This was taken on a cruise on a rare day when the sun came out and I could watch the sun set -- at 11pm. :D

Sand Hollow, UT

I figured I'd post just a short trip report for a Sand Hollow trip in Utah that we did last weekend.

The forecast we super hot for both days (over 100 degrees) so we decided to go in the morning.

We ran Milts Mile on Saturday. That was a really fun trail, but it claimed my passenger-side hub knob. I was able to scoot up middle monkey (which was hella steep but surprisingly not too scary).

The off-camber stuff scared me the most. In the photo above, this section of rock had me in my head so much that I stopped and my spotter and to jump out and assure me the passenger tire was still on the ground.

I don't have sway bars at all (with plans to fix that) so I get tons of body roll.

On Sunday, we ran Ridgeline and the first part of West Rim trail. My wife drove that day and had zero problems with the initial shelves and rocky climb on Ridgeline.

She was able to take the "fun" lines at the Funnel and Steps as well.

What blew me away is she managed to drive up Toll Booth #1. I didn't

Beach camping is pretty rad. I’m going back someday.

Anybody else live the awning-tent life?

I've got an ARB awning tent that packs relatively compact and light that I use for camping when wheeling. Works super well for me and my dogs (or whoever's with me).

This is what happiness looks like for Ellie

Was at my parent's house in cool weather and we were able to play fetch until she was completely exhausted. Then we had BBQ haha.

SAS 100 Series and FJC

A couple years ago, my buddy and I had just finished enough of his SAS project on the hundie that we needed a test drive. This trail is relatively close and has some great views. We managed to rope our other friend (who owns the orange FJC) into it as well.

Nothing failed and all the welds stayed welded, so that was nice.

Drove out a week ago to scout some photography locations

Me and a buddy are trying to find some good photography locations for the Oct. eclipse in the United States. Was able to get some decent shots out in western Utah.

Welcome to /c/offroad

I created this community as a landing zone for reddit offroad refugees. I've only got so many trip reports and Jeep/Land Cruiser photos though. If you're new, please help us flood this new community with photos of your rig and trips.

  • I'll try to post some photos myself. Not sure if lemmy just doesn't like imgur or what though... previews aren't showing up.

  • Ah -- got it. You should probably drop the [OC] tag in the title.

  • Was gonna say... this sunset is pretty outstanding.... then noticed it was night time. Awesome shot... unfortunate for the park though. I also wanted to say, I follow your IG -- I love your photos. I hope you keep posting here.
