    example of the switchback. Not my pictures. Found on Google. Where the guy is standing in the dropoff down to the lake. c452adc4e7d665b185ac1cbe61bffadf.jpg bfe7b6d6ad880ea9f15dfd64adca1157.jpg 7dc286b35f61861456b3000b6571b9ce.jpg


    This is one that didn't make the hairpin switchback and went over the edge.

    There is no way I would make that hairpin with my truck in its current state. I have like 6 inches of clearance and a steering issue.:cool:

    On page 1 of this thread I posted directions to the campsite with pictures. Not sure how accurate the GPS co ordinance is but should be pretty close lol By Saturday morning we should be pretty easy to spot out with how many trucks are supposed to come.
