Isham Canyon - Saturday 2/16

Yep. You or @Hank was supposed to come with Steven so you could babysit the kids in case we have to fix anything major. lol

@Mike_taco4x4 you are welcome to ride passenger or even bring your own truck...

@AssBurns

I'm about to pack the rig. How you looking? Still on for 9ish?

I just grabbed the trailer from my dads. Gonna head home in a bit and finish packing. My day has been constantly busy. The bummer part is my stomach has been all fucked up so coffee in the morning won’t be a good idea. Gonna be a rough morning hahah. Might just say fuck it and bring a jar of tums.

I'm hate getting up early on weekends so my plan is to skip coffee as well. I'm just going to grab a energy drink while I'm filling up. lol

Energy drinks get me all fucked up. More than 1 in 24 hours will completely fuck up my day. I’ll be tired and wired at the same time. No bueno.

New dent?

 

[Tetten]

Goddamn. Looks like it's more of a "body damage guaranteed, extent of which will depend on your vehicle" trail

 

[AssBurns]

That rock got us both. There wasn’t really anything that could be done to avoid it unless you winch up a different line maybe. Matt basically flopped into a wall in the V-notch while I was pulling him (in hopes that it wouldn’t bust out his window). Well that didn’t work and I busted a CV axle in the process. The side that the ball joint was welded onto the spindle... luckily it was a small bead and we had it fixed pretty quickly.

Matt also blew a bead and busted a tail light. I busted my front corner light more than it already was. It was a pretty awesome trail and the damage was worth it IMO.

I just saw the IG video. Bummer for the window.

Absolutely worth it. I've wanted to do this one for well over a year. I knew it would do damage. I also knew I could live with whatever damage happened. I'd run it again next week. It was that good.

All of the videos I watched on that trail showed people hitting that rock. I'll take a pass on that one.lol. Glad you guys had fun. Our group all has some good body damage now except for @Tetten cause he covers it up with linex

It was worth it.

Hahaha Andy should be at the overland expo with his to show off how you can overland, wheel, and keep your truck looking pretty by being anal as fuck.

Made a little video compiling the videos I got of @theesotericone yesterday. I suck at taking videos and editing. I don’t enjoy it really, so I don’t try very hard at it. Enjoy!

 

[4runner DOA]

No fucking way my wide ass rig would have made it around that rock.

 

[AssBurns]

@Tetten i just opened up FB and this was right there for me to see. It’s telling me something I think

Made me cringe with the arm out the window on that off camber section. Trail looks super fun

Don't. There is no way possible my rig could have rolled to drivers side in that location. Zero, none, nada, zip, zilch. My arms was as safe is it would have been in if it was on the steering wheel.
