    Yeah I was reading up on the trail data in OF4WD. Says the North and South are stock friendly with 31s. Says the Lake Loop requires 2” with at least 33s.

    I did only break my bed because rock bouncer. Or in other words in retarded.

    At the end of the day. What ever trail we run as a group. If you want to turn back, no problem. Are goal isn’t to beat the shit out of our vehicles. If you want to fine. On the other hand if you need to drive your shit on Monday we get it and we are there to help. Whether that means turning around or taking the extra time to spot you.

    Eugene has done black Lake with 30s lol.

    All depends on how you wheel.
    Personally think the of4 rating is off black Lake loop is harder than South trail and South trail is rated harder

    So far we haven't been through much rough stuff that would break things. I snapped a driveshaft but that's my fault for deciding to try something and then not getting the climb right. For the most part the trails can be handled slow and there are by passes.

    We don’t mind. We usually pick the trail based on the group and time we have. For instance the entire south trail can take 3-5 hours with a small group but over 10 with a larger group.

    However the south trail has a lot of offshoots which people can take if they want a challenge. The others get a show lol.

    Except Eugene.
    He gets off on breaking shit and if you get to know him like we sadly have he never shuts the fuck up about he did something and you didn't.

    I find the best solution for this is just hug him.

    He's forever alone I think he just needs to feel love and this is how he cries for attention.
    I think he's been hurt and just needs to feel love again

    No issues
    If it's a big group some can fuck off to the harder stuff while others just stick to easier

    If you run black Lake in reverse it's good. Do some of South trail together then those that want to do black Lake can go while those that don't either go further on South trail or head back to camp whatever you fancy.

    I'll possibly just be coming to camp some times because I just want to go paddling on those lakes

    Most of us don't want to wreck shit.
    Until I get another daily I'll be going easy as I'm in the same boat as you I need my truck to get to work during the week

    You guys really are a great bunch! Excited to get out and just try my shit out and learn a lot.

    I added the tracks to my Gaia GPS app. Love it so much. I’ve mapped out a couple tracks by my buddy’s cottage in south river. Also love the OF4WD index because you can just download the tracks and they’re right there, all waypoints and everything!

    Topo canada is another good one that @Canadian Joe told some us about. Found it to be a little bit more user friendly

    Just downloaded that, I’ll check it out and maybe grab a few brews and make some tracks.
