Lol, just have to try it next time. We were pretty surprised when the door opened.

Thanks for the great trip report. Haven't been to DV in many years, will have to plan one in the near future.

Great report. We did Goler Canyon/Mengel pass also last weekend with our bikes - was quite a challenge.

Thanks Nick. Another stellar blending of a trip, history, and some beautiful pictures. I'm currently working on the route for a single day offroad moto loop outside of Ukiah 150+ miles, after that I'll have to think about the next trip.

Almost thinking of a combined 4wd & Moto/route trip. One route for 4wd, one with more off shoots for bikes (since they will travel at a higher rate of speed) as well as an option for sag/Sherpa duties assuming the camp spots are relatively easy to get to so wives/kids could go see other areas of the park and meet at the end of the day at camp spots... need to think about this.

Is Rhett's new rig stock or modified?

/\/\/\ this. I am in the Bay Area, with a 4runner on 33's, have a DRZ 400 and family. I'd love to get in on a trip as you described above.

Looks like a good trip. Reminds me of my November trip there. As Nwoods said, keep me in mind for future trips. I have a fully built 100-Series Land Cruiser and am always looking for new people to get out there with. I only have a wife and a dog. So I'm especially some younger guys without kids to explore with.
