    Happy Birthday Pat! @pearing

    Weekend was a success.

    Trails were pretty empty. So empty that it took a while before I ran into @bkhlrTaco's :D

    We did the outer loop in the morning with some playtime by the deer blind at the edge of the property. It was a good thing we didn't do anything harder since the four wheeler we had with us started having issues with the fuel pump.

    Ended up towing it with one of the SxS's.

    Had lunch and then went back out with a convoy of RZR's.

    Took them straight to the Falls trail so they could get pictures out of the way.

    Then did the hill around the entrance to Casual Crawler. Tried getting over some big rocks and felt myself starting to turtle and backed off.

    Then took them over to Boulder Bridge and those things handled it with no effort. One of them was only in two wheel drive due to some issues so they took the bypass.

    I did not tackle it since I'm still not lifted and learned my lesson last year. @OldSchlPunk was too far away this time......:rofl:

    Would've like to show them Rock Crawler/Rock Valley the way you guys showed me last year but it was still closed.

    Finished the loop up until Sunday Drive. Took a look down the trail and decided it was way too muddy, even for the RZR's.


    Timed it perfectly and we exited the trails right around sunset.

    Nobody got stuck or broke anything too serious.

    It did rain at like 2am and two Tacoma's were present at some point in the day.....so it's an official TW event?

    My daughter had a blast and it was nice to give her some attention away from baby brother.

    We've felt bad since he needs us so much at this point and she has to be a little more independent. She did start missing him the second day so she at least likes him :thumbsup:

    Some pictures of the fun and proof that her boy cousins have finally grown on her. She kept saying she wanted to sit with her "boys"

    Just realized I posted in the wrong thread......so here's some sound financial advice.....buy a toy hauler/ trailer so you can have double the fun with a SxS

    Beautiful fish! They'll be eating size by next year. Was hoping I'd get some more lines out this fall, but I'm not sure that's gonna happen now. Might as well start prepping the ice fishing gear.

    Funny story.
    My buddy had a trout in his hands. While he was fiddling with his bag, looking for his knife, he fucking dropped it.....

    Hold on, I said. Don't move!
    The trout swam over by me and under some grass but I could see him.
    I slowly crouched down with my hand out and with my cat like reflexes one swift lunge and I pulled that fucker back out with my bare hands.

    WTF! I've never seen no shit like that, my buddy said.

    :rofl:

    Meh, you don't need to be lifted. You just need skid plates for Boulder bridge.:rofl:

    (side note: that wooden footbridge is looking rickety.
    Almost looks like someone has driven over it since early Aug.)

    Yeah, that bridge does not look so good. I wonder if somebody drove over it in something that wasn't supposed to drive over it.

    Pictures are so not telling the whole story. That looks so not a big deal... Until you are in it smacking skid plates and hung up.

    I made it through in the past before getting protection and lift, but I'm far happier playing there now.

    They never do....

    I remember seeing Tigerton photos when I 1st got to this thread..

    I said something on the lines of, "So you all just stand around in the woods and watch each other drive over a rock?"

    Bee seeing these guys around for the last few days. Seeing that they're hanging with a bunch of Chevys, I'm guessing they are new Silverados:
