Great Time At Big Bear Invitational

What a fun time in Big Bear. It was nice to meet a lot of great people driving FJ's. I first went to the 4 wheel intro by Chris Nelson. He was informative on Treading Lightly and Recovery (Winching, High Lift). My first trip was the Jacoby Mountain Trail, easy trail with a little help at the end by Kevin & Woody. I went on the Gold Mountain Trail on Sunday. What a great trail that was. Thank goodness we had two great spotters Joe and Garrett- Thanks a lot for your help. And thanks to all the guys at the Toyota Trail Team. Like the bag and trail team emblem, and thanks for all your help on the trail. Can't wait to do it again. For anyone that was on the trip I would appreciate any photos you might have-----Wally

Glad to see you had a good time! You should come along on our other trail runs too! Although we don't always have such nice goodies, we have a good time!

What a perfect post for ....

Um, yeah, guess you figured us out. It took more planning than the M&G, but it seems we've pulled it off nicely.

I've never seen you post up about a great time I missed out on.

I was telling my wife how everyone has been rubbing it in your face, she thinks we are juvenile.

I do not care.

You really missed out, the Trail bag, shovel and TT badge/emblems kick a$$.

Re: Great Time At Big Bear Invitational

I'm with Dom....I had to work, and have outpatient surgery all at the same time. I missed this one, and I'm VERY sorry I did. The fires killed the last TT event here in So Cal. I can tell you all this: I will not miss the next one. Even if I have to drive Toyota's 4X4 FJC, I will be there!!

Great pictures (in all the threads), and awesome stories!

I just remembered, my emblem is still nicely wrapped. I should take it out and look at it.

Be careful Tony....that emblem can be mighty intimidating to some women and young adults!


Oh, the TRAIL TEAMS emblem!! Never mind.......
