Have had my 2002 Sequoia for about 3 months now and bought it to be a daily driver, to tow my track car around, and for some overloading. Haven't done a ton besides your basic maintenance, Bilstein 5100's all around and a small lift (1-1.5"s), a new roof rack with lighting integrated into it, tire upgrade, and an RTT. Just had our first outing in it and have noticed some items that will need to be addressed in the form of: more lift, rock sliders, diff protection (just in case), water holding, way better packing and preparation, and then more learning from myself. It's been a blast though and the sequoia handled it quite well.

My current rig on its maiden offroad voyage, probably 2003(?) -- the hi-rez photo was taken with a camera that stored images on a floppy disk.
People I hung around called this "car camping" back then, but really didn't talk about it much, it was sort of considered cheating I guess since you weren't walking uphill hauling everything on your back, and sleeping with a rock jammed in your kidney.
Anyway, truck has remained all original (except for a new frame) until this past summer.

I decided to go up to the Greenwater area of Washington State near Crystal Mountain. Hit a couple forest service roads. Still rocking a stock Titan. I’m still deciding on what type of truck I want to end up with. Definitely staying with a full size. View attachment 123964View attachment 123965View attachment 123966View attachment 123967
May I ask when you went up and took these pics? I'm taking a group of ladies up to Buck Creek and Lonesome Lake this weekend and we were hoping for snow camp.

So here is my rig... 2011 FJ Cruiser - she's been all over wheeling, camping and exploring. This vehicle has given me the best last couple of years and counting. Biggest most substantial trip was 6 months after I got her I did a minimal build with a lift, bumper, winch and tires so I could go to FJ Summit 2018. I took 15 days, loaded her up and drove 3900 miles thru 8 states. Went to most National Monuments an some museums along the way. Even got to touch dino fossils! Played in Moab (scared myself when I put it on the front two wheels), Did FJ Summit in Ouray, CO (Loved this experience), spent a couple days in Yellowstone went up thru the beartooth highway, camped in Wyoming, Montana. It was a long solo trip but was awesome. Would've never had done it had I not got this FJ. IMG_0944.JPGIMG_7226.jpgIMG_7461.jpgIMG_9683.JPG

Thank you! I am hoping for snow at least at Lonesome Lake which FSRD 7160 and at 5,000'. We're camping at Buck Creek so I would presume it would only be a dusting if any. But should be COLD LOL
As of 10/19 Buck Creek (7160) was closed due to washout. That’s what the website says anyway.

Thanks HOLY HELL!!! Scrambling now to find a new camping spot EEEKK. Still trying to hit Lonesome Lake which says its open. Thanks for the info, I thought the campsite wasn't in that far as it is closed at mile 4. But I don't have time to run up and see unless I run up tomorrow afternoon and would have to find another rig to go just in case. Girls meeting at 9am Sat.
