wow. got back yesterday at 11:00 pm from our 13 hour drive. this was the most scariest trip i've ever been on! being that high on narrow rocks, feeling tippy and not being able to see where your going was making me shake a bit.
best trip i've ever been on. it was worth the drive and hey i didn't even break anything. all the people were great as usual,m i've never been on an explorerforum run and not meet some great people.
ended up leaving for moab wednesday night at 1am, made it to moab at about 3pm thursday and the rest of the day we just set up camp, walked around the city, and kicked back. the next day (friday) we (me, justin, and jim) woke up and noticed that no one was around the camp. got a text from danny saying he was gonna be a bit late and i forgoat we had to meet at the city market! oh well we all made it there and proceeded to the trail. about a 15 mile drive from town was the start of the trail. somehow the group got split inot two groups, all the people really eeger to get going and the people that worked a few things out at the market. the first part of te trail was pretty much a dirt road with some hills and turns, so me and danny decided to try and catch up with the other part of the group that was ahead of us. we didn't catch up with them but it was a fun prerun. but we thought we were lost and turned around and found the our group. we met up the rest of them at rose garden hill. all the other 2door cars had just went up and mrboyl was starting when we got there. turned out to be a long time we stayed at that hill trying to get everyone up the ledge in the middle. mike was the only on that needed winched, and the flyboy and the sport-trac said nay nay to the hill and took a different way to top of the world trail. after that it was a pretty simple trail to get to the top of the wolrd trail. at this point the cars in the group were: 2 sports, 2 navajos, 2 jeeps, 3 four doors, an early bronco, and a dodge power ram (there was two 4doors and a sport-trac that weren't with us) then kevin and mike headed back to town to fix the tracbar.
the rest of us continued to the top of the world, a few fun ledges on the way and little stuff like that. the scenery up at the top was amazing. there is a huge crack over on the left that goes all the way down, so it was neet to look down that. made some sandwiches and talked a bit and then we all took turns getting the famous picture. headed down the hill and got the open dirt road where we decided to go ahead of everyone and put the peddle to the floor and haul some aaaaaaaaa. found a fun little jump too.
threw the day, the rear stated to sag some more on the navajo so we did a lot of scrapping the bumper, and the shocks the whole trip.
got back to camp and about 2 minutes later kevein and show saw "hey you wanna have some fun?" "potato salid hill, right now, lets go" that hill is much much much steeper and harder than it looked in videos. early bronco went up it, then kevein, then painter ken. then the bronco again, but this time going straight up the center, which was a lot more difficult than the line everyone else took to the right. i was next in line to go up after the bronco, but as we all know, the bronco flipped and we were there till 10 at night geting him on the trailer.
