A local Reno 4x4 group had a trail run today and everyone had a blast. It was a fund raiser event and the total rig count was 43 IIRC. Not our local record but still a whole mess of 4x4s. It was great to meet another local LOST member, jjfgt01, and his stock KJ did great out on the trail. Now he just needs to build the crap out of it.
The trail was fairly mild but it was nice to get out and see some great views that I had never seen before. There was every kind of rig imaginable too. From a stretched FJ40 on 40+" tires to a bone stock Ranger, to a tricked out Jeepster Commando, to 2.4L Turbo TJ running 37s. It was a ton of fun with a great group of people and for a great cause. The trail run raised $526 too which brought our total amount raised to $2,836. Still have a trailer raffle, and some other things for auction too so that figure will go up as well. Here are some pics:
Nice view...
Parking lot...

Some wild horses on the way home.
This used to be a gold extraction mine where they used cyanide to, uh... extract some gold. It was massive and really run down as you can see. It must have been quite a place when in working order.
Apparently Scott sucks.
And this was our final destination for a cold Henry Wienhard's root beer and a Buffalo Burger. Mmmmmmmm.
Great day.
