    Lol, no worries. I'm having my buddy bring my 4runner that has 4wd. It's bone stock but it has 4wd! :D wouldn't be able to take it on miller trail though. You need skids and sliders for that.

    i vote miller jeep trail to top o fraiser.... you dont need skids or sliders for it... i know twitchee in the 4 runner and snowsk8air are down for miller's


    We can always split off.... let the real men in their 4x4's go have fun while the 2wd crowd blasts the flat stuff because prerunner bra, yeah i said it.

    Plus i have seen all of the gorman basin like 100x over from dirtbiking, and for the most part of all the trails that would fit a truck down there, a bone stock base 4x4 could do no probs.

    Castaic lower lake is all LMB and trout.

    castaic upper lake it's LMB, SMB, trout, striper, and I think there might be some bluegill and maybe sunfish.

    the nice thing about lower lake is it's open 24/7...so we could do some night fishing if you're into that sort of thing.

    Also cat fish and carp, seen how low the lakes are recently?? It's crazy, islands are forming in the upper lake. I believe they just filled pyramid though.

    I haven't seen Castaic in a while. I've seen Cachuma and Piru recently and it's just sad. and I hear main island at Casitas is big enough to hold a whole housing tract now! :eek:

    yes, forgot about the cats and carp...LOVE me some catfish although I'm not sure I'd eat anything out of lower lake. :puke:
