It's all good. Miah stayed at big pine flats no reception. But he and his girl had a bad day as well. They may have gone home last night. He blew out a rear shock and had to strap it again. Then he lost some lug nuts, luckily tire didn't fly off. He probably f this and went home.

Ouch. Wonder if that rim damage was from the canyon run. Sucks.

White Mountain is no joke, one winched out 5th gen, I high topped my TRD Pro twice. One dude proved to be the BAMF of this trip and that was [MENTION=143747]Bryguy17[/MENTION]. Fully STOCK as a ROCK, Trail with street tires. Seriously, conquered all but suicide hill which none of us sacked up for. Bryan let's roll anytime and imagine what you can do with a new pair of shoes!

Sure makes all your lift kits and AT tires look pointless, eh? :lol: I still hand it to the truck, though. As much as people roll their eyes about all of the bells and whistles in the newer runners, those damn things work. Some sliders and KO2s are definitely in my near future though. I'm not sure my front skid plate can handle many more excursions like that.

It was great getting out and meeting everyone yesterday. Great group of guys, and thanks to everyone that lent me tools and knowledge and stuff. Definitely have a much greater appreciation for what I can actually traverse in that truck.

I'll throw up the few pictures I took once I get them onto my computer. I'll try for today.

Definitely looking forward to the desert trip next month if I can make it!

Yes the rim damage was from Mecca canyon and took it down there when I got the new tire and had them check and told me it ran true and everything was good and i even pointed out the lug holes and to get a new rim ...instead they put new lugs on and sent me on my way ...well guess what that rim and lugs are getting slammed onto the front counter desk ...and it's not gonna be fukking pretty.

Wanna borrow my GoPro chest strap? Because this NEEDS to be on camera.

They shot themselves in the foot by saying it was true. They should have not rushed you out and been honest with you.

Count me in on the next one! Looks like a good time, I was backpacking this weekend, didn't get to fully take the ride out.
