It will be very interesting going down the dropoff and through fish creek. And I thought getting the touaregs through there was fun. :?

And what about that off-camber spot in Arroya Seco Del Diablo? I haven't been that way in a while, so I have no first hand experience of that spot.

The off-camber spot is no longer very off-camber. You can now get thru without having to go up too high to the right.

His rig has 37's., he going to scoff at the drop offs, any of them :lol: and I can't think any place in Fish Creek where you even have to slow down much less be concerned about fitting your rig through a squeeze? You're making much to do about nothing.... ;)

My rig has 40's - drop offs don't phase me. The suspension flexes pretty well. Off camber is the only thing that concerns me at all.

Thanks!

Oh man, I'd really like to head out there again but I don't think I'm gonna be able to swing anything else until after our Mojave trip. If I can, I won't know until the last minute.
