I’ll be coming either really late Friday or early Saturday. Any idea where we will be camping? I’ll probably tow the 4runner out if you’ll be camping somewhere with easy access. If you plan on camping way out in the boonies, lll jusr drive.

No idea. I prefer camping out in the boonies though vs somewhere like mule canyon. I should have some coordinates by the time you're headed our way.

I'll be out there Saturday morning. Hopefully Friday night. Work just turned into a major shit storm but should be settled by Thursday. Like @AssBurns - I may end up towing my truck out there. We have similar problems.

@theesotericone I'll text you if I'm able to clear out early on Friday and meet up with you.

@Mike_taco4x4 Whats your plan?

I'll get you guys my inreach info. I pay for 40 messages month and it should be renewed before my next trip anyway. If we're out of cell range you can reach us on that.

Ouch...thats embarrassing.

It was. @85straight was having major power loss issues and couldn't get over a rock at the beginning of 2n06x. We could have pulled him over it, but we didn't know if he was gonna have the same issue the rest of the trail so we made the decision to turn around. Antonio and I went back and ran it a couple months later.

Yea I was fuuuuckin pissed. Turned out to be weak fuel pressure, exhaust leak, aaaand my fuckin hubs kept unlocking themselves. And of course it all went kerplunk on my way up there. Discovered the hub issue on a outing after that, then it all made sense. And I’ve yet to get my redemption...kinda like the reason why Danny has a hard on for Odessa

Odessa is the only one I haven't been back to. Shits forever stuck in the back of my mind.

Cool! So Danny, pick a spot I can get my truck and trailer into. It’ll be way more convenient than driving the BeerRunner out there. Especially if I break shit. Should be an easy enough trail to not break anything though.

Pretty sure that's pucker pass. Was just posted on the calico Facebook. Looks mellow.

says the guy who has never done it... Last time I spotted everyone through it. fuck me dead that sucked. Where's @Tetten at? Ready to do this with your wide currie axle? hahaha

I'm just talking conditions. That part has me more nervous than breaking something.

Sounds good. Just get out early enough to get to the diner by 5. I'll be there by then and we can grab some dinner then camp. I plan on being very hungover for Saturday. Not Motino hungover but close. lol


Thinking about just winching up the crawler line

Are you gonna join us? Is your rig trail ready?
