    We went last weekend actually; and everything that was too deep we were able to go around without too much trouble. There are pics up on Chuckles' build thread.

    Chuckles' 98 Manual SR5 4Runner

    Yep, back during the drought I could get to Teacup without having to worry about getting stuck at all. Most of the time before that you could get through even in the spring with a little help. Now it's just nasty haha. They don't bulldoze it nearly as often as they used to!

    Great shots Chuckles89! Had a fantastic time with y'all. Hope we can make it happen again soon. I don't have many excuses after seeing the trip SRQ-Runner made! Full album of photos I took here: Neil Reagan And here's some embeds of the best ones: Pickett 1/28/17 Pickett 1/28/17 Pickett...

    Chuckles89 Yeah everything's a pain. I've broken more bolts on this single truck than half of the stuff I've worked on as a full time tech combined. Gas tank strap, which I could have swore was stainless on these, was rusted right in two, had to cut the rear shocks out, re-thread the sway bar...

    I have the next two or three weeks mostly off if anybody wants to run Pickett or surrounding trails. Haven't decided when I'll go yet so I thought I'd throw that out there. They may be a little too sloppy this weekend, but I'm always willing to give it a shot if there's plenty of people...

    Here's an imgur album with some pics. Pickett '16 - Album on Imgur Chimney rock is not too hard to get to. You take the first right after turning onto the road to Yellow Doors, keep right, and drive till you get to the dead end where there's a brown iron gate. Then it's just about a 2 mile hike...

    Looks like y'all had a great time! Sunday was an awesome day to be in the woods.

    Chuckles89 Sure was! Thought that sharp '98 looked familiar! Went hiking to Chimney Rock. Couple weeks ago I made the trip all the way back to Yellow Doors Overlook. 14 miles of good 4x4 trail!

    Cookeville RV does excellent work including A/C. Franklin's Auto Repair in Jamestown also does, but they're probably farther away.

    No, sadly I didn't. I don't weld, so I depend on a co-worker to weld for me and he was swamped with things that paid better than welding for me last weekend. Word of warning for you guys, Pickett/Blackhouse are going to be bottomless pits of water and mud so y'all gonna get stuck haha. Have a...
