    I went to Sierras on Tuesday. If you count that as "local" :D

    I'll share...

    The camp is about 35 miles from Truckee, CA at Meadow Lake. Even though the last 16 miles are dirt, you see a lot of motor coaches, trailers and tons of gear.

    A lot of Sierra Trek is short wheelbase Jeep trails. They had an option for an overnight "SUV" run which I went on. Most of what we did, I wouldn't drive a Grand Cherokee on though :D

    There were four on the trip. Two Jeeps (lead and sweep), my Tacoma and an older Toyota P/U. We started at Alder Meadow. California school kids should recognize this as the spot the Donner Party lived for a time.

    We drove a lot of pretty dusty trails. Many of which are just accessible due to the winter's high snow load.

    Got myself into a tiny pickle getting turned around and smacked a small rock.

    Camp for the night was Richardson Lake. Riley spent his time productively.

    [​IMG]
    Camp did not suck.

    Morning.

    This trail would have been way better with a locker. It was a challenge for sure and a real sense of accomplishment.

    [​IMG]
    Had a hot chick on the run too.

    [​IMG]
    Amazing views everywhere.

    Truck toward the end of the trip.

    When it comes around next time, or even before then, it's an amazing place to wheel.

    First time we ever stained masonry. Our hearth was all old and white (technically red brick) with no definition on the floor (even when cleaned). Now it looks brand new!
