good easy going trails in siearras?

Hello I have just started getting into wheeling my 4 runner. mostly to scope out trails to run my jeep on and to take other like minded jeep owners as my self. You see my jeep has undergone a 2 year restoration and is just the way it left the factory. but I am not happy with just taking it to car shows and air shows it needs to be driven on trails and taken camping. I just started leading a group of us jeep owners off road. but you see we dont want to scratch our jeeps too much.

I know you think what easy trails for a jeep and scratch paint? Well you see our jeeps are a piece of history and there is alot of time and money in them to make them look the way they do. since they are from WWII.

so if you know some good trail runs between 80 and 50 that you know wouldn't smash anything or flip us, as we don't have seatbelts or roll bars. that would be cool.



incase you wounder what that black thing is on my friend Randy's jeep. it is a m2 .50 Machine gun. but deactivated per CA requirements.

Cool jeeps!!!
Check this book out for trails, they are rated and anything 3 and below is pretty easy going!

Also check the California 4ROC section as we will post runs we plan to do there. I want to try to get 2 trip to the sierras this summer, not going to do rough trails. more easy to intermediate. You might want to join.

Signal Peak is a good run. There's a hard way, which has its tricky spots and is overgrown ( = pinstriping), and an easy way which is basically like fire roads. The view from the top is spectacular.

Here's a link to some pics from there. The link goes to album 1, and there's a 2nd album you can select also.
