Let's see your Tacos in scenic places!

Went to michigans upper peninsula! This is me and my girlfriend on a logging road yesterday!

 

Should have called me! I would have joined you!!(If youre in the Eastern UP)

 

Should’ve!

 

If you ever get up this way again, let me know! Not many people venture this far north!!

 

Somewhere above the abyss that is the Little Colorado:

 

Mom's house counts as scenic right??

 

Nice setup!

very Stormtrooper-ish....

 

I’m wishing my residence looked like that. Looks peaceful. We have a sequoia that we’ve raised since it was a couple inches tall and are trying to find a place to put him in the ground where he’ll make it. Not an easy task in this area. If we lived there we could put it in our own yard.
Oh yeah, nice truck

Driving across Kansas the other week, got some slightly better lightning shots.



But also had some near misses with lightning -- yikes. And the roads out there, although they look like gravel, turn out to be clay. Not the best place to be caught towing a trailer in the rain... wish I had a photo of it jackknifed in a ditch, but hey, I got out.


Same spot, different lens

$10 in quarters to blast several hundred pounds of wet clay off that trailer before it dried. Sheesh.

 

Those lightning shots are killer.

 

Now this next one was fun... met an old friend for a Colorado trip. He's had this long-bed 2nd-gen 4x4 for a while but has never really wheeled it. So I brought him a nice Tacoma World skid set from LA.



Thanks @el_turks and @silver taco -- these are your skids going on my buddy's truck!


With thanks to Mile Hi Jeep Club Patrol 14...

Wanted to make his first Colorado trail a memorable one, so I took him up Red Cone on a beautiful day. Not an easy trail for long wheelbase, open gears, and smaller tires... but we only needed a strap in a couple spots.








Damn, I just love that trail.

 

I may be making it a yearly trip as my cousin bought a lake house in mackinaw with his MLB money haha so I’m excited to go back but the ol girl did good getting up there. 2600 miles round trip.

 

I live about 10 mins south of Mackinac City and the bridge! I also work for the US Forest Service, was working on the Hiawatha NF for 4 years, so I know all the good roads! theres some great ones here near me as well!
