You guys really think we're too wide? I doubt it, especially if the H2 and FJ went up it. Raptor was meant to rock crawl as well as everything else.

Keep in mind the track width of a Raptor is WIDER than an H1 hummer! Might be a bit tight!

By 1 millimeter. But I feel ya. I know you wouldn't have a ton of room but it looks like they would make it. Would be sketchy thought if you were pitched by a rock.


Took my Tundra up that - but not sure I want to take a bunch of full size trucks thru there. Rather go thru steele pass but that may be a bit narrow for the Raptor. Plus I am adding Long Travel to my Tundra which will increase the track by 4 more inches.

Yeah there was like a butt hairs worth of space on the driver side but couldn't see the other. Nice climb BTW.

Here is my plan:
Friday drive in and camp at Armagosa Dunes - Free camping and some sand to play in(Flags required).
Saturday - Run Titus canyon then out to Eureka Dunes and camp there for the night. Sunday - Backtrack in with a stop at Scotty's Castle, then down the Racetrack rd to the Racetrack in the morning. Up and over Hunter mountain out to hwy 190 just west of Panamint Springs.

I would suggest solidifying dates. After planning a couple runs I've learned to find a solid date at least three others can make and just set it. Build it and they will come :biggrin:

Otherwise, it makes it impossible for people to plan and you just end up with several pages of guys saying they'll go depending on dates.

I don't really care about the dates unless its on my wife's birthday or like Christmas those dates I would have to pass on. I do agree on keeping it cool as I hate the heat unless out on the water in the boat. So please keep me on your list of who wants to go.
