Isn't it funny that none of the trails look hard in the pics.

Here are some I took, along with a few favorites from past trips--

You guys that was a blast!! You didn't miss anything after you left, Alfred and I went up the other side--what a waste of time and gas.

I know it is very short notice, but I am planning on hitting Lawsons Peak tomorrow the 27th. I would like to be in Alpine at around 3, and it takes about 15-20 min to get to the trail.

Let me knw if you guys can go. Next Friday is no good--4th of July

4:00 is good for me--as long as we get going righ away. I need to be home by like 7:30. We can meet at Tavern RD Carls JR or at the offramp for Japatul Rd.

I'll be there, 4pm, Japatul rd exit sounds ok. Is this your final answer? Or do you want to get some Carl's burgers, Marc?
I don't know about Brandon yet, I'll give him a call.

OK 4 pm at the Japatul rd exit--turn right at the offramp and wait there.

I had the name of the trail wrong--it is Carveacre Road Trail-- It is 10 miles long I guess, and at the top is Pancake Rock.

Map--

Well Carveacre was a blast yesterday. That is a very challenging run, and you guys went through it like pros--sorry about the slight navigational error after Pancake Rock--and your tailight Rob. That place is a true test for almost any 4x4.

We will do it again soon, just this time we will stay to the right!!

I added 2 pics to my album
Just a little trail carnage
I had a great time on that trail, definitely the most challenging we've run so far!
Lance, if you read this, you've got to try this one. I needed my locker on the first rut, just pulling off the road!!
Also, my gas tank skidplate is starting to look like yours. -Robert

Rob!

hahaha, but you know you'll never catch up to me! I have more love marks underneath! lol

Looks like some carnage out there ehe? sweet! I'd love to try it!!!

Good news is sliders will be on tuesday! and downey's suspension should be on in 2 wks (pending my scheulde though....)

Hopefully I'll be able to test it out soon!!!!

Hungry valley was a blast. Alot of it was 2wd and we really didn't hit any 4wd sections cuz we had 2 new 03 4runners join us along w/ 2 2wd trucks. So we pretty stayed on the 2wd trails but even those required some creative lines! hehe Got to drift away from the others and checked out miller jeep trail (4wd for sure). and it looks like a trail that i'd love to hit next time i go there. (if you guys ever come up here, you guys might like it! just abit far for ya guys - and I mean far!)
