Dodge's are nice too, but i've always been a Jeep guy. I used to do a lot of rock crawling, and serious 4wheeling. The experience helps me get way back in the back country. Here's me present Jeep.

What in the world are you doing with kalifornia plates? Nice BFG skins by the way. Just a lonely little Liberty owner here, will be lifting it soon for bigger rubber. It does help to have a trail capable rig, the out of state folks think the trail just ended, when in reality it just began. You shouldn't have an issue with that rig on chinaman's gulch in your 'hood.

I had just built the Jeep in that picture. I was still living in Big Bear Ca.

Oh ok, I'll let you slide then,lol. Ever eat at that Mexican restaurant in town, casa del sol? We did that the last time we went to Cottonwood Pass. Only gonna happen once!

I never eat out. I like my own lousy cooking. I've gotten used to it.

I just got back from scouting up at Cottonwood Pass. About a foot of snow in the timber. Wore me out hiking in that stuff. I like muzzy season better.

Do you still have any deer up high?
Ours are long gone. That mid Oct snow really threw us a monkey wrench.
Even seeing a few elk down low already.

I had my dog with me, so he would warn them before I got there. I saw plenty of fresh deer tracks though. Not so much scouting, because I know the area well. More like a hike. That's the only time I bring my dog.

I see more elk at 9000ft right now, but I haven't looked real hard.
