Georg at Valley Hybrids is the best. Awesome guy who takes real pride in a job well done, and hugely invested in the LC community. If your screen name means you drive an ‘88 cruiser, he’s your guy. It’s a little far, but I keep a Gold AAA membership just so I can send my rig to Georg if it...

I think you’d have some trouble not dinging your stock bumpers at Slick Rock. I’m lifted 6” on 37s, and my rear hit a couple times. The bigger Jeep I was with (Ray) hit his rear bumper and bent it up - and it was an armored one. I think he’s lifted 4” on 35s.

Three dusty travelers who just finished the hardest trail they’ve run yet. Fun times!

All rigs from our Corral Hollow run, lined up at the ridge overlooking Bear Valley. Also, our view from near the Utica Reservoir side of Slick Rock Trail.

Sure, 10:15 Friday. See you there! Also - hot springs are not the bomb at Barney Riley. The pools got smashed out, not sure how. There was only 1 small pool full of algae.

Barney Riley was fun. There’s some steep rocky Dow hill on the way in, but it was easier to climb back up on the way out. There are lots of branches close to the trail - I got a solid coat of desert pinstriping on that trip. I’d recommend leaving it alone if having a pretty rig is important...

Sounds good, see you there.

Haha! Good on ya for posting the trip then. Love the adventurous spirit. We will both figure out Slick Rock together, but I do know where it is. When are where are we meeting Friday morning? At Corral Hollow or Safeway in Arnold (about 15 minutes from trail head).

I’m in. Have done Corral Hollow when my rig was more mildly built, it was fun. Stoked for Slick Rock. Doing Barney Riley with my sons this weekend (7/5 through 7/7). Sounds like fun!

I strongly recommend getting other vehicles / families to go with you. We went in April, single rig trip, and missed out on a lot for practical / safety reasons. At 105 + degrees during the day, the potential consequences of a breakdown really limited our options. We still had an AMAZING time...

Actually, I lied. Well... not really. Transfer case upgrade went sideways and I’ve gotta wrap it up today, sooo... I’ll see you all at the next one.

Gonna make this for sure, see you all then

Thanks! I’m loving it. Honestly, the wheels came with the rig, but I looked it up, and they’re made by Ultra. 16” wheels

That would be fun! There’s a good chance we will run into each other - Gold
