My brother and I loaded up together and joined the guys at Expedition Utah installing 6 new signs on the Miller Hill trail up American Fork Canyon. Those guys do a ton of work maintaining the trail up there, and we were lucky to be able to tag along with them for a day. Kurt from Expedition...

I got some new tires.

My brother started a channel a few years ago, and he infected me with the car camping bug. We use it document our adventures around Utah mostly. https://www.youtube.com/c/backroadexploration And here is a sample video of one of our trips. (He is in the Land Cruiser, I am in the 4 Runner).

I was bummed to miss the last trip and would be interested if there was another.

The kids were excited about it. I’m glad we checked before waking them up early. Total cloud cover, no moon in sight.

Spent the day with my brother in western Utah. Came across a grey haired fellow who was stuck, had a tire off the bead and no spare. He and his brother had spent the night (13F) in their truck. His brother left early looking for help, and had managed to walk about 12 miles by the time we...

Here is a link to the video my brother made of our trip. Sadly the lady who recorded our sketchiest unstuck moment never sent us the video. I guess I should have gotten her contact info instead of giving her mine.

My Brother finished the video of our trip up skyline drive from last month. Today I threw on a new hubcap that I got on eBay to replace one I lost on the trip. $18 we'll spent

Here are the obstacles on skyline near Reeder Canyon. They could be cleared up by Labor Day. If not you can drop down to potters pond and come up at Joes valley which only takes 10 or so miles off of the top.

Me too. I've done the top half in the past. Last week I had planned on doing the bottom half but the roads being wetter than planned ruined that for us. We also ran into 6 foot deep glacier that forced us to turn around. Glacier was just after the Reeder Canyon ATV trail. We ended up dropping...

My brother finished part 2 of our cathedral valley trip.

Looks like you had a great time. Wish I could have been there. Thanks for the pics.

I've been driving my 4runner on the stock tires for about 6 months now. I have been quite impressed with where they could take me. However as has been mentioned they are not super tough. A few weekends ago I was going to the Dinosaur Quarry near Price Utah and managed to puncture both rear...

My brother put together a video of our trip from a few weeks ago to Capital Reef NP. I think it turned out pretty good. Capital Reef is amazing. I can't wait to go again.

You should be fine with a stock Tacoma. My brother and I went last week in stock rigs (4Runner and a 100 Series Land Cruiser) and we had no trouble on any of the trails we came across. It was my first time there and it was amazing. I would say your biggest obstacle will be the river, if runoff...

Took my daughter to capital reef this week. Hardly anyone was in the north end and we had a blast. Got a little crazy with the wind. Solid Rock under the sand prevented me from staking the tent all the way. I should have moved but figured it would be ok. Crazy winds all night yanked the stakes...

I finally picked one up as well. I can't wait to take it out camping. Just pre-soaked in the yard today. Setup wasn't bad but to get all the stakes in is a lot of hammering. My programmers arms got pretty tired.

My brother and I had a fun trip near Green River Utah last weekend.

Fun weekend trip south of Green River Utah.

I have Clifford the Big Red Burb. And Finn.
