This was a great trip! I think I pushed my truck harder and further than ever before! We got to the trail head, put the truck in 4Low and locked up the rearend. That is where i stayed for 2 and a half days! It took us 2.5 days to go 11 miles, 11 HARD MILES! My little Taco was the most stock veh out there, no exageration! Norris and I had the ONLY IFS trucks and everyone on the trail made a point to mention that. I'm pretty sure we were the only ones on 33's also. 35 and up was the norm! But we made it! Only damge was to the back of the cab. I dropped the rear of the truck off a ledge to fast and I think when I did it flexed the frame enough to knock the bed into the back of the cab, much like Keith's did when he got rearended. Same damage area! Other than that, sliders and skids took a massive beating! But the truck drove 5oo miles home, straight down the road with no shakes or vib! Not bad I think!

I'd love to lead a group up there some day! Lets get some rigs built and get on it! I think I better do some more mods to mine first too!
