Awesome pics man! Damn that looks like a lotta fun. I like how all the 4Runners start off so clean and by the end...all mud.

Hey what kind of tires did the green 4Runner w/the ARB have? They look like Wrangler MT/Rs.

You might wanna ask Poboy, oh yeah, the red runner was Mike (INsr5runner), green runner was PoBoy, and the black runner was Shazad (sdastg1)

Ohh man, what a trip. Its 2:00pm...I've just woken up. My bed is sooo much better than my 4Runner in a McDonalds parking lot . Next time Im calling the hotel to confirm availability.

Twas an awesome ride. I think we did just about everyting. Mudding, rock crawling, sand dunes, awesome trails, near roll-overs, poser flexes, winch out, ohh and of course a little body damage to prove it Im amazed more and more what a Yota with open difs can do in comparison to the competition. Mike and Shazad tore things up! I was laughing my ass of when this wranger took 30 mins to do something, then gave up. Mike and Shazad completed in one attempt. AWESOME ˟˟˟˟!!

Thanks Rob for all the pics! Next time you drive though, and Ill get one of my passengers to take them for ya

285 Wrangler MTRs like mike said. They get the job done, cept when there is a 5 foot sink hole that you dont know about till its too late.

Uggg...cleaning. I dont even wanna think about how many quarters its gonna take to do it. Plus my interior is trashed too. Im just gonna tear it all out and drill some drain holes or something... This trip has officially turn my 4Runner into a trail rig. Daily driver comes in a few weeks...

Thanks for the awesome trip...well worth the drive.

PoBoy

Hey, no trip is complete without getting stuck I love getting the winch out. I paid $600 for it...it better get some usage!

I definitely want the highres pics. How much space do they take up? I may just have you upload them to some random webspace of mine...

I definitely did..granted last time I was only there for a few hours, but still...we did it all it seemed. Well almost, there is even more creek trails to explore and a couple more rock trails. Next time when you are lifted Dan, my roommate that came last time, is pretty upset he didnt come. Actually he's pretty pissed. He's my winching man, and forest took over. He's ready to regain his throne.
