MOst of the FS roads we went on came off of HWy 76 west of Clayton, or Persimmon Road. They were in the Tallulah River and Coleman River area. Tallulah River has two campgrounds that are state owned if you are looking for a place to ride and stay.


Sorry about the pics Dave, I will post mine as soon as I get a spare moment, it has been a busy week.

NY-Vmax-Joe, I hear you might be looking for a lift, I have most of the components that you would need for a 3" Teraflex lift, P.M. me if your interested, they are used, but they would be a good price and I wouldn't mind doing the install, I have gotten pretty good at these lifts, ask BCHBOY1206.

I live up in the area we went riding this past weekend, if anybody has questions P.M. me and I will try to answer them if I can.

Yeah, all I can say is Chris is a real stand up guy and he did a great job installing my lift, bumpers and spacers. He donated his time, tools and knowledge just to help out someone he didn't even know. BTW Chris after my performance on Hightower I am looking to upgrade, nudge, nudge....

Slippery: Thanks for posting the links for the forest service I appreciate it.

Damn! I wish I wasn't committed to family stuff every time you guys go out. Hopefully it'll calm down after the holidays. These roads look like fun.

Does any body know who owns the White YJ in the pics... I believe that may be my old Jeep.
