It's final resting place waiting for the RCMP to come pick it up.

No recovery planned for Sunday, but I'd really like some gps coordinates of the XJ to make sure it is where I think it is.

I think I can drive a car hauler trailer in pretty close to the jeep, but not legally  ;D
So I have to go in ahead of time and put up some flagging where I want to go in and to get proper approval from ASRD.

Otherwise it might be a pain in the butt and really hard on a mildly built TJ to get this axle shaftless jeep out the regular trail system.

So yeah, no recovery, but still some work to be done. Might do that Saturday if the open trail run is planning to be in that area.
