    You can hear me say "ouch" in the video. There was a loud bang right when you dipped at that rock.

    This was the closest I could see. If anything it was that first one. Looks like you did bump it.

    Looks like we will start building the next batch of sliders by the end of next week.


    Any orders from now until then would get in on that batch.

    With powder coating and shipping that might cut it close, but we can pencil it in for now. I might try to get shims, shackles, and light done by then.

    @joonbug have you watched any High Lakes videos on youtube? It looks tough.

    I can't decide if I like that rule or if it is the worst idea ever.
    I was looking at the book and realized that the really gnarly picture is an optional cutoff, but I wanted to see more of the staircase portion.

    The worst ideas always leads to the "biggest" adventures. ;) Yeah, some of those YouTube videos look pretty gnarly but I wonder if those are all the optional route? Atleast everyone will have sliders next time we go out. Worst case, we can turn around. :D But I'm not going there without Mark.

    The camera work and music were killing me watching that one.
    1:55 No way we are going to squeeze between the rock and the log. We'll have to drive over the rock.
    2:25 This part looks like it might be fun and we can probably get through.
    3:16 Things start to look sketchy.
    3:43 I'm worried about dragging the rear of our trucks.
    4:37 I know I'm going to test out my driver side slider on that rock.
    4:44 Looks like an opportunity to drag the back end again.

    It looks like it could be a lot of fun as long as we make it through without damage. I'm not going first.

    Don’t worry. I’ll go first... right behind Mark. :rofl: And don’t worry about logs, Warren’s got a chainsaw. :D The rest of it is picking a different line than those guys. But seriously you pointed out every single spot I was worried about. But we’re definitely hitting this trail... at least by next year. Maybe we should send Ed up there first to scout it out for us with his “skinny” truck.

    Is this an update from AP or is Matt, @GodlessPro getting something different? @jberry813, I'm ready to try some snow bashing.

    New people that come out to the meet and greets will have a nice range of sliders to look at to help them make their decision.

    @joonbug and I are always behind him, it will only be a new experience for you.
    I like the idea of using Ed as a pilot car. We can put a sign on his FJ that says "Watch out for big ass Tundras!"

    I'm looking forward to checking yours out. PnP was one of my considerations but then the AP group buy happened.....
