Moab Black Sheep Week -March 31-April 5, 2013

[HIROLA]

If all goes according to plan, I think I'll only see about an hours worth of Kansas in the light - maybe 2.

Did you read your PM from me?

Yes. I have one of those. Well actually I own one of those and Matt has it. Not sure if he is interested in it. Looks pretty nice but price is a little high. I paid $700.00 for mine.

April can't get here soon enough

 

[HIROLA]

I love the sound track that started around 4:30... It was used in the old Hummer Commercial.

 

[3Hummers]

Parts of that video will make you dizzy. LOL

 

[alrock]

Yep, no more filming while trying to hold a camera and driving. I use mounts for all of my filming now.

 

[Neo]

i prefer handheld video to a static mount camera filming just the trail with little interaction throw in a little alrock commentary and you have a perfect viewing experience :wink:

 

[alrock]

I prefer the ones with the Neo introduction

[Green 1]

I hope not I still have work to do.

 

[Neo]

hang in there Mikkel, Moab is still a snowy wet mess right now. 6 weeks buddy just 6 weeks and you'll get your fix :cheers:

 

[abearden]

Neo, any suggestions/opinions on Jeep rentals in town or reputations among the rental places?

At this point I don't think I can get the truck together without skimping on something (I can wait for the cash to order parts/labor and maybe make it, or I can put that money toward a jeep rental and definitely make it).

 

[Neo]

the adventure center has the nicest jeeps in their rental fleet , cliffhanger has the most capable ones and let you take them on the harder trails. the adventure center restricts their jeeps to the moderate trails only . there is also farabee's but they would be my 3rd choice .

euw... LOL

Is it really just 6 weeks? (counting) Yep, awesome. *very* ready to get away for a while.

Thank you! I was wondering why the price was $50 in either direction and that answers it. Cliffhanger it is.

The best part is . . . this Black Sheep week actually starts in March!

we had some newbies come in a real blingy jeep a trip or two ago and they didnt want to mess up their wheels so they rented one from cliffhanger and it had a nice amount of lift large tires plus front and rear lockers. they set them up nicely for the trails here with rocker protection etc.

 

[Kurt]

I might actually be able to make this trip for the whole week provided I can setup some place to camp vs burning money on rooms [unless the other half shows up, in which case we'll probably get a room somewhere].

I'm going to be between contracts at that time so if I can time my new job offer just right I should be good to go, I'll know by mid march 100%

 

[Green 1]

Hope you make it Kurt. I told my boss today and he said you can go as long as you are not in China.

 

[3Hummers]

Call your Chinese counterparts and make sure they understand your schedule.
