    That sounds pretty interesting. Have you ever been to Mount Brewer?

    I should go back there. I think I went to the top in 2008 or 2009 or something.

    You know your vista's. Yeah broke off was awesome, kicked my ass going up but the views from the top we're ultra rewarding.

    A little, but as previously mentioned I suck more at fishing than wheeling. Use it for an excuse to day drink mostly. I caught one peice of lava, one pine cone and lost one of those flashy tackle thingies.

    FYI. The Tahoe National Forest is, as of today, under fire restriction. And Rattlesnake Road is closed to OHV.

    Yeah we do that.
    But then who really listens to a bunch of drunks? Most dont, or they drive right by the markers and never look.

    I went on a poker run at a motorcycle rally that pretty much forced you to find the markers and actually read them for answers. Turns out I knew the answers to a few but it was still fun to read the markers.

    In a way, it's our responsibility to learn about places we go. Yeah? Just makes it more interesting to me.

    Jim Branham of Cal4Wheel's Resource team is a huge wealth of knowledge about the Sierra. I've been on a couple of trips with him and I shit you not, it was amazing all the places he's been and can give great detail on. That's kinda what inspires me.

    Went from 3rd Gen Taco to 3GT4R to 2nd Gen Taco and finally a V8 4GT4R.
    Did he get caught up in the ditch that was filled with huge rocks? I noticed that on my way out someone tried to fill it in

    It was actually just after the rocks, where it was all loose dirt. We added some rocks to fill in the holes, and he was able to clear it.
    Looks like someone got stuck earlier on the upward hill, and just roasted their tires through the hillside.
