Looks like a great trip and great pictures. However, the full size images do not appear to be linked properly. Only thumbnails are viewable.

Scott,
Looks like fun--I am dying to go wheeling, but with the new baby time is a problem. I want to do Carveacre again soon. It only takes a couple hours to do, and gives you and your truck a very good workout.

I've been itching for a trip too!
Soooo jealous I couldn't go to Pismo!
Scott you look like you've added a lot since the last time I saw your truck, looks really good.
What happened to Lance's Gorman trip idea in Sept?

Pismo is a blast--I was there a couple months ago, but with the wife being 7 mos pregnant, I had to take it easy. I did follow the fence around the sand hwy though.

If you guys want to plan a Sunday or Friday run to Morena or Carveacre let me know and I will try to make it.

I just need to install my manual hubs first.

Hey all the scratches on my roof give my truck character!!
Scott--the trail is pretty wide-there are only a few areas you may touch brush

What Sunday is good for you guys??

I have to work next sun for some reason, I'm usually off, so it sucks.
Although I will be getting off early, I would rather go in the morning.
