    I like this. 6 weekends before then. I'll either have a running slapped together buggy, or in desperate need of a break. I've got some trail info beyond Elvis also.

    From the FunTreks book below.

    I did it about 2 years ago in my 1st Gen Taco with ELocker/OME/33x10.5 KM2s/Sliders/Bumpers. Stayed in the wash the whole way taking the easy to medium options. Followed a Bone Stock Samurai, a monster Taco on 42s, and another 1st gen on 33s. Used the sliders and front bumper for sure.

    Rode along with Jon last year. First easy line was blocked off with boulders from the prior monsoon season. Jon and Josh caught their rear driveshafts on the first ledge. Sam and Connor kicked ass in the 4Runners, but they had a moderate disregard for body damage. Most took the bypass before the last squeeze or up and over obstinate.

    Who knows how it's changed in the last year. Also, any of the dirt bypasses that get out of the wash may not be fully kosher. If you're planning on taking most of those, please refrain.

    I was only on 33's last time, planning on going for a few more optional lines and hopefully stalling less haha

    Seeing that it's you (and I've seen you) this is way closer to the truth.

    LOL!! yeah I blew through a stock and a marlin, the LCE I haven't gotten to smell yet and I have definitely feathered the clutch for a good distance through rocks without it smelling at all.
    the lce is like double the price, however. LOL
