Lakes Basin 4wd Roads 13-Jul-06

- Never did get the boats in the water, but we went places we didn't belong....this is a longer video (about 6:30), and somewhat indulgent, but just so you know: It was harder (and more fun) than it looks! I am surprised I didn't break something, and I still feel lucky to have avoided being ridiculed by those guys with their gigantic 4x4 monsters. I did come home with two VERY bashed hubcaps, and probably used at least 10K miles of drivetrain life.
