if i can make it work, i'll be aiming to camp friday night. | Nice! The more the merrier!

| I'll be in for this one if I can get the in-laws to watch the little one. See how much easier it is with the new lift and tires.

| For those that have never been, it's a cool trail in the pines, plenty of good camping in the area. The trail is a "pick your poison" trail, relatively wide, so in most places there are easier lines and more challenging, good fun for everyone.
It's challenging for a stock rig, but many have run it clean. The key is careful spotting and driving, if history is any indicator there will be plenty of good spotters there.
Some pix of previous runs, search will net more. Keep in mind, many of the pix are of optional lines, more challenging than necessary. Payette Draw pictures from today's run Toyota Trail Team Event!

| As hard as you want. The 'Filter' will challenge anything short of a buggy, and there are several shelves 4-5' high that usually require a winch.

Who manufactures those? Are they welded or do they utilize a u-bolt set up?
Payette will be a good place to break them in
