So... Broke the jk I'm with at fins and things then sank the chevy in Kane creek. Just hiked About ten miles to a rest stop on 191 out of a canyon. Overall actually an awesome day. Just need to hitch hike 13 some miles back to Moab.....
 
Damn Rich, that sucks! GL getting it unstuck. That being said, looks like your having one hell of a cool trip. :thumb:

Ok, so I don't have any pictures sunk, because we were afraid of darkness and knew we had at least an 8 mile hike ahead so we threw all our water and food into two backpacks and hit it. Here are a few shots prior.

And this is the last pic before we sunk ...

After hiking out the rest of the trail I think it is a good thing I got stuck where I did because this trail is nuts! I couldn't even find half of it on foot. There is a ton of sinky sand. I could have easily sunk in a dozen other places. The exit is a huge steep rock climb that would have been totally impossible for my truck, and there was even a truck that had rolled off of a 100 foot cliff and was left in the canyon.
 
On a side note, I heard back from the guy with the 14 bolt sf and he said it measured 67-68". The narrow size is 66" so this is probably the wide? I'm sure a more accurate measurement is needed, but hopefully I can get back to check it out :doah:
 
67-68 is right in line with the front 10b wms-wms width. Just went over this in Adams thread.
 
Yea, I tried to find where that was said but gave up.
 
Forgot to post here too. I'm out of the creek!
