Boredom = Wheeling Fun 56k warning

So I got bored today and went down to 5-mile pass. Never been there and went before the meet this month on the 24th, just to look around. I took the trails on the left side of the road. The right side had a ton of atv's on it and I didn't want to mess with that.

Didn't really do anything all that technical but it was still fun, took some poser shots and a short video (it fine being the camera man until you kneel down on a covered up catcus and get a couple of needles stuck in your knee). Enough talk here are the pcitures:

Poser shots first

I came across a fire that some left burning still a bit. So I put it out by shoveling dirt over it and by another means which won't be mentioned.



It's no Tacoma but I still love my 4runner

Nice pics, looks like you had a great time.
I gotta get again soon.

Kudos to you for putting out the fire.
I too have helped put out a fire with your second unmentioned method.

Thanks for posting pics of your run. I enjoy seeing stock 4Runners doing their thing. Yours looks rugged, and we can see you really have fun finding challenges for it.

Fun to see more of your pics. I have a dent in my rear bumper in the exact same place as yours. I backed into a tree stump.

Must admit that I like 3rd Gens, but do I like them enough to replace my 2nd Gen instead of the 80 Series LC that I want? Hmmm...
