    Yea. That creek is the output after it's ran thru a mile long, vertical tunnel and thru a pair of G.E. 6F turbines. The turbines provide extra power to the Oconee nuclear power station if they run low.

    It's really an interesting place.

    Would be fun to try, and I bet our trucks would fit. Not sure how Duke would feel about it, though.:rofl:

    Kind one of those "oh yeah, I definitely did it! Pictures? Oh no, we didn't take any of them."

    I didn't think the 265/75r16 would look so tiny.

    20180525_172727.jpg

    On the plus side, though.

    20180526_132139.jpg

    Driveway is very level, so pretty good representation of front vs rear lift.

    Drawback is the standard length 5100's I have in the rear are fully extended. Truck is borderline extremely bouncy and I have a pretty solid vibration in the rear on take off. Truck is going to be parked for now until I work some things out.

    I ordered a set of B110's from 4wheelparts on Friday as well as extended length brake lines. Hoping those will come in before end of the week because the Busted Knuckle ORV trip is June 1-3. Cutting it awfully close!

    It's pretty good where we were on the island. Not cramped, good level sites, and some decent shade -- it was hot as balls. We had three groups including us, and two were right on the water, so had nice spots for fishing, too. And the fish were biting, so even better!
