The spare tire on the XJ is on the roof. Since I've never been to the Cliffs I have no idea how the trails are. Soooo should I leave it in the trunk so I dont get hung up? Thanks

the mudd was pretty bad id say the creek was about a quarter of the way up my door when crossing from like trail 1 over to the other side of trail 1 (ill get you a guesstimate later)
i was with 3 other rigs
an old thrown together chevy with a v8 d60s and 36inch tires
2 zjs with 31 and 3 inch lift
and me
we had no clue where we were going but i guess we were on trail 1 the whole time and we didnt even make it half way. we crossed the creek only to turn back around cross it again go up trail 3 cross the creek again to the other side of 3 then we ran that till busstop and that was to the middle of my door just under my headlight
we met this guy in this little zuki that would float ontop of the mud and he was having a hell of a time
all in all it was a good day but i was really really really really mudy

Was he having a good time or bad time? Was it a Samurai or a Tracker/Sidekick?

we all were having a good time except one of the jeeps in our group ( dented rocker and taillight busted)
as for the zuki it was a sidekick with 31in super swampers, warn winch(didnt really look at it(he had to use it to get our big chevy out since the zuk was the only thing that could manuever into get it) crawler gears(or so he said) and these sliders that looked like if he took them off he'd be cutting his rig's weight in half
his plate ws 'mudzuki'
