    Went camping and exploring this weekend around Mono Lake.
    Had some tire issues.

    Goodyear vs. Sage Brush

    Must had been some heavy duty sage brush for that nasty of a cut. That's an expensive tire too, I had those on my 1st generation. I guess Kevlar is not bullet proof.

    That's not the Kevlar one. Just a regular MT/R

    Yup those are the old MTR not the Kevlar.

    I was down to 20 psi. Looking back I should have kept them at 30 but we got into some sharp rocks as well.

    I will get a trip report up soon.

    Of course, it was a anchor after all.

    I had to use the truck too.
