2nd Annual Yotatech Squaw Ridge Trip 8/26-28/11
Well, The 2nd Yotatech Squaw Ridge Trip has passed ( my 1st ) and what can I say other than "Wow." The turn out was unbelieveable! People from all over Northern California showed up and even a member from Utah! (Kudo's to you 87wheels ) I believe the count at the beginning of the trip was 16 trucks, and by the end we were at about 13. All in all, It was a great experience, and an amazing trip for everybody. Everyone had a great attitude and really made the trip.
I'd like to thank: dark_fairytales shaggytrash snowhite highonpottery stockwell45 space-junk MK_taco98 RMA NcalDyer 87wheels outlawmike Chrismcdowel25 redwolf3 twistedyota 87-runner reynoso For making this trip as fun as possible! Great trip everybody. Also, special thanks to Shaggytrash for running up and down that damn mountain the whole weekend. props to you man. You will make this memorable for days to come. Anyways, enough of my blabbering, Here's some pictures!

We did our best of trying to hop out of the vehicles, snap what we could and get back in. If there aren't any single pictures of your rig, i guarantee Shaggytrash got some. As far as carnage goes? I was told that this trip was much harder than last year. I would say that the WORST that happened was either RMA's gas tank dent or Twistedyota's shredded tire. All of our trucks were damaged in one way or another, whether it be hitting the front/rear diff, crossmembers, or even smacking the exhaust tip ( myself ) all in all, everyone was a great sport and handled each course and bit of carnage with a great attitude! |
Videos:
Videos will be posted up shortly. Shaggytrash is staying the week with his family and his editing time will also take time. Until then, I'll upload mine when I get to editing the profanity and commentary out of it.
This is the only video that hasn't required editing. Its just the overview of the camp on saturday morning while we were waiting for Highonpottery and Redwolf http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68ccPvDiMTg |
this trip was awesome!! thanks for making it a great weekend, guys...
ill have some pics and maybe some vid up soon... thanks, mike for the link... pics are great! |
I noticed some of my pics have dirt spots on them if you want to save that pic let me know and ill remove them
|
Thanks for getting pictures up so quick. It's great to see all the rigs again from safely behind my laptop.
Hope everyone made it home safe and sound! |
So much fun, cant wait to do this again!
|
Wow, great pics, Man! Looks like you had a great time! Hey, .... that Red 4Runner on the end, 4th pic down,..... Is that aftermarket, kinda smokey Red/darker red? I've never seen that color, EVER... unless it's just the lighting of the pics.
Anyway, awesome, wish I could have been there! |

I'm going to do some maintenance on my truck then try to head back out there before November if anybodys interested. I think I might run it all the way to mud lake in one day and then wheel strawberry back to hwy50. |
:) My son and i had a great time .. super cool people , thanks to everybody for that .
Mak, 87-runner and reynoso are 2 members you left out . and id have to say it was a little harder last year than this year .. the rock garden had a lot more rocks piled up and made things easier along with no huge mud hole to get stuck in and no 15' tall x 40' long snow drifts on the edge of the mountain to pass over (ask stockwell about that one).. wasnt really hard just fun . Id have to say its a fun challenging trail for stock trucks , but not much for the locked ones. Ill post some pics this afternoon and work on the video i have . and I might have my son drive the whole trail next year:) edit * Ohh and stockwell that bumper is even more impressive in person man .. good job on that again. |

Uh...have you looked at your drivers side rear tire yet? Your fender lip cut at least 1/4-1/2" into your km2s all the way around the circumference. Saw it when we were airing back up. Also, I'd be interested in going up again in november.

That is awesome. I want to know how you managed to get up to 22 mph in the middle of the trail lol |
I am definitely down for a november trip. Hopefully we dont get an early snow this year
|
Honestly? if we have an early snow, I wouldn't mind hitting up eagle lakes, or something that doesnt have as high as elevation. If we have snow issues, surf N turf is in November.
If anyone wants to post pictures of damage of their trucks, go for it! |
trip was great. im glad i was able to make it through it, def want to do it again.
i will take some pics of my damage as soon as i can and will up load them. on sunday i hit a rock and bashed my gastank skid in and put a good dent in the corner of the gas tank. |
Yeah the trip was amazing.
I added a single video on the 2nd post... nothing special, just a camp overview of saturday morning ( with a little bit of the sun rise ) while we were waiting for Highonpottery and Redwolf. It was the only video that hasn't required editing. |
more pics... sorry, they are mostly focused on my rig since it was my buddy who was taking them...
also gonna get some videos up on my FB but not here since they contain too much foul language... http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/c9b5c524.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/a5d91ff5.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/c92c2b3b.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/35360d7c.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/173fb44f.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/9febb753.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/45360f88.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/0fc4f60e.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/8be56d26.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/b618bd25.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/35761dfb.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/83b9f973.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/a724cd30.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/6d9cf1b2.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/4579996e.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/2f2e2488.jpg and a pic of the tagalong we had for the first few hours... :hillbill: http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/c4c3607a.jpg |

Lol yeah. Your video has my girlfriend's commentary in it that I was planning on removing, but if no one cares then I don't care. It's nothing "big" its just her being over excited/anxious about my truck "making it through the rock garden." Everyone knows everyone's rigs are bad ass, and I already talked to her about it if anyone is bothered. It'll make it easier for me to just post the rest of the videos.
|
i think he really wants me to remove the part where she says "If He can make it AAAAANNNYYYbody can" lol!
|
Stockwell. That's it. I'm removing everything! I'm done! Haha
Robert. Hahahahaha exactly! She got a tad bit too excited. It's all good though. I'll post up a video tomorrow. You guys can enjoy the video she got. Lmao. Normally I'm not mean but she fell while videoing and I died laughing watching the video. Haha |
