    ...too much shit to list.
    Yeah but at what point do we ask the question if it makes sense? 5 gallons of water to produce a single walnut to grow in a desert? Capitalism at its best!

    I'm just bitter Tahoe got millions of gallons drained in August last year. It did not even come close to recovering with the limited snowpack and rain. But I digress. We'll have a stream to cross.

    How about cotton in the southern San Jaoquin Valley?!? One of the most water intensive crops where it rains 5" a year.

    I'm new to all of this and would like to join in on the fun, would my 07 Tacoma Prerunner with 3" lift and locking rear diff make it through the trail?

    If I can get someone to cover my on-call rotation that weekend, I'm in. I'm definitely a n00b to all of this and would be there with my stock 2014 DCSB off-road (but might have a 3" lift by then). Sounds like a fun time.

    I should know if I can make it early next month.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    You can make it to camp but you cant wheel the trail with a Pre Runner you will have to ride with someone else for the wheeling.




    Also Sliders are highly recommended on this trail you will come very close to your rockers without them trust me.

    I'm hoping to have sliders on before I go and I will just take the bypasses, no big deal. This is my first time going on a trip with a form so should be fun ether way.
