    I'd love to make it up soon. IDK about the "not for light at heart" trails, but I am definitely down to push the little truck. I think I'll need some armor (and tires) before I get crazy.

    I could always ride along on the serious stuff and just take the overlander trails in my truck. :D

    there is a better line once above the ledge. stay all the way left, above the dipseedoos. will be off camber, but not as bad as down low. this was also the run we did dickey for my first time. It was Jakes first trip here, he is from OH I believe. we went down dickey. did not know any better :anonymous:

    Shit your little truck would probably do better than my TL with dragging and HC issues. You'd be surprised at your clearance compared to the other trucks vertically it may be the same but that short WB makes you less likely to HC

    True, I think our approach and departure angles will be very similar though especially on stock bumpers and little tires. :pout:

    Whats wrong with going down the hills. I think they are just as much fun going down than up. Different challenges. I wouldn't mind running them down eventually just to change things up.

    i know how much you love to spot! i do want to try more there but may want to wait on some "real armor" not my cab mounted sliders and more that the aluminum ifs skid and small t-case skid.

    These guys are confidence builders. They'll point you in the right direction.

    Take the sliders off from what I saw that IFS skid did pretty good. With that diesel SWB and lockers you'll be able to crawl up most of this stuff. Remember I did Dicky with no armor except that super flimsy sheet metal thing toyota calls an IFS skid.
