Well I went exploring last Saturday. All I can say I need a lift!. I backed into a freakin log........ while turning around. Scuffed the back bumper pretty bad, there's no paint now. 
All I could here running thru a clear cut was scrapes on the underbody. I really miss my old runner now. Mr. Bob wanna sell me back my runner? 
Anyways, the back road to the Indian Arm river is closed. They have it gated now. It would have been a pretty good run for stockers.
When you guys are game to go let me know. I'm thinkin Harrison is the only place to head out to now that not too far. Anyone know of a differert spot? Is eagle ridge to difficult for my current set up?
If we all are gonna get together we reallyneed to set up date to make it happen.
Another thing is how I come I never know when you when you guys reply to this thread? I been having to check on it manually? Anyone else having this problem?

carnage on your 06? niice. was the trail to indian arm blocked with boulders? when we were up there i think we found the trail but it was blocked...so we went around it. didnt follow it far though. oh wait, i think i know the gate youre referring to. yeah, theres a bypass to that, and then the boulder blockade not too far up it.
whens good for whomever for a meet n trail run? i wanna go explore up harrison too. either sunrise or hale creek area looks fun. down at the powerlines at eagle would be ok for your rig im sure. couple of trails that just loop around are fun to mess around in. you could try to snake through the bypass, it can be done with careful line choice n some spotting. AT tires would definitly help too. i havent been up eagle since they 'modded' it though.
if ya wanna set something up lemme know. it'd most likely have to be a sat or sun, but i can do midweek as well. just need some notice. even a quickie half day trip can always be fun. last weekend of july..can that work for anyone?
are you set on subscribe w/ instant email? i usually get updated on here pretty quick, but sometimes have to visit it so it still knows im subscribing..i dunno. happens with other threads too haha

well ive got sat aug 5th off. anyone interested in doin some wheelin'? im probably gonna be meetin up with a couple people from FIBC over @ stave, then hitting the trail to the lookout. never been there before so should be interesting. lake is full so no mud flats...which is ok coz i just wanted to hit the trails anyway. its stocker friendly i think?, but im sure there is some fun stuff for more modded trucks as well...
anyone else into some wheelin on the 5th? maybe bring up a bbq and have some eats n drinks somewhere?
...anyway lemme know.

My folks are driving all the way down to see us. Gotta make some time for them.
As for the rest you guys I'm game for a quick meet or something. I live in Port Moody now so I'm pretty close to all of you guys. Lets set up a time and place and make it happen.
Just curius how far is Eagle Ridge from me? sounds stupid, but I just moved here. :bigclap:

next saturday (12th) im gonna do the sunrise run with the 4WDABC. its stocker friendly...challenging but fun. it'd be cool to have some other 3rd gen 4runners there...or even an FJ dave! i saw pics of an fj doing the run a couple months ago...he made it no prob.
so who else is in?
oh..and eagle ridge isnt too far from you dave. id guess maybe 20 or so minutes? its just at the top of johnson street in coquitlam. ill check it out with ya one day...its tricky & challenging..but fun (the entrance part anyway. not sure if you'd want to go through the bypass & up the mountain..lotta bc pinstriping...
oh..and this sunday im doing davis lake again. thats also a stock friendly run...sunday morning if anyone is interested...

No I haven't. Don't know why, it's so close to home but I just never seem to get out there. How about I meet you in Mission at 9:30. What's a convenient spot for you.
