    I'm certain at 23:20 is the "playground are" as we like to call it, or very close. The hill in front of them is where someone lost a fender to a root.

    Also, looks like some forestry work happened there. Probably just trimming the power line cut. Note that for easy firewood excursions

    At 28:33, should be directly across the creek from where we camped last year. We would head left at the intersection back to camp. Straight took us down some Jurassic Park shit and then onto pavement.

    That will likely not be something we take the group down for the meet. Unless people want to ride along

    The rest of it looked alright, just the creek bed was kinda nasty!

    That was the creek bed @mwc273 @beertimecontinuum and I walked up the first year of the "meat". You can take a trail up around it up the hill but it's got 1 kinda nasty spot in it as well. It's the little widow maker.

    Most the creek beds in RRG are this way. We're just very careful.
    Take the stockish folks up high and the rest of us in the creek?

    You don't really have to even go that way, you can if you want to but don't have to. It's to the left right before you get to the big widow maker.

    I want to try anything until I've maxed the truck or my own capabilities. So far, the truck is still out-driving me.

    If my calculations are correct, the impassable/passable 35 page rock we've been talking about should be around. 37.705033, -83.650828 make sure you put that into your GPS

    Ripped off all four mudflaps. Scratches all down both sides 6112’s up front on 3rd notch 5100’s in back with Toytech 1” block Skids & sliders from SOS Concepts I got rid of the 1” block and put on Wheelers 1 1/2” progressive AAL. SPC UCA. Be sure your standing on the drivers side when reading the instructions! I swapped sides so many times that I can swap UCA’s in 15 minutes. I put in the 3/4” spacer to eliminate the Taco Lean, and just got my 4th alignment. Traded the OEM rims for 17” Sport rims and a bora bora 1” spacer. I got my Firestone 285/70/17 MT2’s. Pelfreybilt gas tank skid and hi-lift jack should be here Friday. Looking at bumpers, but I think they will wait for next year. So far I’m happy with my build. I’ve done it all myself, leading to a lot of cussing and frustration, but it’s all mine.
    Nice wheelie!!!
