I am thinking of going next year. Just trying to figure out how to tow the Jeep and a camper.

You got the best folks on the planet sharing to get another family member home.
If nothing changes by morning a can hook up trailer and come get you after work.
You have Lilly but that's no big deal other than getting you both home.
Jeep can hang with trailer as long as needed.

Dusty,
I do think there are some FSJ'ers in the Globe area, either here or on the IFSJ. Hope you and the rig get home safely!

I bought a J10 outside of Show Low way back when.. flew out to Phoenix, rented a uhaul and dolly, drove out there and drug the poor thing back to VA. Not much out there as I recall.

Back home this afternoon at 4:30 no issues. Thankful for the lack of jerk drivers this time. Had a great time hanging out with you all. Thanks for tolerating my Toyota :D

I had a great time! I wish the jeep hadn't broken but that's part of it. I still got some good runs in and it was fun being the passenger with Kevin on Friday. So much more to see when you are not watching the trail.

I'm a little bummed that Tom (HOOT) wasn't there this year. He's made it every year that I have except this one. :(

OK we FINALLY made it back early Monday morning the 23rd. As some of you know, we left Simi Valley, CA Monday the 16th at 1030am. Had to return home Tuesday morning at 130am due to my towing truck overheating. Borrowed a friends Ford truck and left again Tuesday morning at 730am. Had minor issues with that truck and finally got to Ouray Wednesday morning about 1130. My J10 decided to not run good Thursday or Friday so didn't get to do much wheeling (maybe 3 miles total). Anyway, we left Saturday morning, had an axle bearing on the trailer go out at 130am in California. Had to unload the J10, chain up the axle on the trailer and tow it home empty on 3 wheels. Then returned that afternoon/evening and flat towed the jeep home. So we spent about 70 hours driving on a 20 hour driving trip and the J10 didn't even wheel :( But, it was great to see everyone and we have booked the same cabin for next year (fuel injection will be installed by then). Thank you all for putting this on.
