Ji's network is down so we will be comunicating via e-mail and phone t coordinate this one. We are looking to go play in the snow up in the Rubicon territory in March or April. Let's all try to make this a good turn out and try to decide on a date we can all make it. You too KVO.
In case you don't know, Rubicon territory is close to Sacramento.

That sounds like a good idea Kevin.

April sounds good, let me know the date. May be the 8th or 22nd of April. I wouldn't want to go on the 15th because some people may still be working on their taxes.

Yes, ice house roud off 50, 12 miles to icehouse resort and then a mile and a half past that to the boat ramp parking area/camp ground. Chains aren't required for 4x4's but I have a set that will fit your tires if you need them. Chains for my tires are $150 so I am going to risk it. Last time I checked though chains were not required.

Okay, it looks like Stockton is the most central location and the best place to meet if we want to caravan. I will be leaving here at about 1:00 pm and should be hitting Stockton at about 3 or 3:30. I think channel 10 will be a good CB channel to monitor. If you can't make it then, the directions to where camp will be set up are as follows:
Highway 50 east. 9 miles past Pollock Pines, turn Left on Icehouse Rd. It is approx 12 miles to Icehouse Resort. 1.5 miles past that, turn right on to road that leads to Icehouse lake boat ramps(first right). You can't miss it.

How bout it ba, you up?!?!?!?

What a COOL run. Only breakage was a parking brake cable. Note to self, don't try to put on parking breake while articulating suspension. We had to pull the stucker arround a little, but we were assured that next trip he will be lifted and geared. Can't wait for the next trip.

Yea, I can't wait.

No more stucker for me!

5.5" lift kit should be waiting for me when I get home - then to figure out if everything is there! Next time, I'll be 5.5", 33x12.5", 4.56, locker front/trutrac rear, and a winch!
