Niiiice....I'd do the same fo sho

 

I'd like to thank all of you guys that went up for all the help pulling my truck and getting me through those hairy situations. I know i was really stressing on more than one occasion. Gus can you thank Ira the next time you see him. That guy was so much help and pretty much led the whole way.

I would have never guessed that about a month after meeting you guys I'd be putting myself and trucks fate in the hands of your trucks and tow ropes. Thanks again for everything and talk about a bonding experience.

 

X2 what Ray said, def a great group a guys and I had a great time. I think we all worked great together. You guys are gonna have to come play in my hood. LOL

 

i'm in... maybe a little shorter trail though.

 

lmao. I know right......my wife will only let me go to the store right now and I have to stay within a 5 mile radius of the house hahahaha.

 

this is all that i have time for tonight. its taking me a lot longer to get used to this mac book and photoshop than i expected.







more to come tomorrow and I'll go through the gopro footage and see what i can do with that.

 

X2 mos def

Yea if there was no teamwork we probably would have still been there lol. Would your hood be Bald Mtn?

Lmao

I'll let him know

Again, it was fun. If it wasn't for the challenges then it would have been just another drive. I know I kinda kept pushing to go ahead and we should have turned around at the first downed tree...and the 2nd tree....and maybe the 3rd tree lol but I had no shame in turning back this time, like Billy said, the mountain had our numbers that day.

SO CLOSE WE COULD HEAR THE CARS ON GENERALS HIGHWAY! LOL

Good seeing you guys again and good meeting Blake (scarab), his and Raymond's trucks made it farther than they should have haha. Sorry if I gave you whiplash Blake.

Honorable mention, my bro took the wheel popped his trail cherry!.......even though he got nervous and had the bubble guts haha. (he says it was the greasy breakfast).

 

Awesome pics Ray! You got the angles I couldn't, hell yea!

 

Actually yes I was would you like a signed copy? It has a center fold of me

 

WOW!!Just found this thread! Checkin in from Clovis. Bullard and Temperance..Great to see alot of trucks in this area!!I see a nice truck and usually ask the guy if he is on any forums, found a couple more Yota forums!haha Anyone like Bald Mtn? went up last spring for the first time and had a blast! and we didn't even make it to the top(got dark early and have no big lights out in front. Again, its great to see we have some Tacomas from here in the valley!! I will keep my eyes out for you guys now.

Welcome to the thread man.

Seen a dark red 2nd gen ext cab (I think) in town full tubular rear bumper, arb bumper, and 3 inch lift.

Gave each other a thumbs up but didnt get close enough in this traffic to let him know about the thread or TW but hopefully he seen the sticker when I got ahead of him.

Since there was a tree on the first trail we turned around and headed to the 2nd trail of the day....something we should have done later in the day lol


Trying to get the back tires to stick, surprised that it didn't wheelie over lol.












If you were there you would have heard Ray's truck screaming through this section but he made it all on his own.


Downed tree #2








Downed tree #3


Billy hit it once and it broke.




Here was the tricky part...turning the 2wd trucks around with about 12ft of trail width and deep snow.


Ass end up the mountain facing down


Finally made it out and stopped for air. 11:34pm

Group shot minus me lol I was to the right of Ray.

​

I had an awesome time guys. Thanks for allowing me to get us all stuck LMAO.
