Its fun! Well, maybe not fun, but it can be more convenient. Save time airing down. Set your tire pressures with accuracy. Simply attach the clip-on chuck to your tire stem and read the pressure. Push the bleeder button to air down. Or, run an air line to the air gauge's built-in tank valve and air up tires through the gauge. Checking and setting accurate tire pressures becomes easy and quick. Complete instructions included with your gauge. Order one today!

GPS Part I

I use a Garmin 12xl, handheld GPS on trails and while exploring. To find direction and more importantly to note where certain roads, sites, or intersections are located the Garmin 12xl works great. While exploring backroads of Utah, I developed a method which I use to help me keep track of position information and trail notes. The track log, routes and waypoints are downloaded to computer for storage. If I am headed back to a favorite area a couple of mouse clicks is all it takes to upload waypoints and routes to the GPS memory.

GPS Part II

My GPS is powered off the vehicle battery and sits in a custom fabricated mount. Finding suitable space to fit a new gadget is always a challenge in a CJ-5. My custom mount is actually a factory mount modified with three suction cups and a little file work to fit the 12xl in from the opposite direction. The mount sticks to the window above the dash and hangs down so the GPS slides up into the mount.

Trails

Utah | Colorado | California | What's New | Top

Some trails have names while other trails are named for nearby obstacles or landmarks. Here are a few of the runs I've made recently. Also included are places I've enjoyed exploring around Utah. Please enjoy. Based on the comments I receive I'll expand this area as time permits.

Utah Trails

• Poison Spider Mesa. A perennial favorite. First time was in a stock CJ with open diff's. The experience opened my wife's eyes to the necessity of lockers, lifts and taller tires.
• Moab Rim. Came down this trail once with a small group of friends, at night, using only parking lights.

Above photos are Lion's Back Fin, Salt Creek Canyon, Squeeze Play and Golden Staircase on Elephant Hill Trail. Future Moab trail write ups with photos are planned for Cliff Hanger, Steel Bender, Flat Iron Mesa, Sevenmile Rim, Hey Joe Canyon, Top of the World, Fins & Things, Pritchett Canyon, Porcupine Rim, Elephant Hill, Salt Creek Canyon, and the trip up and down Lion's Back Fin.

This photo is Dan Mick going ballistic at the top of White Knuckle Hill on the Pritchett Canyon Trail. I've spent lots of time exploring many of Utah's backroads, including, Hell's Backbone, Death Canyon, Marjum Pass, Joy, Ibex, Sinbad, Topaz Mt. and the Pony Express Trail.

Colorado Trails

Utah | Colorado | California | What's New | Top

I like these trails for the sheer pleasure of the magnificant views.

• Imogene Pass. The start of Imogene seems to start in a driveway of a house on the hillside of Telluride. It's narrow but vehicles in both directions can pass with care. Generally uphill traffic has the right-of-way. Courtesy between drivers is much appreciated. We like to stop at the Tomboy mine for lunch. Try and imagine the effort it took to bring heavy boilers up a narrow, twisting and steep "jeep" road to an altitude above the tree line. Many of the old mine structures are gone now a victim to erosion and the forces of nature. The road continues up and over the pass to descend finally to the south edge of Ouray.
• Engineer Pass, Pougkeepsie Gulch, Cork Screw, Ophir.

California

Utah | Colorado | California | What's New | Top

A bit of a long drive these days to get anywhere, especially from Utah. After the drive I'm beginning to understand why many of you have never been to Moab. It was worth the trip to see the Rubicon first hand.

• Rubicon. Driving the Rubicon was a dream come true in many ways. I am working on full write-up with photos. Over the months of planning and preparation our group put their assurances in the fact that our leader had been over the trail before. However, the week before our trip his scrambler rolled throwing the trail leader into the hospital. When the subject of a new leader came up I think everyone else took a step backwards leaving me out in front so to speak. Being a leader on an unfamiliar trail like the Rubicon is the story. Stay tuned.
