FlWakeBd, You are in as you will notice in the first post on this thread. We need you and your FJ Cruiser (not the other vehicle) to be a trail leader on "Boar Skull" and "Indian Arrow" trails. They are tricky but I know you will be the best coach!

“I think you should leave the old 40 at home and bring your wife's Sun Fusion!”
Let me say this about that…I enjoy living.
I’ve had the FJ up there before, with the wife as a passenger, I just didn’t take it through the “tight” places that you and I have now widened a bit. As far as cross county through the clear cut, no I didn’t try it with the FJ. See above, had wife as a passenger.
Here are a few more pics from a few years ago while cross county in one of the clear cuts. You’ll also see my Dodge momentarily forwardly suppressed. Had the Dodge stuck up there at least four times. The FJ is a bit lighter.

What Archie shows is correct, but we don’t have any pigs or hogs in the FLCA. There has been a couple turkeys come as guest, but luckily they didn’t join up, and make sure that booze bottle stays in camp, never on the trails. We have a few members that act like bears, but they turn out to be more like the loveable deer.
While the wilderness trails will give you opportunity to see any and all of these inhabitants (yes there are bear up there), they will take cover due to your screaming and yelling about the difficulty of the trails. Too bad they can’t be taking pictures of us driving on the trails. That would be priceless.
Right now we have four FJ40’s; three JFCruisers (if Bob brings his FJC and not the FJ5); one FJ80; one pick-up; and one guest in a Land Rover that have committed to going.
If anyone wants to try wild hog for dinner Saturday night, let me know. And also if a night ride would be in order.

Considering it is a full moon on March 21 I think a night ride is perfect. Parking lights only? Makes for a nice leisurely ride without the headlights and adds to the ambiance of the evening. "lame stand" trail would be perfectly mysterious!
Re: FLCA Run March 22-23 will challenge all off road enthusiasts!
Well, looks like this rain will make next weekend a real adventure. Forecast to have rain next Wed. and Thurs. so the dust should be down on the roads. Also should add some water to the trails.
Archie, you can add Rickey with his 4Runner, and Tracy with his FJCruiser to the participants list.
Can’t think of a better plan to a great weekend…
Here's a few more pics of what it can look like with some rain, not to mention the real trails.
