    Looks like you've had lots of fun in your truck! Definatly helping to prove prerunners can still have a hell of a lot of fun! What happened to the American flag mounted on your truck,I need more flag buddies :oldglory:. Where was that dirt lot down in Long Beach, I always want to go around after it rains but there aren't any dirt lots in Huntington soo it'd be awesome to use that LB spot. Also gawdd my screw up hahaha that still scares me, also chewed up my back left tire! Just got a new pair today, looks funny now :cool:

    Thanks man! The flag pole I had wasn't strong enough and bent when I went on the freeway :rofl:That dirt lot was a construction site that had a big hole in the middle. They've filled it with cement since then so I need a new dirt lot to play in.

    Bee Canyon - December 2015

    Had a great 2nd trip to Bee Canyon. I got some trail experience (both driving in the rain and in recovery), made a new friend, and proved to some 909 douche bag bro that "that thing" (my 2wd beast of a Tacoma) is just as capable as his light barred out Silverado.

    image.jpg
    Right off the bat we have some decent mud puddles...so you know it's going to be a good day.

    image.jpg

    This is why you need to go slow when approaching a blind turn at the top of a hill...
    image.jpg

    image.jpg
    ...This did not work :rofl:
    image.jpg

    image.jpg
    So we started to dig.

    image.jpg

    image.jpg
    Then our savior arrived in his bone stock Jeep Commander with wife and 4 kids.

    image.jpg
    An hour and a half later he walked out of the hole.

    image.jpg
    Hard to capture the enormity of this hole...but my buddy is about 6'3 and the level ground is at about his waist.

    image.jpg
    Quick break...

    image.jpg
    ...then back on the trail.
    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg
    Zero visibility off the side of the cliff.

    image.jpg
    This guy in the Commander was an animal.

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg
    The Fleet

    The water crossing was deeper this time around.
    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    Time for another break.
    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    image.jpg

    This little waterfall wasn't here last time.
    image.jpg

    There was a little bit of snow and ice...
    image.jpg

    All in all, it was a great trip and Bee Canyon continues to be my favorite trail so far.
