Pictures from Red Elephant Hill
A couple pictures for your viewing pleasure!!!
Truck did great, Atrac worked as it should when I needed it (need a rear locker!)
Trail is really narrow toward the top, I thought I could get through this one section with trees on both sides, I was wrong and my front bumper paid the price. Guess I need that Demello front bumper even more now 
The rear is really flexing nice though with my new springs and shocks. In both pics I still had more flex, rear tire stuffed great, no rubbing!!!
Enjoy.
Ben

Nice pics! Looks like your back bumper paid a price as well.

Great pics - how was the climb up?
Anyone done Jones Pass (near Empire) - worth the trip?

Ha, yeah forgot to mention that as well. Same spot I was trying to get through, if I was only an inch narrower!
Good news though, it just popped right back out, got to love plastic!

Climb up to Idaho Springs? It was fine, truck still has plenty of balls on the passes.
I have not done Jones Pass. If I do it here in the near future I will let everyone know how it is.

Dude, where have you been!?!?! You're truck looks great! I ran Moody Hill last week with a couple of the guys, I was odd chic out with the only 5th Gen! Give me a call if you can go run anything next week, I know IceNomad is in town too. Sorry, not trying to hi-jack your thread…
