    Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about it, but not like I would be if I has the chance to run the Rubicon. But that, along with my SAS are effectively unreachable dreams for me for the time being. :pout:

    Yeah, but realistically, can we really take on stuff like that with our mildly built daily drivers? Guess we might find out. :cool:

    Well with all these drones I guess I have to come so I can get some shots with the rear bumper since I still don't have a single one after paint.

    I'm gonna take it sorta easy, I'd prefer not to break stuff and then have no back up car. Not to mention the 5 hour ride back...

    :confused: vvv

    Yer sending mixed messages here. ;)

    For the record, it's not that I don't think Gulches has any areas that are tough, or even maybe pretty much insane. It just doesn't look very big, in the same way that Hardrock isn't very big. You can pretty much see everything there is to see in a couple hours if you tried.

    I'm ok with that. Good wheeling and good company doesn't need a huge amount of land to happen.

    Mine too ;)

    Daniel is a nice trail but pales in comparison to difficult trails at Rausch Creek.

    Still, the view at the top is certainly worth the ride.
