Let me tell you... Come december, Tahuya will be a mess. Most of the trails are mud bogs and Mud lake is crazy deep in the center. Someone posted a pick of a Cherokee sitting on 35's on a 6 inch long arm, and the thing was sunk to the hood.

I must have gotten lucky then. Last time I was out there in my old xj(4.5, 32s) I drove right through the middle of mud lake and it barely came up to my hood. Must have gotten alot deeper.

And Andrew, I need to trim my fenders before I wheel it. My tires rub driving through the parking lot at my apt lol.

lol yep, thats in rimrock, that hole was not playing around!! i eased into it and it just kept sinking, i dont think i ever hit the bottom of it before i stopped. We got a few holes like that in rimrock, in the wet season, dont try them!

Cant wait to have my snorkel and just give all these big holes hell! Gonna invest in some waders for those times, lol.

Its to bad we didnt get pics where bucks winch line broke, that hole also was rediculous. No water in it but coming out of it his front right tire was at least 4 feet off the ground. Its the hole where all you can see is his rooftop in the redo rimrock thread lol. nasty!

If you guys like the busy wild, you should come play in rimrock, it really is a good time!
