Nice pics! Looks like a good time. Still pisses me off how that new line to the left was cut into the hillside by bitches who couldn't go up the main route.

Yea, the right side is all traction all the way, I think people just psych themselves out at the bottom when they could easily make it. If you made the rest of the canyon you can make that hill.

Bad place for a heavy spare tire, way up high on the Gladiator. The last thing you want to do is make the vehicle top-heavy!

My thought exactly, not to mention they make the aerodynamics of a brick even worse. I hate lifting my spare up the 4 feet to the rear tire carrier cannot imagine 12 feet in the air is any less fun.

That's one of the main reasons why I pull the rooftop tent off when we're not camping. That, and I prefer not to have the tent on.
Nice! Kinda bummed we missed this.

We ran down to Vegas to see where we got married 28 years ago. The Little White Chapel. Still there. We then went down to Boulder City, Lake Mead and on to Flagstaff. Also saw some wild democrats. Man I will tell you this diesel is a beast. It pulls like crazy. 80 mph like nothing and will still put you in the seat up to 100. I averaged 27mpg in the 60-65 areas and 21-23 in the 75-80 areas. Just amazing.

End of the road.
Actually, the end of a lot of roads… Still a lot of cleanup to be done. Me and my little electric saw were not gonna put a dent in the amount of fallen trees this year.
Up towards Cherry Lake, Tuolumne River.

Sorry, that is Anthony Chapel located in Garvan Gardens just south of town. It's a really pretty peaceful place to spend a few hours.

Saline Salt Tram, via Cerro Gordo and Swansea road.
Since the owner started a YouTube channel Cerro Gordo (old mine/ghost town) is getting pretty popular), easy drive up a maintained gravel road. lots of vehicles coming and going. Us and the tag along Dodge took the Swansea road out from there toward Saline Salt Tram, we didn't see another vehicle on that trail all day. There's a sign on the Cerro Gordo side that says "Road washed out in 2.5 miles, limited turn around opportunities. Travel not advised!" We laughed and kept going.
Saline Salt tram is the only place I know of where you can see the floor of Death Valley (Saline) and the peak of Mt. Whitney standing in one spot and turning around.
Keeping to my theme of anyone with a pulse and 4 wheel drive, we took along a Dodge Cummins, mega cab, long bed battleship. It's about 70 yards long and has about 1000 acres of exposed rocker panels. Guy who drives it has some experience and did well as rough as the trail has gotten. Rocker panels survived, a headlight, mirror, and front fender didn't fare as well.
6 hours on the trail and temps of 66 degrees at the top made it a good day trip.
