    I believe there is two or three obstacles where it does not bypass. The entrance (which a lifted subaru got through) and then this portion A558E0AF-3E48-47BD-A359-D5D938DFA521.jpg

    it did seem a bit more narly this year. Again at the time @Joe23 was on 32’s. I don’t have any pics from this year unfortunately

    One other spot depending how far you go. I always forget if it's past the outhouse or not. So given you can't go that far anymore it might not even be an issue. But it's just the deep long water crossing and rocks after

    Hey @Joe23 / @tacoma16 ,I'm considering going to this. I have a DCSB with 265/75r16, TRD skid and rock sliders. Waiting for my OK eXpedition aluminum transmission skid. Should be in right before that weekend hopefully.

    Do you have all steel skids? Engine, transmission and transfer case?
    Is there a significant risk with just aluminum skids?

    You'll be completely fine.

    OKx skids are awesome for aluminum, I personally run them and have hit them very hard in the past.

    Aluminum skids depending on thickness are perfectly fine. As long as you are covered you are good to go. We can always spot you over obstacles to ensure your tcase is clear.

    Believe @Joe23 was fully skidded with 265’s at the time when he did them.

    You'll be fine if you stick to main trail and aren't going for the bigger off shoots.

    Yep. Sliders and skids was all I had.


    I might be able to make it out to this. Put me down as a maybe. I'll be at the trailer. Just not sure if I'll be working building the deck. Kind of depends on weather.
