    Hello everyone!

    I'm new to the forum but I'll be at hidden falls adventure park from 7/13-7/15 if anyone is interested in coming down. I'll be doing mostly 2s and mild 3s. I have a stock TRD off road 4x4. I do have front oil pan skid but no other protection. A few recovery straps but no winch. I do have a bit of experience behind the wheel so I'm not a total noob hahaha If anyone is interested let me know. I've got one guy joining me Friday and would like to try the north pole trail. Looking forward meeting you all as time goes on and I start building up my taco!!!

    Jayson

    Park roads are the easiest trail, but do in some points present slight challenges. 2 and 3 diamond trails can turn in to 3 and 4 diamond trails, and 4 diamond trails can get pretty hairy for a mostly stock truck.

    Rain changes everything too! Make sure to take that into consideration when you go.

    @rocklobster2008 seems like ya got a good grasp on things, you'll get a good feel for the park when you get there. It's hard to judge what a challenge for someone you haven't met before. Typically I test the waters on a trail called greenhorn. @medjah did it in a stock TRDOR, it was even red too. We just had to get him into 4lo

    I turned some heads out at Jambo this year at what rock lobster could do but thanks for the advice. Going to a new park can be a little intimidating at times.

    I've been to Hidden Falls several times even within a week of each other and the trails are different every time. As long as you don't go into it too cocky you should be fine. Jambo was a hell of a lot of fun and I think a lot of people got out there and wheeled this year and didn't let the "I'm not built" thing stop them from enjoying themselves so it's good to see that you were one of them.
