To me, Fins is pretty much the classic Moab trail, and you'll do just fine with your rig. Granted, it really is on the easier side of things, but I always have a great time on it. Dont be afraid to try the harder lines on it. Personally, the second half gets a bit on the tedious side though...

Really?!? That's messed up :( How far up did they groom it? I'm a bit confused about the free piece as well... Granted, I have a pass that will be good until the end of the season, but I'd still like to be informed for when I take up others. From the map, it appears that they're only...

Thanks for sharing the information with us. We tried to get up to Strawberry Peak from Main Canyon Rd today and was blocked by too large of drifts about a mile from the top. It looked like a few other trucks had went up there recently as well. Nice and awesome trail for sure. It wasn't...

Looks like a great trail. I'm really not familiar with the area, but in looking at Google, it seems there are two potential ways out of Walsburg (main canyon rd and little valley rd). Both seem to meet up at Strawberry Peak, but I haven't installed my topo maps yet to see if both are actually...

This has bounced around a few places. It is just an optical illusion that its an arm. Look at the branches/leaves that make up the space that defines the arm before it stands up. The leaves are always there, and when the, assuming bear, stands up, it does so behind the leaves, making it...

You've sure given up some awesome old Jeeps. Although I'm sure its not the most capable by far, but I've always liked the look of that old cj5 body. So, although the buggy is the most capable, which one have you had the most fun with?

I've seen some videos of those back east offroaders, and its likely a completely different experience here. Generally, more of a slow and planned, instead of floor it until you bounce up. Of course, I'm sure not everyone is like those crazy buggy people, but generally, rocks are pretty sticky...

That sounds really cool. Been highly considering building up an RC scaler truck mirroring my own just to show how much time I have on my hands. It seems really hard to find a tacoma 1st gen ext cab body though (although I think the sx10 cab would work if I could find a bed to go with it)...

Yep. Great times. Thanks for putting this together Kevin. I'm about worn out as well. That drive back home sure is a killer.

Dont want to step on anyones toes either, but there is also http://www.gg-lighting.net/ Still not as cheap as Krany, specially once you add in the shipping costs, and it looks like the reflectors behind the leds are larger (not allowing as many leds -- 6" = 6 leds wide vs 3 leds, but it is 1.5"...

You've been holding out on me. ;) Thanks for these, as now I'm able to fill in some of the blanks on my own map database.

I installed a Hayden 679 on my Tacoma after watching the trans temp get in the 280s on trails. The dummy light is supposed to come on at ~300 degrees. It's about 11x11, and personally, a bit on the large side for a trans cooler, but that was all that was in stock at the local parts place and...

I thought I replied to this thread already, but guess not. Anyway, I'm planning on coming.

Although I dont have a 4 runner, I'm really not that far off. ;) Please keep us updated on your future trips, as I love small group, medium difficulty stuff the best. Really, any excuse to get out of the house is good.

I'm curious as to how one would use the ground to toggle the relay. Could you give more details on that? The easiest way to wire it in my eyes would be to do the relay switch piece as follows: light power -> relay -> ground, so when the lights have power, it turns on the relay. Of course...

I agree. That's good enough to use as a guide, except for the missing ditches at the beginning. Gives a really good view of the obstacles.

Yep. Its me. :) Actually, the 80 I have used to be Tacoman99's. Still have it fully together, minus the tires. Still need to do something about the carb in order to make it usable on hills. Its me still. ;) Pretty awesome run. I do owe y'all lunch of dinner or something... No way I...

Its all good. As long as the general consensus is that its fine, thats good enough with me. One of my favorite trails to take newer people on and would hate to see something I/we were doing caused it to close down. Just one of those odd things that everyone is so careful about not ruining...

The only place that worries me about forest lake is that mud pit before the top of the hill right before forest lake. Last year, it was pretty steep, but still had plenty of room to bypass it. This year, going around looks more dangerous than the mud pit itself, as it seemed to have gotten a...

I completely agree with Steve. You could've easily done the same lines I took (black tacoma). Granted, I tend to take easier lines than I need to due to it being my daily driver, but I'm only running 265/75R16 (31-32" tires) and IFS, so you'd be just fine on Rattlesnake. You'd really be...
