I just got back from a 4th of July trip out in the Eastern Sierras in CA. Went from Bishop 4,100' elevation to Coyote Flats top ridge 10,000', explored around with lots of elevation changes between 8,000' to 11,100', through Sugarloaf, dropped back into Big Pine with a total trip of 54 miles from full tank in Bishop to Big Pine to fill up 14 gallons. I averaged 3.86 miles per gallon.

This isn't my video, but we did this all the way through to the other end. We passed the part where they turned back at 27:30 mark. Granted I was the only one that made it through without assistance, and I had to pull others through.

That looks fun. Nor Cal is super nice and at 10'k feet its 20F cooler.

I'd like to show that vid to all the Toyota overlanding fan bois on reddit ha-ha j/k. One of those rocks looks pretty tall, I may have wanted sliders for it. Did you brush or scrape at all?

My skid plates and sliders saw a lot of action. There are a few rocks hiding in the middle of the trail in bushes.
