Sunday Sep 23 - Pilot Rock Trail. Meet at Cajon Junction 9:00 am. Who’s in?

Wish we would have gotten some pics of @8701yota 's recovery but we were too in the zone trying to figure out how to get him unstuck without tipping...seriously at one point a strong gust of wind would have put him over lol. Got real sketchy there for a minute but glad everyone made it out in one piece!

 

So bummed I missed this

 

Just like I promised...I hardly took any photos. Only grabbed a few of the gatekeeper obstacle to the "X" portion of the trail.

@quetzal came pretty close to being our first tipping victim lol, the photo doesn't really portray how steep/off camper and rocky this section is.

 

Here's a few pics:



I have a couple of videos of the gatekeeper but need to upload those before I can post them here.

 

Had a blast also. thanks for organizing this, and thanks to @eon_blue and @schecter517 for convincing me to skip Azusa Canyon and do this instead. It was in fact way better.

No worries, we'll just have to go again.

On another note, my wife said, verbatim: "you SHOULD get locker. Just don't tell me how much it costs." So I'll just add in some armor along with it

 

damn permission from the wife is the ultimate green light!!

Me on the other hand, I got my new tires and a few other expensive mods in the past couple of months knowing that I'm getting married soon, haha. Before I have to get permission

Definitely down to do this trail again, if you get a locker you should join us on the X portion in the wintertime when the trail is cooler and even more enjoyable.

Next run though we should hit up Big Bear, or maybe head up to Rowher/Drinkwater Flats. We're practically down the street from one another, my fiance comes with me most times too

 

Definitely going to keep building up. I want to be able to do gnarlier trails.

Yea definitely down to hit up those places. My wife enjoys coming along, and she'd probably be happy to have another girl along.

 

My wife got a couple of pics. Although those pictures dont do the tipping justice lol. Thank you for all the help again!

 

Lets do it again soon!

 

Next time I get out there I’m going to try to get my wife to come along for the ride. I think she’d enjoy it too.

 

I really want to make it to Santiago Peak. Maybe we can plan that in the next couple months.

 

Good run today fella thanks for having me along

 

Some video of @quetzal and (I think) @8701yota hitting the Gatekeeper!

 

Post them up!

 

Kind of hard to tell from this picture but at one point the truck tilted a little and came close to flopping on its side

 

Also have gopro footage. I'll try to upload that tomorrow

 

Anyone want to go up this saturday?

 

Gosh damn! Great pics. I love seeing all these 1st gens. Makes me wanna trade in our family Tacoma prerunner for a 4runner (for the wife) and get myself and luttll 1st Gen 4x4
