Offroad vid review~Washintonians LOOK!
Hey guys this vid is definitly worth buying. Washinton guys have any of you ever ran the Evans creek trail? It is one killer trail! Lot's of cool shots with Mt. Rainier. This vid is similiar to a home video except much more professional of course. I liked it though because there wasnt much music like other vids so you could hear the engines and what the spotters were saying. The rigs are mostly heeps but there is also a deisel powered Land Cruiser and a Defender 90. All of them are locked front and rear with ARB bumpers and winches. They need all that stuff too for this trail! You can buy their whole line here

Thanks for the link Joey.
I have heard of the production company, but not the vid.
My local Central 4WD I'm sure carries it.
Heck, they might even be in the video.
They get out a lot, and are in a Naches video I posted about a month or so ago here.
A good trail at Even's Creek is 311.
I was told by some other Toyota guy's a few summers back to keep my rig off that trail if I wanted it to stay as nice as it is now.
That's why one day I will have a dedicated trail rig.
Something I could care less about if it gets a dent or gnarly long scratch in it.
Here is a 1.2 MB map of the area that I just happen to have.

I have done a lot of exploring up there, but not the hardcore trails in there.
I have camped there before at the little campground they have there.

I too am with you guys. Even an old beater solid axle Yota with a strong engine, some meats, and a locker would satisfy me. At least for a little while

Evan's Creek isn't that tough, but it's a lot of fun. You can run 311 dent free (maybe not scratch free). Most of the trails at Evans' Creek have been run by enough 4Runners, Cherokees and Broncos that the major dent producing obstacles can be cleared and for the really tight spots there are bypasses. 311 is defintely not a stock rig trail, but this was the first trail that I ever ran offroad. At that time I was running a 4: systension lift, 2: body lift, 35" tires, stock gears and a True trac in the rear. I only ran the lower section that day, but made it through without any major problems. I've since run the full 311 a few times with nothing more that a door ding.
I've finally decided to give up on pretty. Doesn't mean I'm going to trash my rig, but you won't find much chrome on it anymore, I've trimmed the front fenders and I threw away my truck condoms (a whole story in itself!)>
