K02's passed the test on ski hill on muddy roads

[Swede71]

Spent the weekend with a bit of fishing for cut throat trout, hiking and testing out the 4-runner. Lake we hiked to is tough to get to and stocked so literally every cast you have a fish on the line. Back roads on the ski hill were like wet clay from the rain, and the blizzard we had on the way out. KO2's were awesome and definitely needed low range, diff lock, sand/mud mode and hill decent for the steep incline/declines.

Unless you are affiliated with the hill, unfortunately you will need to park at the gate before the bridge.

Nice rig and beautiful Akita's!

thank you, they are great pups and they probably love the 4runner as much as I do with the rear window and all the space they have. It is great how driving in the city with their heads hanging out the window brings smiles to so many, lots of times I see people waving at them as well.

the spot where we parked at by the upper lifts was where they filmed the latest Audi Q7 commercial released in the US Jan of this year. The pups were filmed in the commercial however they decided not to use them for the final cut. At least its a bit of bragging rights to say they were filmed.

Looks like it was a great outing!
