Here is Scott "OldMopars" volunteering to be the first person launched into space setting a bead.

It took a Village to get this Idiot and his trailer "Big Butt" to Nighthawk. To those that made the trip, I want to sincerely thank all of you for your help. You know this was a daily/hourly practice in teamwork, knowledge and shooting from the hip solutions to get me and the group going...

We made it!!! Paul, Ole and I. Quite the challenge! I thought I had a group photo of us, but dont. More to follow

Wow, total alarm failure some how. Still in Everett. I will meet you guys at the first camp site . Hopefully I can find you guys. Heading to Packwood area now

So just double checking, GMRS 15 is 462.5500?

Not worried about security, would like to shoot if we have the opportunity. Definitely not a big fan of the northern border.

Waited all day for my serpentine belt to show up. Fed Ex ###### me! I'll be doing the red eye down, probably napping at the market waiting to meet all you great peeps. What ammo you bringing Army, 9, 40 and 5.56 for me.

Works fabulous

Greg, do you have a latest and greatest GPX for the trip. Trying to get all my electronic stuff up to date.

Name: Scott Balsley Vehicle: Jeep JLUR (stock suspension/ AT tires), sliders, rear bumper tire/gerry can holder, straps, recovery ring. Home built square drop trailer(not by me) Souls: Myself Comms: Baofeng UV-5RX3 Ham, no license. GMRS license pending, same radio Duration: Full tilt boogie...

Great input from all as the countdown nears. Are there any overnight areas that will require reservations, or I should say if I dont have any reservations is it going to be me and Sasquatch fighting over the Jacklinks for the night?

Good advice, at some point I need to swap the drums over and maybe move the fenders up to match the jeep. Until then I will keep an eye out for a suitable spare and cross my fingers with BFG K02's and a plug kit for now.

No worries there, it has more ground clearance than the jeep and is built pretty sturdy.

I can't pass this up! If anyone has any concerns or advice whether a JLUR with a "square drop" trailer would have issues on this, let me know. This would be the first adventure for both vehicles and would love the opportunity to learn from some more experienced overlanders.

I just bought a "square drop" trailer home built. Structurally its 100 percent and way over built, 3500# Timbren axles, 6000# brakes, left over steel from the Titanic for the frame. Things I would design in, which worked perfect by coincidence with mine, would be tongue length. In my opinion...

Thanks for the info Mike, I'll try to make the call

Hello everybody, new member here from Everett, Wa. Recently acquired a 2020 JLUR and a home made "squaredrop" trailer. Looking forward to meeting as many of you as possible, and learning a few new tricks along the way
