Boathouse sounds good. Earlier is better than later for me, how does 9 sound?

Good grief, 9am???? That will work. Where are we meeting and appx how long of a trip is it?
This will be my first time actually driving the 4runner other than the trip home from the dealer.

Hey [MENTION=85832]Howard35[/MENTION],

Saw you around 8:30p on Charleston/Town Center I believe? Saw the Gobi & wheels. Truck looked good going through the intersection. Wish I had the lift you have. Looks great man!

Thanks. I live right near there so I'm always through that intersection. I think I saw u as well last Sunday west of the 215 near Cheyenne, off pavement near those mountains/hills all the way out west, it was probably around 2pm or so. Love your rig as well, looked at a black trd pro before I got my trail but they wouldn't give me what I wanted on my trade.

Howard35, suggestions as to meet location?
Click to expand...

We met up at Redstone picnic area last time its only a few miles south on northshore drive from the boathouse cove trailhead. Its a bit of a drive still from the north park entrance station, it took me about 30min from there (I think in the old post I said it was about 15 MI from the north entrance, its actually more like 30+ MI). I think the entrance fee may be waived because of the holiday, but id make sure you have some way to pay just in case.

9am Monday at red stone picnic area sound good?

I may drive back through valley of fire park or take the bittersprings byway back into town after we run boathouse, if anyone else is interested in taking that way back with me just make sure you fill up before you leave town because there are no services near there.

Well that's a coinkidink! That was me. Selling other car and wife just left that area, so I stayed to play around a bit.

Roger that. We'll be there. Are we meeting at Johnnie Post Office or the trail head?

The trail starts directly across from Johnnie, I'm gonna follow a buddy who knows where to go exactly, we're meeting at about 8am on hwy 160 & country place rd. should be at the trail shortly after.
 
I'm going out Thursday morning and also probably Thursday evening if anyone is interested in coming along PM me.

We can meet at the 7-11 at Aliante and 215, which is south of the 215, around 0800 hours on Monday.

Chiz45, do you want to roll with us too?
 
The one by the Starbucks. I don't understand why there are two 7-11's within a 1/4 mile of each other.

I have a friend with a Jeep (sorry!) who will be joining us.
 
Awesome Ride today gents...

Several of us did Boathouse Cove today. What a blast doing about 50mph in the desert twisties at times! These trucks' capabilities are crazy. Each ride makes me love the truck even more. Looking forward to the next one.

While we were there, we also spied the prototype for the all new 2016 Toyota Amphibious Pro!

Here is a couple shots of [MENTION=120209]tigger[/MENTION] and I on the bittersprings byway. Took us about 2:30-3:00 hours very bumpy and slow, but some good scenery and some decent challenges along the way.
