    The mud holes were no problem using 4wd low with a-trac engaged. The ruts are really deep. You just have to navigate really slow. I had full recovery gear including a winch, but never even got close to having to use it. It was pretty intense though. I was honestly a little freaked out on one section where you have to enter the rut. The truck teetered on two wheels until you enter the rut, then come back out if it. It was fun though. Take your time. I only have a 3” lift as well. My bumper got close to hitting once, but didn’t.

    Thanks for the compliment. We like it, fits the bill nicely. We're both in our 60's and the OP4 allows us to spread out, I'm 6'4" and have plenty of headroom. Fits in the garage so we're not getting dinged with a storage bill and keeps it out of the weather. EZ unit to take care of, (IMHO). We considered RTT's, teardrops and the like, and truck campers.

    Looks like an awesome ride! Do you have a link to this trail? I'm moving to the D.C. area soon and would be interested in making this trip.

    Absolutely, lots of mining history in this area if you're into that.

    Beautiful photos!

    I love the North Rim! There's a few places where you can find ocean fossils right on the side of the road...at 8700 feet!

    I've always wanted hike in to Canyon Creek up there (on the Kaibab Plateau, not the Canyon Creek near Payson). It's the only year-round flowing water up there and it contains pure strains of Arizona Apache Trout. I'm told Game and Fish uses trout from this creek for their Apache Trout breeding/spawning program. You can fish for them up there, but you can't keep any. Hiking in will be top priority next time I'm camping there.

    I miss the days and nights of operating motor graders and other adult Tonka toys.

    Had some beautiful scenery doing the Hole in the Rock trail in Utah a couple weeks ago. Downside is I blew my rack and pinion, so my 4R is still in Utah (I live in SoCal), working on getting it fixed, then will fly out and drive home (and this guy is stopping in Vegas baby!). Utah really is a beautiful place.
