DIRTCO's clean turbo 4Runner on 35's next to my beat up POS on 39.5's


Heading up the boulder field


At the top.  Snow level was minimal.  A couple of inches in spots.  Wind was blowing hard, probably 40 mph gusts and cold wind chill.


We decided to eat lunch in the rigs, too cold and windy.


The lineup






Some of the building are holding up well, others are not.


Storm clouds brewing.


2 Toyota's and a Jeep.


Amazing to think they got that big spool up that road.


My almost 2 year old's first trip out!


Funny face for the camera




Gotta love the reverse shell wheel with the safety bead on the outside.  I didn't even notice it was off the wheel, Mike and Jeremiah chased me down the trail about 100 yds.


No rim damage.  Took a couple of ratchet straps and Mike's OBA to get it seated.



Turning around on Grizzly Lake after the first section.

How'd those new MTRs do on the trail? Glad to see no windows were shot out by the Sierra Club this time..

Parking spot



At the top!

Down Valley







This building was amazing, it would move around a bunch in the the wind (you could hear it moving around too).  I don't really think it will still be standing in a few years, there's not much keeping it together right now.







Above the building





And back at the parking lot

You guys got up there at a good time; next week there was a decent snowfall out there. Took the girl's Tribeca up to Tin Cup; it actually made it on stock radials!

Phear the mom bomb! I own it for dogs... Got rid of an S2K (don't judge), so both of them could fit in a car. I lived less than 20 mins from Laguna Seca almost my entire life, I like fast cars/bikes.

Hope I'm not still blocked from posting pics?


Autofocus and I still manage to take blurry pics?!


My first trip past Salida, having moved back home 6 years ago... I'm hooked.
