    You will be fine,
    Not to much water latley so no giant puddles and anything to rocky you can easily bypass.
    You will probably get your fair share of pin striping.
    I've taken mine stock out there and I bent my skid plate a little, but I was on something I shouldn't have been on:rofl:

    Looks like I’ll be camping next weekend. Had to weigh camping vs wheeling. And I’m dying to use my new RTT. I’ll be there next time gang.

    Thinking about this, mostly stock access cab. Are these trails very rocky? Any photos of the trails? Thanks

    I don't have any photos handy, but there's nothing a stock Tacoma can't handle about these trails that doesn't have a bypass.

    They are very easy. 100% stock friendly. You may get some pinstriping depending on the route you take like the one to right at the top of the old ledge climb.

    Is airing down suggested for this trail? My little eBay compressor might have crapped so I might not have a way to air back up unless there's a gas station close by.

    I will have a compressor (first time trying it out!). but i might be breaking off from the group a little early (depending on time). I'm sure others will have a way of airing back up tho.

    Makes it more comfy. If you're not doing the little Rock climb then not really

    I've done it fully aired up, it's more comfortable aired down. I'm sure we can hook you up with a compressor to air up afterward, I've got one you're welcome to use too.

    To those worried about being stock, mine made it through there without any issues; stock trd or when it had bald tires.

    Take your time; if your not comfortable have someone spot you, and you will be perfectly fine.

    Water crossings can get deep but it’s been dry lately. My biggest concern on a stock truck would be water into the diff breather, if you haven’t already done the diff breather mod. But again, it’s been dry so I wouldn’t anticipate water being too deep.

    :eek: This might take the prize for the longest trip to ride these trails. I hope they are enough fun to justify the trip and hotel for you. :fingerscrossed:
