Been a few years since I’ve been to Bowman- but I recall it being a nice place. Is the bridge over the overflow spill way still “out”? Last time I was in the area the bridge was down and we had to follow the makeshift path down into the waterway.

I’m in but not sure which 4Runner I’m taking yet so not sure if I’ll meet in Rocklin or at Nyack.
Also, my neighbor with his 5th Gen T4R will be joining us.

Good idea to call the local ranger station for specific info. Great way to get current info and details relative to what your looking to do.

rochmpr might know / have some thoughts as I think he had 34s or 35s on his 5G.

This area has everything from dirt roads you can take a minivan down all the way up to Fordyce difficulty within 1 to 3 hour drive. Just depends on what you want. I’d say if you don’t have safety/recovery gear get that and then just start exploring (safely) and see what your limitations with...
I ran Hell Hole at the end of May …. In my 1G with a bunch of other built rigs. It *might* be a little easier with less mud on that middle rock obstacle but I would not tackle it in my 4G even with the full armor I have. I think with a 4Runners wheel base you really need at least 35s locked...
