    Drifter wedge camper, Dual battery, OBA, ARB locker, 4.56 gears
    When: 6/20-6/22 (Fri-Sun)
    We'll be running the trail on Saturday 9AM. Folks are welcome to come Friday or Saturday to camp. Then we'll be headed home Sunday.

    Where: Slick Rock trail, Stanislaus National Forrest
    Trailhead: 38° 28' 07.5" N 120° 00' 40.2" W
    [​IMG]
    We'll be running the trail from the North to South, then a fire road will spit us back on HWY 4. We'll set up camp right after the second marker from the top. In fact, here are the directions to the trailhead, verbatim from the Backroads book:

    [​IMG]

    And then just follow the trail a little, and you'll find us along the trail (NO FEES)
    [​IMG]

    Required: 4x4, decent AT tires, sliders
    Recommended: skids + aftermarket bumpers, locker, diff breather mod, recovery gear (winch, hi-lift), CB or FRS radio (I'll have both to communicate between the two)

    Yeah I was thinking about that trip too! But I'll be putting 2000+ miles on my truck for Moab so I don't think I can swing that expo trip. Sounds awesome though

    Go! This trip was going off your post :p

    Yes you will be fine with full skids and sliders. Just pick your lines carefully and you will be fine. I got MJ up the hard line open/open slick rock is a walk in the park as long as you have sliders.

    I can do a CT4WD Style video, but I need some volunteers.

    I need folks that are down to get interviewed, do soundbites, and/or redo obstacles.
