I would love to join if I'm still here. I was planning an overlanding trip with my lady to go from Alaska to Oregon in June. In October I did the inverse to get up here. I'll keep you all posted if I can make it. An earlier trip would be awesome if we could plan that as well. Maybe in May?!

Great information, thank you! I'm planning a to run the west coast next year. Part 1 from Portland to Alaska & Part 2 Portland to Cabo San Lucas. First I have to go through a laundry list of mods on the 2006 Wrangler to be on the safe side.
