Looking for easy to mild trails without pin stripes and rock gardens. Not ready to look like a real off-roader.

That's why I was thinking Cline Butte again, the rocks aren't too horrible and there isn't that many tight spots for pin striping. At least the sections I went on last time.

Did we still want to hit Cline Sunday/tomorrow?
Maybe head up 4601 till we get stuck in the snow?
Or just bag it till more can go?

Sorry to miss you guys. I headed out to Cline on my drive home.
I'll post up some pix. I put the first good "OUCH" on a skid plate.
I am grateful it was there. I sure felt/heard it!

Here it is, the first dent!
Nothing like the issues you guys had at Edison, but this sure got my attention!

Holy excrement, I just realized you were in Bend. We have talked several times before (when I was working on my Tundra) and it never sunk in. I grew up in Madras and our ranch is at Smith Rocks. Bend has changed so much over the years.
As far as wheeling, have you guy been to the quick silver mines by Haystack Reservoir?

Uh, I'm not sure to be honest... I've been pretty wiped all week since I finished the 4Runner last Saturday... Maybe? It's supposed to rain Sunday and Monday.

The first one is always the toughest, doesn't look to bad though. Glad you had fun! 
I'm not interested in making the fiasco at Edison a regular thing. lol

Ugh, we have been short-staffed at work so I've had few chances to catch up on this thread...looks like folks have been busy!
Interesting that so much was incurred at Edison - I had my issues at Cline...
I'm still interested in lining something up in the coming weekends.

I made a little cardboard cut-out thingy bobber to check your UCA if you want.

Problem is, have to take a standard nut and cut groves in them for the cotter pin for them. The BJ stud isn't long enough for extra metal piece on the gusset above the spindle. I had to make one when I had the SPC.

Back to life...
Anyone up this weekend? I've been informed I will be installing lights on the roof of the house, otherwise, free!
Also, I just made an appt @ Kendall to install the lift. I'm usually up for anything, but the KDSS has me a bit freaked out.
