going out and quoted me $512 for the 55 mile trip. It was 106 degrees on I70 yesterday so it was one of those Get er done moments . The hotel was $ 245 since i have a small dog and no reservations. My mechanic in the Bay Area just installed 863J springs , oil change, power steering and Radiator flush,Brakes inspected too with tire rotation last weekend for this trip. Grateful we are safe and cant wait to head to our destination
