Getting the Wheeling Fever
we are all heading out to Hollister Hills today and anyone who can come please do!

Trying out the rig after finishing lots of work on it and want to be sure that it will make it to Panamint Valley next weekend!

Hollister was Great Fun!

We didn't go up Truck Hill as it was badly rutted.

We did go up Five Fingers Hill. It was rutted at the top and we got stuck bad until i switched on the air locker <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

A jeep right behind me saw the rut and decided not to try the hill! What a wimp! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

1st who is 'We'? And 2nd maybe a little more notice would be good. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Glad your rig ran well after all the mods. Also what kind of rig and what mods did you complete?

Panamint Valley huh? Have a good trip! Would love to see photos if you have the time.

Am kinda getting to the point where I miss Hollister. It's been quite a while now since I've been there. Ray, when you finally install your skid plates are we going to do a Hollister run to test them out? I wouldn't mind a run after a good rain storm. :-)

Most cell phones these days (up to 3 yrs old) will have at least a 2-3 MP camera, better than most cameras of 5 years ago, good for "8 x 10s" of old.

Most 3-4 yr old phones you cannot get batteries for ("planned obsolescence").

Give us a break and quit the spamming. If you have got pics, then post what you have if it was such good day.

what does " spamming " mean ?

When i take a picture with my camera on my phone and send it to my computer; the size of the photo is comparable to your avatar. i have tried to enlarge the pictures but they look horrible.

here is an example of photo off my phone

maybe i can borrow a friend's camera for the weekend?

Small photos are better than no photos. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
