    Would love to but I can't make it either. Have to see a retinologist the morning of the 22nd.

    No problem. Thanks for looking out. I will probably do some of the NMBDR southwest of the Abiquiu Reservoir just to see what I can get into.

    I'm taking leave from work from 10Nov-18Nov with my only commitment for the 12th (Veteran's Day). Anyone up for an adventure?

    Maybe we can find some white stuff and I can get another snowman under my belt before Christmas!

    There be a wee bit of white stuff up on Sandia peak. Did a quick run up the Placitas road.

    IMG_0231.jpg
    Driving up, came across an Alpha Romeo going down the mountain. I wondered who the hell would bring an Alpha Romeo on to the Placitas road. Stopped for lunch. The car came by, now heading UP the mountain. It stopped, window was rolled down and I realized it was my brand new Captain. Might be a fun Monday.

    IMG_0230.jpgSnow on the Santa Fe Mountains. Stopped for lunch with this beautiful landscape to contemplate on.

    IMG_0228.jpgLast time I was at this bend in the road I was with Scott (SGT Taco) in 2 feet of snow digging out a deaf dude's Tacoma nosed into the inside of the turn. Good times!

    As always, gotta get a Pano in there. ABQ in all its existence.

    It looks like there will be an adventure on Saturday. At least myself and Tom are on board. Possibly a second tour of the Mt. Withington area (see link below), with a crack at running North Baldy. N. Baldy is not for stock rigs, so basic upgrades would be required (lift and decent tires). We are working on some other ideas as well.

    Any takers?

    Understandable, James. Family/baby stuff is definitely more important. I think I forgot to congratulate you the other day on #2 on the way, so CONGRATS.

    We'll have to get started early AM to ensure we have enough daylight.

    You definitely need to put that thing through it's paces. We'll make it happen sometime.

    I figured that would be the case. I'm a M-F man now, so going forward weekdays off will be few and far between with the exception of holidays and vacation time.

    Looks like it's just you and I amigo. I've got a route planned that will put a lot of dirt under the tires. Let's go have some fun.

    Hey, Tors. You're welcome to come along. I thought I recognized your username, but with only 1 post I wasn't sure. Then I realized it was from t4r.org. Would you be bringing your 3rd gen or the 4th?

    Definitely 3rd gen. Still waiting on suspension parts for the 4th gen before it hits the trails.

    Would love to take the new t4r out (4wd finally :yay:) but only have my stock road tires on it and no lift so not going to risk it. Have fun!
