    No. The group stopped at the main clearing before the lake. I scouted ahead, broke thru 1 inch of ice fording last water crossing. Swallowed my 35's, so I advised the group to stop at clearing. There was some big bolders hiding in that water as well, hit something hard enough to put dent in slider.

    Gorgeous pics!

    Doesn't look like a stock friendly run? Anyone out there completely stock do this run? If so would love to hear how a stock vehicle did.

    That's the Eagle Lake run. Is that the plan, 'nando? Thought it was Uncle Tom's.

    I think a stock 4x4 rig with a good set of tires could likely make it, but sliders & skids would definitely give you some peace of mind. There's some sections where larger rocks would scrape your underbelly/rear diff if your not careful with line choice.

    I haven't cleaned my truck off yet to look for any damage, but i did hear a few "clinks" where i probably (hopefully) hit my skids or sliders on rocks.

    Everyone we were with at least had decent tires and a mild lift, so no one was completely stock.

    Thanks for scoping out the trail ahead of our group! You likely saved everyone from some major puckering :thumbsup:

    Thanks for your input...really appreciate it!

    I have sliders on order but there wont be done till February. I only have factory skids at this point but I do have RCI skids on my list for purchase when I can afford them. Will have to pick and choose my runs carefully until then.

    nope.... no chilling is aloud...... it has to be hectic and stressful, that is the point of camping ...everyone needs to go home pissed with each other and never want to do it again



    i only say this because i have to work and i don't want to be missing anything
