If you do get to go up there its totally worth the drive. So beautiful up there.

Just a heads up. Photos from this summer show that the trail to Blue Lake and Independence is VERY washed out. I'm taking like two feet deep of trail bed are gone. I'm told that there is now a rock or two exposed that will make part of the trail almost impassable for some trucks. This guy says...

So, seriously debating getting into a fullsize pickup. Just brought a Silverado 2500HD home to test drive (it's a new company truck we're not using yet). Debating a Silverado 1500 Trail Boss. There's so, so much more room inside and my kids are super cramped in the Tacoma. Plus I never get time...

Glad I logged in on a whim to learn about April's meeting happening. Glad to see this beginning again.

From what I hear Duratracs when new are great snow tires. But their Kevlar sidewalls are not very strong. Heard lots of stories about punctures, etc. Plus I don't think they make an E rated Duratrac (could be wrong). For full size, let alone diesel, trucks I'd skip Duratracs from the input I've...

Heck yeah. We have a Kydex maker in the group? :)

You did pretty good though. LoL When I wasn't posing the picture turned out just fine. Haha

Oh and thanks to Marie for taking this super swanky photo of me for my dating life... just goes to show you're never as sexy as you think you are... lol

Wish I took more photos. Was too busy pulling Aaron out over and over.

Got some friends in Norris with a Jeep considering going. They don't have a CB/HAM though. I don't have a handheld version of either to loan them.

Winter Storm Watch for New Years. Hopefully it'll make our trip more fun!
