    I can usually make it about 8 hours with good traffic and a couple of pit stops.
    I'm actually coming up this weekend but the VX is getting dropped off for a head-to-toe inspection(!), so I'll be in some kind of a rental.

    Rental. Yuck. But it does make you appreciate the VX even more!

    I am currently trying to scout out some trails here in the sierra nevadas that are not too difficult to do without a lift, and that are not gated. The trail I tried out last weekend was pretty good up to the point where I turned around, but due to lots of rocks in the middle of it, I don't know about clearance with stock VXs. I also found out that the trail turns into one of the most difficult runs of the Rubicon(Fordyce Jeep trail) a little down the road, so maybe not such a great idea. I'll keep you guys posted with what I find. We'll pretty much have to stick to the Nevada side too, because I can't bring my rifle to California(those pinko commies) without getting an instant felony. I think the same goes for you Bart. I think the deal is that you can't have a detachable magazine if I remember correctly.
    The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.

    Sounds good. We still have Clint's trail to do also. That one would be nice to do for a whole day trip were we can bring lunches, etc.

    As for guns, I totally understand. I never bring anything over the border into Cali, and all of my rifles have detachable mags.

    Yeah, you need to! Nevada is a good state for gunners. I've never shot a 3.06.

    Well then all the more reason to get out there. Cari actually wants to get a concealed weapon permit so I will be looking into that and new handguns this summer.
