    Last time I was out there was '08 with my '04 Taco, we went to Smuglers Cave, and back.
    I don't remember what the conditions were like. I've smashed skids, bashed rockers, and torn off the bumpers since then..
    :D

    Some more from our Borrego trip. A dozen or so of these wind turbine blades laying on the road. Maybe waiting to be installed or removed for service etc. Really cool to see them up close
