I'm from the South Bay area (Gardena, Compton, Carson, Torrance).  I don't know any wheelin' spots around here.  The only places I know are Johnson Valley, and up north of Magic Mtn.

I've heard of Azusa.  I plan on going there when the sun comes out to play.  What is TDS?

TDS is the s#!t!!!!...I love that run,it's probably one of the biggest runs of the year in SoCal.Something like 1300 vehicles(mostly Jeeps,Toyotas and Samurais).Awesome trails from eazy to hardcore.It's the first weekend of March.You guys let me know,and we'll hook up and leave on that Friday.The run is on Saturday,all day,with a big ass raffle on Saturday night,Currie,4WP,BFG,Rubicon Express,Tracktech,CRC,etc.all kinds of stuff,and you get a raffle ticket when you register for the event,wich is $45 if you pre-register,and $60 if you register there...Let me know.Oh yeah Wraith,I'm hoping to be ready,still got gears,lockers,a new t-case,beadlocks and some cage work to do b-4 then,but looks manageable....Azusa Canyon is mostly mud,but there's a little of everything,including a small rock garden.Check out www.acorausa.com and see what you think...There's also some TDS pictures on there.

Anybody who went to the bender jambo last year could never forget it. I'm getting excited about it already.
