I'd like to get back to Buena Vista, even just to camp there.

Need to fix the scout. I broke either the black box or the 205 in Moab over thanksgiving.

But I have no ambition to work on it in the cold and snow. It will wait for warmer weather

The jeep rear arb hasn’t worked for 3 years now. I’d like to get it fixed.

As far as trails, my only real goal is less competition and more trails. Nothing specific as of yet

Let's see,

Trip goals, 3-5 days of exploring the tetons and western Wyoming.

I also have a lot of local trails and roads to explore and learn my area.

CAMPING!

Vehicle goals...

F150- add some more storage organization and lighting.

Bronco- the list grows daily, but the priority is to clean it up and get is back to a reliable state.

Jeep- is now the wife's, so that's on her

Offroad Trailer- get the new wheels, tires, lights, build a new ramp, get the storage rack built.

Too many projects to many adventures, prioritizing adventure is the top of my list

Let's see some updates!

So far, I've met my goal of camping in each month, and currently stand at 48 nights vs. my goal of 40. I've got a plan to hit 52 nights if I stay motivated to camp in the cold after Expedition Utah's FYTO later this month.

I didn't run the Rubicon in 2022, or get to the Maze. I plan to rectify both of those short comings in 2023.

I have the parts to get my 80 slightly beefier for the Rubicon, I just need to find the motivation to install them. I also have a pile of parts for my 200, but need to spend some time in the shop installing them too. I like taking trips way more than I like working on vehicles.

How's everyone else doing on their 2022 goals?

At least 3-4 Moab trips (one will be EJS), hopefully the Moab car show (very ambitious) and a few other local car shows.

Likely Rubicon trip

Buick-paint and reassemble—drive the hell out of it

Jeep-new TBI 350 rebuild installed. Maintain a few odds/ends

check---3-4 Moab trips
partial check---Buick paint and reassemble ---- assembly needs work (headliner, side widows and some touch up paint work (yes, already))
Jeep---replaced with JT (or is it? It's not selling so maybe it gets stripped to as light as it can be, linked in the rear, transfer case update(?---come on money tree) and gets wheeled hard as it was intended to be 19 years ago?))

Rubicon didn't happen this year

Just use it to copy my buggy. You'll love it at that point.

Um, didn't wheel as much as I wanted last year, and besides Winter 4x4 and EJS, don't have any solid plans for this year. Probably the biggest change is a new direction with a rig. I love my JKUR and it has exceeded my expectations, but I'm missing doing harder trails, i.e. Coyote Canyon, Montrose, Hammers, and I don't want to risk body damage. Looking at options.

That’s exactly why I sold my JK and bought my buggy. I put it on its side 3 times at Sand Hollow and all it needs is a little touch up paint on the cage. I had zero stress while sitting on its side on the trails. It’s an extremely simple buggy and I can’t wait to get back to Pritchett, Montrose, and Sand Hollow for more hardcore stuff.

Are you going to sell the JKUR? Details?
