    Oh nice. Next sat will be lit. Trying to think of a good area that has some single track or an area that gets less "trampled".
    I do love the trails around the mud caves and down to diablo. It's like your in a deserted under water scene. But I've often wanted to check out the area below Fonts point. Tons of trails there. Just not sure if theres good foliage.

    No, but there are plenty of off camber tight turns that will make you pucker if you're not used to it, like me. Take them as wide as you can and just watch your inside. Long beds should fit, but will a bit tighter.

    Define technical? If you have decent tires (31" A/T is enough) and preferably 4WD you'll be fine.

    No rock crawling on that trail unless you leave the trail and get into trouble. Even then, its more really hard pack dirt than bare rock. I did just fine in my stock 265/65/17 Firestone Destinations.

    Sorry, I don't know the area very well and @computeruser6 was in the lead. That said, I do remember seeing signs for Pumpkin Patch Trail a several times on our way there.

    If you take Tule wash to pumpkin patch from pole line almost any vehicle can make it. I just drove lost lizard trail from shell reef on Sunday in my 2wd and it was a easy enough but with 35s I had no clearance issues. Couple of places Prolly need 31s or more.

    Can you access Diablo drop off from Fish Creek? I've heard that the connector road is one way.

    Yes you can...They dont like people going the opposite way on it cause it causes it to be rutted, but it is doable :spy:

    Did you just reference the Wikipedia of off road trails?
