I was out tooling around in Truckhaven yesterday (in 2WD no less) and had a blast.  Ran the Tectonic Gorge trail east to west geocaching, looking for the Hydrant Hill cache.

This is a killer off road area, just west of the Tierra Del Sol playground and practice area.  Lots of room for camping!  This run will be a great opportunity to hone your skills in the tight stuff.

Fun, fun, fun!

(that's three fun stars on the fun star scale btw)

im surprised i didnt see you out there john, my roommate and i were out there for a little bit, then we headed west towards the s2 and i broke a rear brake line when it got caught on a tree branch.  had to limp my truck home through julian to avoid freeway, luckily there was no  one on the road after 9pm

Bummer...hard line or the flex line? 

If flex line, give my buddy Chris Meisner at Nisstec a call and order up a set of their extended brake lines...tell him I sent ya' and he'll give you the 3 day door to door service from Colorado. 

We probably passed each other in an adjacent wash at some point...killer weather out there and not crowded at all.

[knightrider]

Short hard line on the drivers side.  Most likely because I don't have the extended lines so the flex line was unbolted leaving the hardline vulnerable.
Oh well, 3$ part and 3 days downtime cause I'm too lazy to make my own.  And I'll be ordering the longer lines so that I can be proper again.  Good thing I have motorcycles and nice weather this week :-)

Thanks for the tip john, extended lines ordered from nisstec

Cool Jordan.

I was out in Truckhaven geocaching AGAIN yesterday.  I can tell you, this is a fun area.  If you stay on the main trails, stock/sliders is okay.  Wander off into any of the serpentine washes, you will want a locker/lift combo for sure, with at least sliders.

Some awesome views to be had for sure!





Hydrant Hill...lockers mandatory.

Hydrant Hill...lockers mandatory.

Privacy shelter optional.    Awesome pictures!  Looked like a great day to be out and about.

List me as tentative Ray...thanks.

I have committed (before this run was planned) to NPGTech's Titan swap day. I haven't heard from Nick if it is definitive yet. Hopefully I will know more soon.
