There is a sign in town said that Monitor Pass is open, so that is good news regarding the snow pack.

I'd love to run Deer Valley in our 100. I made it through in our stock 96 Tacoma with only sliders. I haven't been since 2000, when we did Pardoe's Trail one day, and Deer Valley the next. It was a killer run!!
I'm in, I just need two weeks noitce. And I'll even bring my Toy this time!
What is happening to the 40?
I ran Deer Valley from North to South in my bone stock F250 4x4.
But I am in for a run in my 40.

Guys,
I'm in. Deer Valley is a beautiful trail.
It's not too challenging. But lots of fun. I'm game.
Last time the 2m radios shined on that trip.

PS: I'm staying out of the whole Shotts discussion. It's just a circular joke that goes nowhere.

Because everyone knows that wagon drivers from Rhode Island are the most hardcore, besides the one wagon on Avalon, CA.

That's what I'm saying about a stock fj40!
What's Rubicon rated via the bypass routes? I'm adding lockers, more aggressive tires and some protection.

You did hit your rocker though didn't you? (I was right in front of you) Just trying to keep it real, if you will...
As for Rubicon, Even with taking all the bypasses.. I wouldn't take a stocker thru there! You're guarantied some body damage on Rubi.. (stocker)
You've seen mine (SOA w 35's), and I couldn't avoid some damage last time i was there..

Rubicon - naturally "10" even with bypass

That's why some drivers choose to come in from the east via Cadillac Hill to Rubicon Spring and exit the same way out. I would say rated "9" from my 100 series perspective.

Cheers,
Yea. I'll have that spot protected by the end of May, at least.
Sigh. I wanna go. Maybe we'll come in via Cadillac Hill and ride MTBs around and check it out...
What kinda damage? Sigh.

It wasn't horrendous, but damage none the less...
First pic shows one of my touches, the second shows both scrapes... The top scrape is more pushed in than it looks in the pictures...
Once I get my 6o series springs installed, it'll be sawzall time and that bottom scratch will buff right out...
