    We should! Gorman itself is really just a network of fire roads, can be fun but nothing really technical in Gorman...it's more of a go-fast kind of OHV area but the rangers will stop you if you do go too fast lol.
    But Lockwood Canyon/Miller Jeep Trail is in the same area and would be really fun to do sometime this summer. I'd like to make a camping trip out of it too

    I'm late to the party here but I'm doing cleghorn tomorrow with some other nubs. If anyones interested its 0800 at the trail head.

    Depart by 830am. Look for a f'd up green range rover and a 18 tacoma off road with two subies pretending to wheel. :bananadead::bananadance:

    Who's white 3rd gen? Sounds/looks like a manual trans?

    Did you make it up that line? Looks like a good time.

    That's @downhillbik3r ...he's got a 4banger with 5spd, really nice LT kit up front.

    Attempted it a few times but there's a couple good shelves the front tires couldn't get over even with his locked rear, but the main difficulty with Pilot Rock terrain is the steep hills and loose sand. The shelves up the top of that hill just made it worse.

    Maybe could have gotten up with a few more trys and little more momentum, the walls on either side though we're concerning with how wide his truck is with the LT. Didnt want to see him swing or slide into one of the walls.

    That's how I smashed/destroyed my front fender earlier this year lol. Granted that was 100% driver error on my part, misjudged a deep recently developed rut on a trail I've done 100x without issue.

    Yeah I am the white 3rd gen. That shit is alot steeper and looser than it looks. I tried twice. I maybe could have made it up if I really had to, but it wasnt worth it this trip.

    @bprout thanks for the video
