209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

Got my bedrack installed and the SAWs put on
Definitely need #550 springs the 650s are way to heavy



@Sharkfrog did your Ubolts show up yet

 

Nope. There is some sort of delay with the manufacturer of the flip plates. They were hoping to be able to ship them by the middle of next week.

I did go through and tighten/torque everything I could think of that we touched.

 

I gotta spare "G" chipped key off Amazon, anyone taken these to a local (Manteca) locksmith or whatever to have them cut and programmed? Ive read mixed things on the programming so I figured i'd see if you guys have done this. (NOT looking to buy the kit and do it myself)

 

I’ve never done this.

 

A 2 hour delay in Houston and I have to pay for my own beer

 

You and I are about the same height. How is it driving a standard cab? Would it be unbearable on a long trip?

 

Not too bad and I plan on doing some long trips, it’s just tough for the storage side of things

 

Much needed camping trip this past weekend.

 

I have been so itchin to get up to the hills!

 

I know where that is

We’re going to fill the lake this year!

How it looked earlier this year:

 

I knew you would! Would have loved to have access to the road to the left. Instead we ended up clearing the road of downed trees for our second nights spot. Was a good time! Planning on bringing the kayaks next time

 

Where is this for us not in the know?

 

Yeah that’s our access road.

Looks like you found one of the other older access roads. They get you close but usually don’t make it all the way to the lake.

Also the picture with the tent wasn’t below the dam? Looks like the area near where I park to check on the stream gauge.

How the lake fishing? I wonder how draining the lake effected them.

I want to take my kids camping out there once it gets a little warmer at night. Maybe get my dad to bring his boat.

The pic looking at the dam looks so much like Cherry lake that it took me a bit to realize it wasnt.

 

No you had it right.

 

I was about to say, that sure doesn't look like Hetch Hetchy.

 

Dammit this is why we keep things secret




It’s pretty cool area though if you get a chance to go

 

Ive noticed that around here lol

but hey, one more guy who usually packs out more than he packs in is always good, right?

TBH, with the internet nothing is sacred anymore. I've found most of my spots over the past few years putting hours into google earth.

I happen to be in the know about cherry, just havnt actually gone up there yet lol

 

I’m sure you’re cool. You’re at least a TW member.

It’s all the lurkers on TW *who aren’t members

Maybe a TW meetup at a lake to be unnamed

 

I’ve noticed the huge amount of non-member viewers. Then I thought, I used to be one of them! Lots of googling has brought me here time and time again. So I can only imagine the muggles out there, reading these words. Poachin spots, leaving trash, burning shit, killin muh fish *begins to rant and smash*


TW meetup sounds fun, I’ve been planning lots of summer trips lately. Told my boss to shove his 6 day work weeks where the sun don’t shine. So I’ve got my weekends back lol

All my trips currently are planned for Tahoe National Forest and one for El Dorado.

Edit/Add: I’ve definitely looked up that area, on satalite anyways. It’s half the distance from me as my usual stomping grounds. Will have to get an exploratory trip in soon. Hope I don’t come across no locked gates lol
