This is the originally planned trip which was supposed to be our big maiden voyage, and we're well underway at this point. Truck ran flawlessly, and running between 60 and 65 mph is netting low 8's for mpg. Drive train is running smoothly and I am loving what the Eco hubs do for all the running gear speeds.

I am posting from outside Wellington, UT, where we've started down the UTBDR. We'll run a portion of it into the San Rafael Swell and then on to Hanksville, Capitol Reef, and Kanab. Last night was our first outside of civilization, and it was delightful.

Weather will be better in a day or so, but no complaints here- we're not at work.

Moved camp into the Swell today. Perched on top of Cedar Mountain tonight.

We'll be heading down off the rim in the next day or two, likely to be out of service at that point. Will keep in touch when I can though.
