Whats the terrain like/difficulty?

I'm still down, asked for the days off...and I'll probably get them. Currently the rig is in the back to get all me new goodies (winch bumper, c-rock plates, riddler d30 cover, zj tierod, hella 500 lights, hi-lift mount inside, herculine the whole interior).

P.S. I MIGHT have an extra seat. And Waxj, still down to convoy?

No luck finding anything so I think I'm going to gear the front 44 @ 4.88 and down the road do a 4:1 tcase.

the terrain at TSF is completely different in the snow (which there may or may not be?). open / open is doable but a TAD is recommended. There are bypasses for every trail if need be.

TAD? What is this..."TAD" you speak of? I saw some pics from last year, looks like fun. And comparing my rig to some of the others...looks like I could do it.

If you want to be able to crawl, 4:1 is the way to go for a manual. That's the route I want to take, 4.88's with a 4:1.

:huh:

As far as I know, nobody has made it when there's even the slightest bit of moisture on it.
