Trip planned to remote area - what to bring?

[usurper]

hi-lift jack
Spare tire in the bed, not under the truck
Toilet
Tents/shade


Place looks pretty cool.

A second vehicle is always good if possible - don’t go alone. My raptor is currently at Ford because it has tendencies to leave me stranded.

In addition to what others have mentioned: Lots and lots of water, a hat, sunscreen. Maybe buy a 5-10 gallon jug.

Not seeing a need for a gun in Utah but just so you can keep it secure and know how to use it, it might be useful.

Canyon lands is super tight. I remember some areas that I could barely get through in my Wrangler TJ. Bigger vehicles couldn’t turn on the switchbacks (on elephant hill) and had to proceed in reverse. These were all still smaller than a raptor.

Camera - post lots of pics when you return!

10mm is the best mm. A couple of extra mags.

I second 10mm. Fine caliber. But it has to be loaded correctly, if not, it is just a .40 Cal...

I've spent a lot of time there. Bring a compass and a topo map. Elephant Hill is a 3 rated jeep trail, nothing to crazy but bombing around in the sand will be fun.

Beans, Bandages and Bullets!!! 3 B’s you never go anywhere without.

I'm excited.

Good point on the spare, if your sunk in, could be a PITA....
they require pack in/pack out for this area, so yes I do have a toilet.

Also forgot to mention, yes we're going with friends with a Jeep, buddy system.
I also picked up a Jump-n-carry, just in case.


Thanks for the feedback guys, We're stoked. but I do need to go check my stock on Amo....
Working on the truck this weekend, looking at mounting the air pump and have a few lights to wire up.
will post some pics.

+1 - The above =

Second vehicle is the most important. High lift jack is almost useless on a Raptor. The only thing I would use a high lift jack for is under the bumper - Jack the truck up and push it over - WORKS FOR VERY TIGHT TURNS. IT WILL FCK THE STOCK BUMPER UP ON A RAPTOR. If you have a flat tire have something to put under your bottle neck or similar jack so it is stable and won't sink or shift and drop the vehicle. Gloves. Basic tool kit. A manual come along 6000Lbs is cheap and easy to transport. Snatch straps, 100' Static rope doesn't stretch for the come along and a snatch block / pulley. Jumper cables. A lot of other necessities already posted. Use you own judgment from what has already been posted.

Hey,anyone find a nice way to mount an Ar-15 in the Raptor....wanted to do the under seat back storage...but being a SCAB with little room..and a jack on one side and a sub-woofer on other makes it impossible...and dont want to be doing much drilling and ******** to mount the usual pick-up truck mounts ...
