DBBB here we come! April 27th -31st

Had a good time in the Hoosier National Forest this weekend w/@Jsulmer01

Most of the DBBB would be passable in a stock Tacoma. The parts I would be concerned about are in the southern part. Walker Creek can be deep at times. The rock obstacle on Old Fincastle Road would be very difficult. I never recommend offroading alone. As long as you have the means to...

Hopefully, I can install my Highline fenders, this weekend.

Highline fenders.

I miss my CJ...

We're not going to be moving fast. So, you should be fine. I'll let you know where we stop for the night.

Sounds good, looking forward to meeting you!

OK dates are set! MAY 27-31. We're planning on hitting the trail on the 28th (5 hour drive from Indiana). I think we're going to start in Slade and head through the tunnel, counter-clockwise on the loop.

I use Gaia as well. It works cross-platform... The South end is the only part of the route that I am concerned about. Walker Creek can apparently get pretty deep at times. You can always bypass areas that are too sketchy.

I'm going to give the rock obstacle a try. I've watched a lot of video of vehicles of all varieties make it. Seems like picking the right line is key. My YJ is a low CoG build,but I have taken it over some obstacles that, I thought for sure, I wouldn't make. By Memorial Day, I should have my...

I'll keep you posted, as the date gets closer. Plans aren't set in stone.

My YJ is on the right...

I have a a whole backroom full of Jeep parts to put in this weekend.

Definitely sounds interesting. I've been working on a U P trip.

Two new front seats, grab handlos, ram mount, rollbar bags, on board air, and tire carrier cargo rack. Next, dual battery and a fridge. Then, Mama says I am done for a while.

New transfer case, and next 33x12.5 R15 tires.

I plan on shooting video. I will only share well known areas. My gems will be kept for myself. Here in the Midwest, trails are in limited supply So, I typically use the "known routes" as a starting point. Then, find interesting "unknown" things to do along the way.

Agreed, the over-done rigs at the ORV Parks, need to stay there. I had a guy at one of my local parks, in an over-axle lifted YJ, drive by and say "cute YJ"... I was like, at least mine is street legal.
