    I don't have a time agenda Saturday but I think a few people are driving home after the trail. I think the earlier the better for them. Probably 9 am? I'll update the op when we get a consensus.

    I'll be heading back to the bay for work that week, if I have time and can borrow a car for the weekend anyone willing to let me ride along? That is if a car make it to the camping spot?

    ...too much shit to list.
    Car won't make it to the camping spot, but you can park it at Lake Alpine and ride the rest of the way in with someone if they have space.

    My son's got first dibs on the shotgun spot, but I'm guessing he's gonna have enough homework that he won't be able to give up a weekend to go camping. So, it's likely you can ride with me. But I can't guarantee the spot.

    Thanks, but I'll be borrowing my mom's car, no way I would leave it somewhere. There wouldn't be anything left of me if something happened to it...

    Thanks for the offer! I'll most likely have to pass, though I might be able to talk my boss into using his truck to get to camp.

    I might be down to go, are dogs allowed? Lol my only concern is my truck has sliders and a steel plate bumper and that's all the armor I have. And I'm running open, open diffs.

    Hell yeah Rames, come on down!! Dogs are encouraged! No skids is your call, but I may have an ifs skid you can use for the trail. Gotta talk to a buddy since it's already earmarked for him but I don't think he'll be using it yet. Take a look at videos of the final obstacle (staircase) and see what you think. Maybe others who have run the trail can chime in...

    The trail changes and I don't think any of us have run it this year. I wouldn't run it without skids but I tend to be over armored

    Thanks @BudMan @Mademan925 normal terrain looks more than doable. Is there a bybass for staircase? Aside from armor I'm running open, open. I have a feeling there will be a lot of rubber left on the trail from my tires lol

    If you're getting new fenders, I don't see the problem tearing these ones up :devil:

    Cut your current fenders. write a letter to a police officer for the weekend. sign and date it and say you are driving to go get the fenders... the cop would be an asshole to give you a ticket if you had that
