Default Red Lake/Coyote Lake CEN CAL Run 8-28-10

This run was really fun and challenging. Having a stock 2 dr. JK I always get worried about what trails I can attempt. Having 3 other modified JK's on the trail with me it seems to calm the nerves. Bondsy, Castor07jk & 07Crawler all joined me for some Sunday crawling.

Red Lake and Coyote lake are located in the Sierra Nevada's just north of Fresno CA. They are on the same trail but Red is the easier lake to get to. After a couple hours of crawling I parked my JK just before reaching Red Lake knowing that I was going to jump in one of the modified JK's to finish out the trail. Here are some of my pics of the trip...

Heading up at 7am

Airing down and disconnecting my X
