    Feeling froggy and looking at the beautiful weather the desert had this weekend, Eddie, his dad and I made the decision to head out to Devil's Slide and run it to the Plaster City plant. It was an awesome trip as I have never been before and also the weather was absolutely amazing at a high of 79 while we were out there. Here are a few picks from the day, Eddie took some more so maybe he will add a few also:

    I've got pretty much the same pics that Matt has from yesterday. The last half of the trail from where we picked up the railroad and followed it to the plant was really fun whoops that we were able to handle at speed. Good mix of everything overall. Well except mud. Richard can keep the mud. :p

    Nice day out there...

    You actually were at the Diablo Dropoff it would seem? Devil's Slide is a sand mesa against the hill north and east of the dry lake at Ocotillo Wells (on the way to Shell Reef).

    Devil's Slide 3-10:

    OP- I've been trying to get an answer for a while now, but with your soft top, do you think it's possible to have a bed tool box that sticks onto the side rails a little?

    In one of the Bestop picture threads someone did it. If your talking about one that rests on the bed sides I would say no....the supports that are clamped on the sides have to be a certain distance from each other and if the box pushes them further away you will never get the bestop zipped together.
