    trails will vary as there are many options to choose from...we'll wait and see who is interested and make decisions based on the trucks and driver skills that will be there..

    i'm sure we'll have a couple options for each day too from stocker to modified to extreme if any trailer rigs show up

    As promised here are some pics from Moab. I must say I love the new Boztec skid it was nice to have.
    I didn’t get to do as many trails in the truck as I would have liked but I did give it a good workout on Kane Creek and Steel Bender. The previous day we did Fins N’ Things, Hells Revenge, Poison Spider Mesa and part of Golden Spike on some Polaris RZR’s. Those were a ton of fun.

    still one of my favorite trails

    Kane’s Creek was a blast. The pinch near the beginning was by far the most tricky part (pics never do it justice), without some sliders and winch I don’t see how you could get a 2nd gen Tacoma through it without some serious body damage. It’s tricky because the rock on the drivers side wants to throw the passenger side into another nasty rock. I escaped with with just hitting the side of my slider and scuffing the rear bumper (guess I will just need to upgrade J). I have a few more pics, I’ll put them up on the Utah BS thread or start a new thread later.
    The whole time I was on Kane’s Creek I kept thinking about the pics you and Jas took from the last TW Moab trip.

    Sounds like something I will be planning on!!!

    We should definitely get a TW Nation wide Moab trip. Anyone from anywhere that is interested in going should be welcome. It will be cool to see what states show up. Might be the biggest collection of different state tacomas ever...




    And JasoTaco-

    Nice pics!!!

    Sounds good. I go out there at 3 times at least a year with FJ friends from all over.

    Maybe I will see if any of them would be interested. If the group is big then you can get different groups doing different trails each day. Otherwise it takes forever.

    Great pics.
    Looks like we did the job.

    Did you get to do Hells Gate?

    Thanks! You did a good job. I love that skid, one less thing to worry about on the trail.

    I did make it to Hells Gate on the RZR but didn't try it. I would have felt more comfortable trying it with something with a longer wheel base. There is that one bump halfway up that I just wasn’t feeling.

    Here are some of my Moab Pics.
