What an awsome trip! Thanks for all the fun and the company. It was nice to meet all of you. A special thanks go out to Lance for getting this all together and finding an excellent camping spot. Next time tell me when we're gonna be minutes from town so I don't bring the kitchen sink. :cry:
Also, thanks to Lance and Bruce for the excellent spotting that got me through that last obstacle without any damage.
Damage wise, some new rim scrapes, more skidplate carnage and a pretty rash on my right rocker panel. If I had only been one inch farther to the right...... Anyway, no dent, just a rash. I wish I had gotten those sliders like I had originally planned.
Correction: There is a dent!!
Great pics Bud. I shoulda stayed in front of you the whole time. Thanks for watching my back...end.

That was a great trip, I had a lot of fun
I was really impressed my truck could handle as much as it did with just a locker, though I did get stuck once or twice

That Flowmaster sounds freakin awesome too!

Just curious if a stock taco with sliders would've made the trail with some minor bruises.
