I never did took this trail before, and if you haven't done it since they relocated the trail after Lake Canyon trail washed out, the relocated trail would be new to you, also. It was a lot rougher than I expected, and had to do a lot of spotting or getting out and walking the obstacles. At several points, the path goes up slick rock at about 45 degrees for 50 to 100 feet with drop-offs on at least one side. As soon as I got over to Bullfrog where I had good cell coverage, I ordered 4 new Bilstein shocks and new upper control arm ends for the R-E long-arms I got on the rig. Then, we headed for Vegas for a few hours and then the Virgin River Casino overnight. On the way home, the engine was acting up, and it looks like a bad throttle position sensor according to my meter, but replacing that didn't seem to fix everything. More later on another thread when I figure out what's wrong.
 
My brother (from Rochester, NY and another NAXJA member) and I went alone in one XJ. As far as pictures, it was overcast and hazy, so I just have a few overlooking the San Juan from South of Nokai Dome and maybe some from the ferry ride across from Hall's Crossing to Bullfrog. Not very exciting. I'll look and if I have anything more, I'll post them.
