    So this Sunday we decided to find a different location to explore. The Upper Glade Rd which is a continuation of the power lines we were at last Sunday.
    Last weekend we went up this road called Rover Cr FSR where we found a mud pit and this long power line access road. If you want to see last Sunday's trip go to my build or CLICK HERE

    So lets get to the photo's

    The white one is mine and the blue one is my friends 1991 3.0L. It has kept up like a champ since

    So right here was the highlight of the day! It got pretty hairy if i must say. We found a tight trail leading down towards a creek that lead across to the rest of the power line road.

    Made it across the creek so now we have to see if we can make it up this really steep hill. (Its way steeper than it looks!)

    IMG_1132_ec4cbc0f4a728e1c6fb00eb6742dbfc32546d898.jpg

    Had to take a couple runs at it. I would get half way and loose traction. Seemed kinda wet still

    We couldnt make it up after several tries each so we turned around and attempted to make our way back up.

    IMG_1139_ed8a29409824e41b5803100c148174c03b3487ec.jpg

    So we made it back out after several pushes through and up the snowy road. We decided to call it a day since we tested fate with that stressful run. All in all it was a great day, i can say our two Toyota's were pushed to their limits.

    Hope you like the pictures. I will have another episode next Sunday.
    Cheers:cool:
