    Mojave Road 1/2-1/5?

    We did! Weather was great, trails were clear of any other travelers as well. Water crossings were low, we did the entire thing a stock '14 4runner on stock tires. It was a beautiful trip.

    Waking up on the edge of the Grand Canyon?

    Hello Texans

    Likewise... Looks like he made it to the coast, but not much of a report on trail conditions or problems with private land. Any update? I'm looking for a shorter trip, near Austin, and this may be it!
