    The girlfriend and I needed to get away for a few days so we drove up North a bit again to explore some spots we passed by the last time we went up; so here's a dump of pics of Pluto (Instagram: "SPVRTAN"). I also won the small lottery and fell into a cop's "quota week" trap and got "fix it" tickets for no front plate and subtle front row tint (he had someone pulled over and I was turning onto his road to head to camp then he flagged me down).

    The first one is Wild Willy's and the second is the Travertine hot spring (the exact one we're at is "hidden" or rather about 1/8th" of a mile away from the parking lot).

    Didn't use it at all up there since I stuck to mostly the easy stuff as it was a scenic getaway trip for us. You should be fine, too.

    Travertine is right off the road. Highly popular too. Be careful... some things can't be unseen... some folks consider it clothing optional...

    Sweet pics amigo! I love it up there. Love the truck too. Ever made it up to laurel lakes with the full size tundra? Just curios because it's a little hairy with the taco. I fish out at hot creek all the time so I know those dirt roads well :thumbsup:
