Photos Moab 2021 - EF's 25th anniversary

[KurtECV]

I got through Kane Creek and hamburger hill today.

The Missouri Explorers put in some work!!

Inches from total chaos!!!

Hamburger Hill took out my passenger axleshaft, but I still made it out and back to camp, the ujoint has left the building.

First time for me on Kane Creek - - pretty epic trail, but a long day . . .

I wish I would have gotten more photos of everyone. I had already been up and down hamburger hill several times on foot.

Sweet photos! It sure looks beautiful out there!!

Update on my father in law... Great news for a change!!

Char and I had no idea what to expect, other than what we were told from his doctors, and adult protective services in Texas. I am beyond angry with adult protective services. His case manager was absolutely clueless. She claimed he was a hard core alcoholic who couldn't put the bottle down. Since he has been with us, which is one week as of tonight, he hasn't asked for a drink at all. Not once. Not only that, but Char has him cutting back on cigarettes to only 10 per day. He was smoking multiple packs before he got here.

The first couple days he couldn't walk across the house without his walker, and he he had to stop to catch his breath going from room to room. Yesterday he walked from his room, outside and back with no walker, and no shortness of breath.

I am so glad we got him here when we did. I really think things can turn around for him.

Oh, and he eats like a horse that's been starved!

While I cant compete with awesome action pics (let's face it, a bone stock Expedition isnt exactly a rock crawler LoL). I'll try and throw some scenery at ya.

Fun trail run today on top of the world.

 

[traveler]

Some more pics, tried to include people and rigs this time.

 

[Rick]

Thanks for the pics. I get to live vicariously through photos

 

[traveler]

LoL I had to live vicariously even while there. Its not easy driving a bone stock Expedition while those around you are in extreme, well built rigs. They were kind enough to go on easy trails on Wednesday with me so I could at least go along.
In all fairness however, the Expo did much better than anticipated, even handling deep soft sand quite well.

. . . but, did you ever find that Starbucks?

Great job Mike (Ben too) getting up the TOTW trail, has increased significantly in difficulty since the last time I was up there…

Home after another all-nighter, safe travels to everyone, will sort through my limited pics and post after some rest.

ha no!! Was fun joking with all the built Jeep’s about missing the turn for the mall.

was a fun trail for sure. We made it home too, just about 2400 miles for me total on the trip. Explorer did good on the trails and towed the trailer well too

 

[Rick]

Did you guys see any new Broncos out there?

 

[Brian1]

Another great year in Moab! I didn't take very many photos which is a big change for me and instead just enjoyed the driving and hanging out. Here are some of the highlights I did get (Part 1)

Day 1 Hurrah Pass and Chicken Corners

Day 2 Kane Creek

Day 3 it was just Dwight and myself and we ran Spring Bottom to Hey Joe Canyon along the Green River that terminates at an old mine

 

[Brian1]

Part 2 of my photos from the post above is the last day where we ran Top of the World

 

[Mikerider]

Did you guys see any new Broncos out there?

I didn’t, got to see 2 in Seattle a few weeks ago. Still waiting for mine.

there was a raptor camera car and a Gen 3 raptor I saw though which was cool.

 

[Mikerider]

Great photos Brian. Thanks for the spotting to everyone too, was great picking my way up the hill.

 

[Brian1]

Did you guys see any new Broncos out there?

I saw one or two but they were just the boring ones and not on any trails

 

[KurtECV]

Made it home at about 630 last night. What a drive! I'm beat but it was well worth it all. Already cant wait to get back

Some more photos from the trip:

what a great trip, was a great 2400 miles.

Home at last:
