Going to take a ride to the pines the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Might be trying two places that I haven't been to before... so it'll be a bit of an excursion.
If anyone wants to join in, post up.

How challenging are the Pines? I've never been, but I am curious. Unfortunately, I'm still at stock ride height, but I do have OEM armor!

You don't even need armor to ride in the pines.... its really not challenging at all. Hardest part is avoiding deep mud & water
Fun trip today... the XK never ceases to amaze me how it can climb with such ease; i basically idled up stuff that should have given somewhat of a challenge..
I'll have to wait for mike to upload the pictures and videos though because I didnt get to take any of my own.
Here's how the day started:
And here's how it ended:
No carnage...
Ok i have about 2 full posts worth of pictures coming... but wait till you see the videos
