    I think there's going to be alot of peeps interested in this but we did do it in a drought.
    Those mud holes and puddles get alot deeper, guaranteed.

    I wish I got you 5 seconds earlier when it sounded like you were using your frame to hammer the rocks back into the earth core.

    That was right by the side of the Richy obstacle. You have no idea how close your rear diff came from hitting that middle rock coming up out of that water crossing....if you zoom in, you can see on my face holding the GMRS spotting you lol

    From now on, every time someone posts that the TRD Pro should have better tires I’m posting a picture of your truck.

    Kim was making that face for me alot so I didn't have to.
    Normally I just have a shit eating grin anyway.
    The worse it gets the bigger my smile:D
    I wanted to do some recovery...
    But not through that 1 mud hole!

    I learned more in the hour following Eammon than I did in the last two months on here, watching YouTube on off roading, etc.

    @BadDNA you gave me an awesome time, a great story, and so much knowledge. Thank you so much for such a fun trip.

    Pretty much every obstacle you hiked back to make sure us noobies got through safely. And all the while you were patient, friendly, and encouraging. It felt awesome getting through something and having you tell me I did a good job. Thank you so much for taking on the responsibilities you did this weekend

    Takes time and patience to wheel the right way.
    I know I make things look easy (the rig helps)
    But learning from people like Eammon is priceless.
    I learned most everything through the peeps that go to the off-road parks in PA but I've definitely learned alot from most everyone.
    We all have something to offer 1 way or another.

    I think my favorite part of the day was at the end when I was tailing @Mongoose watching him champ it through things we needed spotters for at the beginning of the day, really drove home how much at least I learned
