I'm not sure where to start this thread, but I figured the hiking section might work.
My name is Brent & I hiked, backpacked, and mountaineered most of my life. My most recent passion is rockhounding, and having a vehicle to do it in has made my adventures more fullfilling in that I can get much further out than most. My truck is a 99' Toyota Tacoma 2.7 with a 2.5 inch lift, just enough to get through most blm roads I've encountered. I live in Olympia, WA, and like getting out to Eastern Oregon the most. As much as anything, I think the hobby is mainly motivated to just be out there, way out there. This hobby has alot in common with everything else this site discuses, though I haven't seen subject come up yet. I am really curious if there are other rockhounds out there and where would a discussion on this topic fit in the best.
