I had two 3rd gen 4runners in my life, did some light wheeling while at college in Arizona. Very capable vehicles, but quite small for 2 people and not terribly comfortable on long road trips. Always drooled over the Land Cruiser 80 - iconic styling, legendary reliability, solid front axle...

I've been thinking of doing a trip down to Alabama Hills this fall before they shut down highway 395. Or Highway 120. Does anyone have any tips on best time to go, how many days it takes to do properly, things to do etc.? I would be heading down from the SF Bay Area but we could easily meet...

Corral Hollow:

Awesome trip guys. One for the books! Here's some pics Alexis and I took: Slick Rock:

will let you know! We are only doing a very small portion of Slick Rock to get to the camping spot by the creek. None of the stairs or any of that stuff. I will be interested to walk down and see people tackle that stuff though.

The White Whale I need an ARB bumper

Thanks for all the info, Matt! We will be going from the Lake Alpine side as we will be going from there to the Corral Hollow trail head on Saturday.

Yes as far as I can tell, that's the good camp spot. I've personally never been, so I'm going off of verbal reports, photos, and google satellites. It's basically a 1/4 mile down the slick rock trail near the creek. Right before it starts getting really challenging. PM me your cell number as I...

I should be there in the White Whale. Hoping to clean some of the dirt off it from last weekend first!

I think we're in, but I'm not sure we can leave work early enough on Friday to get there before dark. Would we be able to leave early Saturday and meet you guys and join for camping Saturday night?
