Redhead Down #3: We Cross into Colorado The clear Wyoming skies meant that it was a very cold night. Everything covered in frost - including our pillows and sleeping bags where we'd been breathing on them as we cozied down for warmth - even Monte @Blackdawg came out of his tent in the morning...

Sure thing! There's lots more in the PNW, if you're interested. You can check out the areas I've been, here: https://adventuretaco.com/index/destination/

I'm out of the Puget Sound these days, but find myself all over the west on a very regular basis: https://adventuretaco.com/index/ (and then I recommend the by Destination view)

Honestly, you sound like you'd fit right in - we all give and dish quite a bit over the course of a trip! ? All good fun - shoot, if you can't joke around, what's the point, right? The activation thing was cool - not something we usually do, but Steve was totally into it, and it was cool to...

Thanks for the kind words! Given that we all met on Tacomaworld, we've never had a Jeep on the trail, but I don't think we'd be against it! Of course, you'd likely have to put up with a bit of ribbing, hahaha. Speaking of ribbing, I ran across this the other day. All in fun.

Redhead Down #2: ******, There's a Bat in My Tent! I didn't wait in Rawlins long before Monte @Blackdawg and his dad Steve @woodnick showed up at the gas station across the street. Their trucks fueled up, we said our warm hellos and set about our first task of the trip - buying firewood. It's...

Thanks so much! I've got more trips that I'm posting all the time, if you're intersted in getting those as they get posted: https://adventuretaco.com/subscribe/ And here's part 2 of this one ;).

September 15, 2019. It was 2:00pm when I parted ways with Pops in eastern California - our relaxing trip into the Sierras just the start of a 3 week journey for me. The next two weeks would be adventuring to - and then through - Wyoming and Colorado with some of the normal folks - Mike...

Thank you both! I had no idea Moly was closed - do you have any more info on that?

How I Got Started with Offroad Adventuring I don't know how useful this post will be, but it's not uncommon that people ask me some version of how I got comfortable going off into the great outdoors as much as I do. Sometimes it's about how I got started; sometimes it's about how I am able to do...

Rear Axle Seals - This Time on the Tacoma When it rains, it pours! It was only a few weeks ago that I replaced the rear axle seals on the 3rd gen 4Runner. No good deed goes unpunished however, and it was only a couple days after doing the job that the same failure happened on the Tacoma - only...

Whipsaw Trail 4 - My Trip-Ending Discovery As expected, there wasn't much sunrise to see and we all had a good sleep-in on the edge of Whitehead Reservoir. Turns out it wasn't just the fact that we had a hill to our east, but also the fact that it was reasonably overcast - a few minutes of...

Whipsaw Trail 3 - Four, Three Wheeling Tacomas August 29, 2019. It was 5:00am or so when I awoke after a shockingly chilly - yet pleasant - night’s sleep. I could see Monte @Blackdawg hanging out behind his truck, waiting for the sunrise from my tent door. Figuring I'd let him enjoy the...

Whipsaw Trail 2 - Some Winching Necessary The day had been hot, but it cooled right down overnight - much nicer for sleeping, we all agreed. And sleep we did - it was 8:30am before the last of us finally climbed down from our tents, having missed the sunrise entirely - a cloudless sky...
