    You can drive on the south end too. Fort fisher area. the yearly/daily pass is WAY cheaper than the north end, plus not near as crowded. Only downfall is, it's a further drive out and alot of people get stuck because the sand/terrain is alot worse than the north end.

    It was nice meeting you to man! I liked your truck to..jealous of the rack and topper you got! The rest of that trail was pretty rough and steep as all get out with a giant mudhole at the end of it so it might have been good that you got called in with your clutch going out!!! Hopefully we can all do that again soon
