Just got back a few hours ago, good times for sure. Not too much damage. A small battle scar on the passenger side rear door right above the window from a decent sized downed tree sticking out into the trail. Front passenger side tire got a slice through the sidewall, only 1 ply though, so its still good to go. Broke the passenger side rear corner mount of the roof rack. Was going a little fast over some whoops and accidentally launched off one. With the weight of the Hi Lift it stood no chance. Haha.
Weather was great. First trail which was the lowest in elevation got up in the low to mid 90's. Once we were on the Sherman Pass 4x4 Trail we never got above 80. Right around 75 all day. This morning when i woke up it was 40. Kinda nice. We were 8000ft and above most of the time though.
I have to say that the Sherman Pass Trail is my favorite out of the trails i have done so far. Huge trees and a little of everything as far a wheelin' goes. A little rock crawling, some rutted areas, a lot of super steep climbs and so on. From the start of the trail we climbed 2000ft in a little under 2 miles. It was good stuff.
Ok, blah blah blah. Onto the pics.
