Just to clarify...we are running both Slickrock and Deer Valley in one day (Saturday). Sunday, we may hit up Corral Hollow or Mt. Reba on the way home.

Let me check the calendar. I'd be up for a day run through Slickrock and Deer Valley on Saturday. I'll let you know for sure. Definitely bring the mosquito repellent as you'll need it. I say we make it a timed run through Deer Valley and see how fast we can do it. :)

That sounds good, lets time both DV and Slick Rock.

the fact that you don't have sliders and are still running stock skids means you can take both trails hard and fast!

I'll bring my trailer so we can get your FJC back home after we demolish it. :)

I just spent all last weekend washing/waxing my truck, no way I'm gonna get it dirty again so soon.

j/k, wish I could go but I have to watch the kid a save some money for goodies. Those trails will be real fun with a small group. Damn, I'm so jealous I can't go!
