    Yep, it never leaves. Camping on the beach sounds great but hot damn, sand gets EVERYWHERE.

    It's all good, same size tires, but the KO2's. Heavy tires, hurts my already bad gas mileage. Then again, I have a lead foot haha

    Speaking of muddy, Expo East was soooo sloppy. It was insane. We left a little early to beat everyone else (because we knew everyone would get stuck) and even we tested the limits of our tires. It was hard because I wanted to mash the skinny pedal down but I didn't so I wouldn't fling mud on everyone.

    It really was. It felt like we were driving on ice and couldn't get any traction. Even my meaty mud terrains fought for traction.

    I'd say Sleepy Creek, Flagpole Knob, Peters Mill Run, or maybe Green Ridge if you just feel like cruising around. Green Ridge and Flagpole would be great places to take a long lunch, maybe start a small fire to hang around.

    With temps falling should I increase the tire pressure on my tires? Im running the Cooper Discoverer AT/3 LTZ 275/16 tires. I have had them at 32-34 psi since I put them on the beginning of summer. Wondering if i should go up to like 36-38psi since tires will lose and gain pressure the cold.

    I'd just check em every so often and make sure they're where you want them. I wouldn't prematurely overfill them.

    Keep in mind that it is going to rain most of the week, with a chance for some snow on Thursday (especially at elevation). I think that Green Ridge is closed permanently now; their website says there is a new trail called St John's Rock that is west of Cumberland. My vote would be Peters Mill or Flagpole, but since I don't know shit about these trails, I will let you experienced folks make the command decision!
