ALL overnight lodging of any kind is closed. There is currently no estimate as to when it will re-open. And there is no camping anywhere in Grand, Emery, or Carbon counties...not even in dispersed backcountry camping areas unless you are a resident of the county. Law enforcement officers...
They aren't totally water-tight (or at least mine weren't). But if you bend the uppers in to where the top of the door contacts the vehicle first and you need to pull on the handle to close the door, they seal really well. I remember putting the mounting posts for the uppers into a bench vise...
I don't have a clue why anyone would recommend mirrors like that on the fabric doors. The great thing about those doors is that you can take the tops and bottoms off and easily store them in the vehicle. Those mirrors will just get in the way, prevent compact stacking, and you will have NO...
Varmints do seem to love that cover on the battery. For awhile, I was cleaning newly-constructed mouse nests off it almost every day. A few months ago, I found a dead mouse on the front passenger seat...no idea how it got in. Everything was locked up tightly. After I lock my cats in the...
Photos of the concepts are usually leaked about a week prior to the safari. Sometimes macro photos are leaked a couple of weeks earlier...giving a slight hint about individual features of a vehicle or two. I had previously marked March 30 on my calendar as a date to search for some photos...
There was a prior thread on the safari and cancellation that, thankfully, did not degrade as quickly as this one. https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/easter-jeep-safari-2020.28730/page-2
They are mis-informed if they think the closures were ordered by the city and county councils. The Southeast Utah Health Department was forced into action because the city and county councils failed to put protective measures in place after pressure from business owners. I'm glad the Red Rock...
The second sentence seems to have been removed. They are quick to point the finger at the wrong place. It was not the City and County Councils that imposed the restrictions. It was the Southeast Utah Health Department which represents a 3-county area. I sincerely hope that, in their upcoming...
From the Health Dept. order: "SEUHD requests that visitors that are not here on essential business return to their home and non-essential visitors planning to come to Carbon, Emery, and Grand counties reconsider their plans and remain near their home." They define essential visitors as "any...
Moab is now pretty much closed folks. Within the past hour a new order was issued by Health Dept. You can stay updated at: https://www.facebook.com/cityofmoab/ . Sounds like if you don't already have reservations, you are out of luck. That seems unclear at this point.
Here is a quote from the...
Things change. At this point, I think it will be irresponsible of Jeep Safari officials if they do not cancel this year's event. Town is already packed with tourists. Almost all campsites along Highway 128 were full today. Ski resorts in Utah and Colorado are now closed...so people are coming...
Zero chance that trails will be closed. There is always a slim chance the Red Rock 4-Wheelers may cancel the Safari, but I do not see that happening. Trail groups are relatively small and people are in their own vehicles. No mass gatherings.
Personally, I like round lights on the JT. I mounted some Baja Designs LP6 Pros on the bumper. They are sort of a hybrid round/square. The housings are round but the lenses are flattened on the sides to produce a 200-degree light spread. I've always been dead set against mounting lights...
At a packed emergency Grand County Council meeting this morning to consider an Executive Order which would have placed a 30-day ban on gatherings of 250 or larger outside and 100 or larger inside (due to Covid-19 concerns), a representative of the Red Rock 4-Wheelers said "we will cancel the...
Had these on my JKUR...very convenient. As already mentioned, you will most likely need to do some adjustment (aka bending) to get them to seal better. They are extremely noisy. I might even consider buying a set of just fronts for the Gladiator.
