Nah man, throw them all up. It's always nice to have more photos and more angles.
And to add on that, meant to say it over, don't worry if you don't have a locker. Three of our seven rigs on this trip were open/open and had no problem. TTORA requires a locker, 4x4trailmaps.com says you need a "slightly modified vehicle." Ha, not in a Yota.

Agreed with on the pix there is never enough for show and tell.
As for the trail and rigs being stock on this trip other than my bumpers I was the most stock truck out there out of any the rigs in lift running 28" A/T tires with 25 psi.

Yea man , i was really surprised with what the stock toyotas were able to get through .. in the rocks they did great .. the mud was more of a challenge ..
again it was a great trip i really enjoyed it . my son keeps asking me when were going back ..

Well for me I have got to get new rubber before I make any more trips. That trail tore up these old tires of Fairy's a little which are from 04 or 05 not sure but still good for the road for now till im able to afford new one's or forced too which ever comes first. Last sept. as you all know Fairy and I turned around and went home cause I was worried about damage through that first rock garden and glad I did cause my tires that came with the runner for the 2 years I owned the runner got chewed to hell which is why im running Fairy's old stock set before his up grades.

I am uploading all my photos and a little video I spliced together on my phone. Nothing too fancy and maybe a bit slow but there are some good little moments in it. I didn't get too many shots this time around but I think there are a few good ones in there.
Standby for the links...

one thing that i really noticed this past weekend was the comparison of how a 4runner wheels vs my x-cab truck -- you guys really do have a MUCH tighter turning radius than i do and your breakover angles are impressive as well. i had to austin powers it a few times whereas you guys were able to make the turn in one shot. makes me want to put an x-cab on a single cab frame for my next truck.
got the majority of my pics up in the other thread. i've also got a few more in my photobucket account. let me know if any of you guys want the original files on any of them.

My only available weekend is the 2nd weekend. I might be able to work the 4th, but very doubtfully. The 1st and 3rd are out of the question. And this is all supposing there really is a September run.
I met Robert through Craig's list last week and he told me to check this out. Just bought an 87 4runner and want some wheel time. If I wait until the mods are done I'll never go.
I Would like to make a trip and I am available Sept. Th-9th, Fri-10th, Sat-11th to Squaw? Pismo? Day trip to Hollister?

KML And GPX Track Files
I know this is super super late but I finally got a waypoint track out of my gps that I brought along. I'll post up a gpx and a kml file if you want to try to view it in some other app and check out the route we took. Google Earth may be the easiest but I feel it's kinda ˟˟˟˟ty.
