    77 square miles surrounded by reality.
    Vehicle:
    '15 Black DCLB SR5
    Tires, Softopper, fully armored, winch, many pinstripes.
    A couple bucks each at most. It depends on size. Most of those oval ones are 4.5” x 2.7”
    The nice thing is that I can custom die cut any shape and size, in quantities as low as one.

    I don't know where Point Detour is. The group I'm meeting is going up to Bayfield on Thursday and starting the drive south on Friday. I am driving up Friday and meeting them at our campsite near the Jump River. And then we're proceeding south together from there. I may make it as far as Hatfield before I need to stop for some musky fishing lol.

    Point detour compound is the north end of the trail. It's on Lake Superior. Let me know how that section is.

    I've camped near the Jump river a lot when I was younger. Medford area, Mondeaux Flowage. Group trips at Picnic Point and lots of exploring. I love that area!

    I like the littler ones, personally. But like I mentioned, I'd really like a more official Tacoma badge for Nat'l Parks etc. like Jeep has.

    do you have any more 'approximate' timetable at the other locations along that route?
    i am working on setting up an eval at a shop in New liberty IA that shellshock alerted me to recently, its like the ONLY shop in the midwest that might know something about the old taco ills

    New Liberty is about 85 miles from Potosi, so depends if the guy can check it out that Friday afternoon or early evening and i can haul it back on I-80 after

    Lansing is about 370 miles away for me

    lol.
    Have no idea. Depending on how many go it may take longer. I only did it once. Plus any stops. Not sure how long everyone will stay at Potosi. I’ll have my wife with so I probably won’t stay more than a hour or 2 at the bar/eat lunch/museum .

    Hey, I'm horrible with names so help me out here. Who is the Racine guy I met today in the CNH parking lot? Drives a white 2nd Gen with soft topper and SCS F5 wheels?

    PFFFT! yeah, sure. :rolleyes:

    You're welcome to come hang out. I might have a long drive afterward, so I'm not going to be drinking much. Potosi Brewery is a cool spot if you haven't been there.

    They stopped making Potosi Light and that's the last time I went, but yeah it's a really cool brewery....just not fond of their beers.

    Born and raised in Dbq and I had no idea about the trail you guys have been/are going to run. Very cool!

    And yeah, getting into a drink off with WI folk is a bad idea. I got cocky last Jan up in Eagle River snowmobiling and got taught a lesson!

    Lol!

    I like the Cave Ale. I still haven't checked out the full museum, so I'm looking forward to checking that out.

    The T.W.A.T is an easy, scenic drive through Wisconsin and Iowa. You're welcome to join us!

    I used to drink a lot of beer when I was trying to be a rock star. Since quitting the band, I have become a lightweight, though. :oops:

    There was quite a difference from southern Wisconsin to Eau Claire. I think it's going to be pretty colorful for us.
