Took the Cj5 this year. I've been going for years but due to my large reduction in riding I decided to take the CJ on my longest trip in it so far totaling around 700 miles over the weekend. I ran a lot of forest service roads and hit some more challenging trails in the process. Nothing too serious but it helped me gain confidence in the reliability of the 5 and what I can get away with in it.
In the carhole ready to roll out that morning. The extension cord going into it from the passenger side is to power my 12v refrigerator until departure.
Quick lakeside shot as I went back Broken Bow lake.
Camp from Thurs night to Sunday morning.
Early morning from the hammock.
Top off windshield down
I love marking potential future campsites GAIA when I'm out exploring.
I managed to find a trail that hadn't been in use for some time it seems. I called it "spider alley". It took me forever to get though it because every 1/4 or 1/2 mile I'd have to stop and brush dozens of spiders off the Jeep. On the upside the trail had a few technical sections that were spider free and fun.
No comment.
Mount Magaine was my destination. After about 100 miles of dirt.
That evening many stickbugs and spiders made their appearance on their new home.
Day 3 woke up to heavy fog.
Friends
Obligatory flex shot
Shady Lake Dam
That night some storms moved in so I moved into the CJ for a little while. After deploying my emergency rain tarp.
This morning after heading out.
I told'em next year I'm bringing the 2A.
I had some videos but can't get them to embed from FB.

TossingLead, would you be willing to share where this tower is? I'm headed up to the area with a group in about a week. Sure would be cool to check this out while we are up there. Thanks!

I made it home. Still sorting through pics. Lots of fog in the mornings, and a thunderstorm cut Saturday evening festivities short, but a good time appeared to be had by all.
Excellent. Thank you Sir!It's the Honobia Fire Tower.
If that is the one on the K-Trail, I've actually been there. Looks like they have 'refurbished' it since I've been there, if you can believe that.
If you have a group that can off-road ride good and like a little bit of a challenge head up to the tower on D4675 from Muse.
Looks like they have 'refurbished', No it has not been.

La Flore 6023 was more than I wanted to continue on with the Versys 300x, after going down on the baby heads.

I've been on that trail in my XJ. Last time about 2 or 2.5 years ago. Was heavily overgrown and may possibly be private now. My buddy in his newish pickup was none to happy with me on that one but nearly every semi challenging trail in that area is going to be tight.
Yes, that gets really sketchy on the east end as you cross Big Cedar Creek. One of the roughest roads I've ridden on my Africa Twin. Would be much more fun on a small bike.

Yea, I went in from the east off 259, after coming down D1625.

I tried to trade the Tiddler for a larger motorcycle but couldn't make a deal.
Cool little Jeep!
Also a fun ride
