    #wifey and I are looking for a solid (and nearby) place to set up camp. Still haven't used the RTT, and just bought a heater. I'm obviously still on the fence about mall crawling away from the malls...

    You will be fine. I have taken stock tacomas, stock FJC and my 80 before it was built all the way to the lake, no issues. Just go slow, pick good lines and no issues. Don't know why this trail gets rated so hard when it's a stock friendly trail.

    Snow gives it an added element of difficulty but unless it's deep snow like last year, no issues. I don't see major snow accumulation for this weekend.
