WooHoo, what do you do when you just pick up your brand spanking new double cab 4X4 Tacoma...take it wheeling of course...!! My 4runner went too, my buddy is the one who purchased the Taco...so more pics of me, neener neener neener




No, not hardcore, but fun for us near stock guys!

His Tacoma on the same rock as the 4unner above but with some helper rocks to keep it to NO body damage.

Ledges look smaller than actual size, trust me, they swallowed up my 285's like nothing....though I think I could have made it with an arb up front...

I finally gave up on the harder line, and settled for the medium line..which still had a good size face to climb at the end..

Again, hard to see just how steep this one was, but in the video (to be posted later) you can actually see the driver rear start to lift off the ground as it nosedives...gets MUCH steeper just after where I stopped for my poser shot

Tacoma same hill from the bottom....




Longer wheelbase makes the trip a little easier in his truck...

Take 60 all the way until you branch off towards Florence Junction, then take your first left after the railroad tracks. The prison will be in view.

Take that dirt road all the way to box canyon, then out the other side.

There are numerous ways to get there, but this is the way I go. Obviously grab a map before make the journey.
