Update:
We did the full day on the Arkansas through the Royal Gorge, it was a blast. Water level was low (864ft3/s) so made it a much more technical raft, but a Class IV is still a Class IV. Lost my better half off the back of the raft at Sledgehammer which was an interesting 20-some seconds and despite some bruises all ended well.
No major wheeling on this trip. We just did Shelf Road up to Cripple Creek then back Phantom Canyon Rd, and a handful of other backcountry trails up Hwy50 and around Canon City. We shot up towards Colorado Springs and hit Pike's Peak since we were so close and I had never been up to a +14'er.

The entire trip was going great... until the ride home. We had just got through the OK panhandle at Woodward when I stopped for gas and smelled burning rubber. Popped the hood and knew the trip was over... Glad it didn't happen in the +100mi of nothing in Kansas

Big shout out to Vernon at McIntosh Towing in Woodward who didn't hesitate to make the 328mi tow at 4:30pm on a Sunday afternoon (unlike a few others) and the dudes in O'Reilly for letting my crew camp out in their store to stay out of the 100deg heat. The rig is at my local dealer now. Yes, I could have stayed in Woodward and hit their Jeep dealer the next day, but given the size of the town I would have likely been stuck there for several days and I'm not certain it's only the alternator; so I made the call to sleep in my own bed and have her carried home.

Great pics from the rafting trip, looks like a blast.

My wife and I spent Labor Day weekend running trails with the Red Rock 4 Wheelers in Moab as part of their Labor Day event. On Monday's trail my wife took this picture of one of the indigenous species. That is a 500 ft cliff overlooking the Colorado River that the Big Horn sheep is standing next to. I would have been a little nervous standing that close to a 500 ft drop, but it didn't seem to bother the sheep in the slightest, LOL. We had a great time in Moab.
