    So bummed I missed this. Irish/German wedding last night with a open bar.
    Irish car bomb drinks all night.
    Jameson and Baileys dropped in a pint of ice cold Guinness. Then the beers started flowing. I can still taste the oatmeal stout and shots! Lonnng night.

    Can’t wait to see more pics and videos. Hope no one broke anything.

    I wasn’t there to be “bad decision guy!”

    We had one close call, but it ended up being no big deal. Everyone really pitched in and made the day easy and fun!

    I couldn't have picked a better group of random strangers from the internet to spend a weekend with!

    I’m trying to picture how high that would have been on my truck.
    might need to add them to YouTube and just put the links on here.

    Link to a full Google Album. It's mostly my truck, but there's some shots of everyone else. My copilot took a few trails as pilot. We're not moving when the beer photo was taken, in case any of you are cops. :D

    Seriously, this was the most fun I've had in a long time! So much fun meeting new people and seeing what these trucks are capable of. And thank you Dennis for stepping up and showing us how to use a recovery tool safely and efficiently. I really hope we all can do this again! Thank you for everyone that worked to make this a fun experience. It was a weekend to remember!

    Great job by all the guys spotting! Looks like everyone made it without body damage, crushed exhaust, and tires!

    Outstanding job!
    I definitely need to add recovery points on my truck. I guess I know what I’ll be purchasing this winter.

    Hell of a job. All the guys scouting trails in advance to watching out on the trails.
    The Wisconsin Tacoma (and T4R’s) community is one hell of a group.

    Can’t wait to see ya guys on another outing and hear more stories of the LEGENDARY ASSMAN!

    This! James did his homework, and the other more experienced drivers looked ahead to make sure we were all safe and that is what made this a good time for an inexperienced driver like myself.

    Agreed! Thanks to @Peeing on Jeeps , @deekyn , @Thatbassguy , and @ajmogen for calling the shots in some tricky areas. I have a lot more confidence in my truck and my driving as a result of your leadership!

    Thanks so much to @Thatbassguy for organizing! Thanks to @ajmogen @Thatbassguy @deekyn and anyone else that scouted! It was critically helpful. Can't wait till the next event!

    Also, this was a really big deal for my non TW buddy, Skot. This has been the kind of fun he has been looking for to stretch the legs of his truck.

    I couldn't have hoped for a better turnout! I definitely had a lot of help with the planning!

    I want to thank @ajmogen for scouting with me, and @deekyn for scouting as well.

    I seriously appreciate everyone who came. Everyone contributed something.

    @theJCKRBBT , thank you for sharing all of the interesting beers.

    @Peeing on Jeeps , thank you for giving us the confidence to play in the puddles, and for helping out with the recovery situation.

    @MKEMICA , thank you for keeping your cool and having faith in the spotters.

    @takomajake , thank you for showing us that a 4 banger can climb. And let Skot know that he's welcome at any of my future gatherings.

    @Cipher94 , thank you for being eager to learn, and for sharing your beer.

    @WiscoPat , thank you for helping with spotting, and the delicious Scotch.

    @GQ7227 , thank you for driving all the way from Nebraska to join the party. It was awesome seeing a first gen hang with all of the newer trucks!

    @ajmogen , thank you for the help scouting and spotting!

    @deekyn , thank you for helping with the route, and for convincing us to push our trucks a little down that last hill. @ajmogen helped with that as well.

    I also appreciate everyone who gave me their information for campsite reservations.

    You guys all rock!
