Default A few off-roading pics

Some trails around Sunriver OR, on the Deschutes river.
I usually do these trails in a lifted, modified Landcruiser. But the GX did just fine. I could use a bit more clearance, skid plates etc.
Good thing I took off those running boards or they would have been toast.
Enjoy

Nice pics!

I cringe just looking at the branches coming within spitting distance of the side of your GX.

Thanks,

I was worring more about hitting my T-case or spare tire that I did not look at the branches. Protect the expensive stuff

No and I had no problem at all. This baby just wanted to climb and did not spin out.
