    Leg one start is in Clark Wy.

    Total trip I think will be about 30-40 miles offroad. Departure will be around Cooke city depending on how you end the leg

    Leg two is in Lander Wy

    Offroad is about 20-30 miles I think

    Ending in lander

    Then what do full size trucks have a turning radius equivalent of? Ours is actually pretty amazing compared to even the F150's and 1500's. haha

    Absolutely.

    There is no way a full size pick up could comfortably navigate the heart of those switchbacks.

    IMO

    Lisa would HATE lander trails. Trust me.

    You'll enjoy the challenge.

    You also have to remember Jon did it on 35s..and had NO problems. My undercarriage got beat up pretty dang good.

    Lol I can't wait to see if Morrison or blackbear is worse.

    Hopefully me too..

    He said the only reason your undercarriage and diff got beat up is because you took horrible lines.



    If I see Jon before the trip he might be giving me his belly pan. Should help out a bunch.

    If we're both going I'll definitely caravan.

    Is Jace going on leg 2? If so he could probably caravan with us too.
