    I'll see what I can do. I saved a few GPS points on the Denali Highway that would probably be good trails in drier conditions. I see they list Coal Mine Road, I drove that last summer and it's easily passable for Tacoma size trucks as long as you don't mind rubbing bushes. That trail and the Jarvis Creek trail that splits off it both get super muddy in the Ober Creek bottom.

    Saw two nice trucks today in Anchorage. One was at Tudor and Otis and it was a silver 2nd gen with aftermarket front bumper and had a charcoal grill in the back haha. Other was just now on debarr and Boniface which was a red 3rd gen with bed rack and rtt.

    Is that any of you?

    Hey uys, getting a bunch of new stuff for my truck this week and I'm looking to get out and use my RTT for the first time this summer. Do you guys have any suggestions on camping spots that aren't at campgrounds? Like a drive up a trail to a spot? Not looking for anything too far away from Anchorage/Wasilla area. Just don't like the cess pools that campgrounds are, I wanna get off the beaten path just a bit. I'll be driving the Denali Highway and then going to McCarthy here in a few weeks and I know there will be tons of spots to just pull off and camp but just want something close for this weekend so I can get my fix.

    This is in front of Jim Lake in Palmer, take Maud road all the way to get there. Not much offroading but is a quick and easy spot. Mosquitos can be bad though.

    That's really pretty. Could you put like a drop pin on Google maps so I could find it easier?

    So there's a FB page, Toyota Tacoma enthusiasts. They are having a scavenger hunt for a raffle for a set of trd wheels. These are the picture requirements and I would like to make a new friend and take one picture that meets all the requirements.

    Screenshot_20170624-163621.jpg

    Edit: I say 1st gen since this is a Tacoma page, but if anyone has a vehicle that fits the build I would greatly appreciate your help. I just need you to meet me a Kendall Toyota for a picture!
