Where Have You Off-Roaded Today? 3rd Gen

I like to quote the experts.

 

Pucker Pass - Long Canyon, Utah

 

Yesterday, back up in cold water canyon. Took her out to stretch her legs after putting on the 34s. Still stuffs really well. Had a little contact with the pass side cab mount even though it's chopped pretty good. Only happened once, point down hill, turning right, on the brakes. Not even mad about it, but will remedy.

 

Yeah the pictographs are pretty cool as well as the vantage point overlook at the end of the trail. Here’s some pics... Couple other good spots out in that area. Definitely infested with Taco’s and van builds...

 

Nice pics! Want to try to get down there in the fall. Won’t be able to get there this spring and forget about going there in the summer thanks for sharing the pics.

 

Absolutely love Titus Canyon. My wife and I have been there plenty of times in our Subarus. Sad that I still haven't taken the Taco out there. Planning a small camping trip at the end of April for my wife's birthday, but still haven't settled on a spot. Considering DV, but she wants to take our trailer this time, and all the RV accessible cg's out there are kinda lackluster.

 

You can make it out to Sheeps Bridge in a stock truck. That's all I had. (2020 TRD-OR). Don't need to air down, although it would make the road a little less jarring. You will definitely be able to do it with no problems, but there are some fun spots you will find challenging.

 

Out prospecting on BLM lands near Joshua Tree...

 

Perfect. Def will go one this one soon. have done the day trip on FR300 at rim so i am sure this can be fun too

 

Southern Idaho desert.

 

The route from I17 via Bloody Basin to the bridge and back is 100% capable with a stock TRD Sport. But.... many miles of the trail are essentially like driving a cobblestone road. Being aired down will make it significantly more comfortable.

 

River Road, Big Bend. Crown Mountain of the Chisos Range dead ahead. So is Black Gap.

 

Remains of a residence at Mariscol Mine, Big Bend. The white colored ridge is tuff, volcanic ash.

 

Sand camped at Florence, OR a few weeks ago!

 

@money_badger I am going to be camping at coos bay in July and wondered if you can give me any insight on the quality of the trails in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area? Specifically the Coast Guard South OHV Trail, and Ten Mile OHV Trail. My 3rd Gen Tacoma TRDOR is stock except for some BAMF silders, a recovery point on the rear hitch. I have a pair of maxtrax, a 30' ARB snatch strap, and a shovel for recovery gear. I would be going with my brother in his 5th gen 4Runner TRDOR.

 

They are not challenging, we did them in stock Dodge 3500 a few years back! Just air down, keep your momentum up and try not to spin.
The trails you mentioned are basically access roads to the beach, and they are whoops the entire way.
Honestly, there are not a lot of "trails" that will fit trucks/SUV's at the Oregon Dunes - unless you want pinstripes!

Stick to the beach and the open dunes and you'll have a blast!

 

Awesome, and thanks for the heads up!

 

What kind of damage did you pick up? Trying to take some friends down with a similar setup to yours.

 

Better late that never (last week). Horse Pasture Road outside of Greenville, SC

 

Joshua tree
I just washed the truck before knowing I would get it dusty in a week. Almost got stuck in the sand.
