Wjtstudios were you able to calculate a cost for the permits yet?

May be bringing 03 WJ on 35s and 01 TJ on 31s. 5 people

We won’t know the total cost until the insurance gets underwritten which won’t happen till about 30 days out as well as until we have final numbers.

Right now, not including the insurance that we are required to have, the BLM permit costs $6 per day per person of trail use.

Sounds good. Once you guys think your going to be able to make it work schedule wise, I’ll add you to the list so that way I’ll remember to send you all the details as we get closer to the run.

What's the insurance for? If I don't end up making it with the group and go on my own is that something I still need to do? Is that for Colorado or Moab?

It’s to protect the land if something happens. We are required to have it because we are a larger group. If you are just a couple Jeeps, I’m sure your fine without but the other guys that have been there can answer better.

I’m new to Wayalife but have been loving reading various threads. We are headed out west from MO this summer. Big RV trip and taking the Jeep with us. It’ll be me, the wife, our two kids (10 and 7) and the dog. We will be in the Moab area August 1-5. After reading this thread, I realize we will be there at the same time.

This is also the first Jeep (JLUR, 2” lift, 35” tires) we have owned. I’m certainly not looking at getting onto any trails that are above my currently limited skill set, but we would like to explore a little bit. Especially something the kids would be able to remember and be excited about. My wife and I are getting some off-road experience through the help of friends, local Jeep club, and considering an actual off-roading course. I anticipate that by the time we make our trip, we should at least have some comfort level to accomplish a few trails out there.

Any recommendations on trails for a beginner in and around the Moab area? Ones that would not scare the socks off my wife? We’d love to tagalong with others for a day or two as well.

We’ll be staying at the Moab KOA Holiday.
