You can bring a quad for the trail if you wanted. I guess you can park at the trail head?? Though you are setup for sand really.

I will go ahead and sit this one out then. I will be up at crab flats the 19-20th anyway and I just stayed there last weekend as well so I guess I could stay home for a weekend and save some gas money and wear and tear on my truck.

You'll be fine. That first hill is the only one I can think of where ground clearance is a concern and we can get you around that. The other tuogh section has a bypass to go around. The only spot I think you are going to have a tough time with is the last hill and that's only because of the rutts. Do you have a limited slip?

This trail used to not be full size friendly back about 10-15 years ago. There were a couple of tight spots and one of the tight spots had a big step that your truck would have high centered on. However, there have been a lot of H1 Hummers though it and they widened it and the step is now longer there. Phil used to have some pictures from about 14 or 15 years ago when we went with our club through it in his K5 Blazer. One of those pictures is of me standing in front of it with the front tire about 4 feet off the ground when he was going up the tight section with the step. Now that section is easy enough that you could do it in 2 wheel drive.

Not a minute earlier. At least one of you will need an open seat as I think I'm going to just focus on camera stuff. I'd like to take the Jeep but the clutch really needs to be replaced as it chatters quite a bit.
