Yesterday got bored, and Luke and I went up to try out a new wheeling area. So we went up to Goat Mt, just outside of Estecada. It was pretty good, neither of us had been there before, we were able to go on a bunch of the trails, and be chalanged, but no carnage.
Anyway, a few pics I snapped on the old camera phone.
All these pictures were from the end of the day, the trail we were on was blocked by a couple of big downed trees, so we followed a couple of other tracks through the forest and out to a logging road, it made for some pretty tight close calls with tree's.
So, it was a good waste of a day, no major damage, I took a very small dent to the drivers side rocker panel, and I hit the plastic lower bumper pretty good on a rock, and it broke where the peices are hooked together. Otherwise a pretty uneventful day. _________________

Ahh, I guess my little bro had a camera with him too, so he sent me some pics too.

Nice stuff. Amazing what these XJs can do stock with some decent all terrains and a good driver. Glad you got to take it out.
I'm excited for snow  _________________

Right on! And you still did well. My passenger rear tire is an oddball, because all 3 others are brand new Cooper Discoverer ATRs. Someone destroyed there new one and I have been off roading with a stock goodyear highway all season as my power tire.
Two Lamas in the forest together, that must of been fun.  _________________

TJ's will do great too on stock tires. If they aren't completely bald!

LOL, Luke is still using the same tires he was on when we went out in the snow this winter. Sadly, I think my street tires have more grip than those tires of his... |
