Nice logo, I'll take one XL.

I would like to go to Frazier Falls. I think you can ride a MTB to it.
 
Damn! That is bad ass Darrell.how about an 80 next to it just to be fair?LOL

I will take 3 XL before it runs out. That is 3 shirts not XXXL ok,hahaha.
 
What do you guys think?

You could merge this picture with that one. Though it would probably be better to use one of Jose's, as it doesn't look like I'll be making this trip.

That's an awesome logo!!
 
About the logo; I originally was going to make something like what @vipergrhd mentioned about the front grills from each generation but I was having too much trouble with finding suitable images and struggled a bit with how to chop up the later generations. I tried a few different layout ideas before I gave up and made the current logo from scratch with one pic that was on my desktop.

The reason I did not including a 40 and an 80 in the logo is lack of space. If these are going to be printed on shirts with the final print size and locations being an unknown to me, I wanted to insure that the printing didn't end up bleeding together, leaving all 3 trucks unrecognizable.
 
I think the logo's great. Thanks for the doing the work on it!

Do we know what the estimated breakup will be of rig models? Number of 40's, 60's, 80's etc????
 
Dang, i haven't seen any updates for a while....

So, few things:
1) anyone is welcome to swing by my place Friday am and caravan from here. I live down a little road, but we've had 15 rigs in the yard and scattered up and down the street. Neighbors are used to it now. If you want to meet closer to 49, there is a dirt lot behind the gas station off of Brunswick road we can meet at.
2) Who's bringing kids? My girls are hoping for some friends. (will have 3 kids and a woman in tow with me, we may bring 2 vehicles)


I posted directions earlier, and they are in the first post as well. If you get lost, call me.. five three 0 2 zero five six 4 zero 1
 
@The Machinist Quit worrying about the logo you did a fine job on that 60,what we can do is we can alternate different series of LC every year and go from there. @matttaylor1976 thanks again for offering your place as a meeting/stopping point for us to gather i'm sure some of us will find our way in your yard.LOL

Any updates on how many rigs including non Toyota are coming? I have some firewood to bring but not much,would like to know also what is the trail like going up to camp rating from 1-10 and 10 being the Rubicon my friend with the 4runner thinks his rig may not make it up there.

Rotating the cruiser generation if this happens again next year was what I was thinking too. The final image may or may not need to be edited slightly depending on what @KWalkerM finds out from his print shop. He is handling the shirts and will get back to us on that when he can; he may or may not still be in school for the year, and I'm about a week away from diving head first into final projects so please bear with us! :D

Guess we'll see...

It's settled, you're doing Snake Lake :D

Any other somewhat challenging trails in the area? I've ran the Gold Valley OHV trail from Johnsville eventually out to the Sierra Buttes and that was pretty much dirt roads all the way. If I have time on Sunday I'd like to drive out to Tamarack Lakes...

Also - does anybody know if once at Tamarack Lakes you can keep on driving south till you eventually hit the 49? I see a few trails leading south but I can't tell if they can be driven on all the way out. Or would I need to return north to Packer Lake?

Yeah the logo looks great! This will be my 2nd shirt with a 60 on it when all I have is an 80. There's something wrong here :flipoff2:
 
I'd rate the trail to the 4x4 camp at a 5. A stock truck with good line selection will do fine. It takes 20+ min to go a quarter mile if that's any indication. A car will not make it but I did see a brand new 4runner limited on 20s last time.
 
When entering from Gold Lake Hwy? Definitely not the way it was when I went there last September. Then again I am a big pussy...
