Elherbinator Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Going to be wheeling next weekend. Thinking of doing Barrett Lake in the Tahoe area if another couple vehicles want to go. I have never run the trail, but I hear it is pretty tough. From what I know from second hand accounts it will be as tough as the tougher sections of the rubicon, so vehicle requirements should probably be the same. So 33†tires, a locker, recovery gear, and armor etc.The trail isn’t long, maybe 4 miles and should be about 4 hours. My plan is to roll in Saturday, chill at the lake and do lake things Sunday, and roll out Monday. It is kind of short notice, so if nobody else can make it I’ll probably do a trail that’s a little easier or that I’m familiar with.

RobertDingli Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Hey Eric. I’d be interested in taking DiscoStu out for its first run but not anything as serious as you are suggesting. I’ll try to get the rear bumper finished and sliders on beforehand. Let me know if there’s a milder option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elherbinator Posted September 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Ok, we shall see in the next few days. I’ve had Barrett on the want list of trails for a few years now, so woukd really like to check it out, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it will be hard for anybody else to join given the short notice, difficulty of the trail, and 3 day plan. My backup was going to be the Red Mountain OhV area mear Shaver. Probably Strawberry or Mirror Lake. Only shitty thing about those trails is the fact that there aren’t a lot of camping spots, so rolling in on Saturday can be a little risky. But it is late in the season and may not be an issue Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Wood Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 I'll be joining this trip. This one has been on my bucket list. The guys over on the Snail Trail pod cast (Jimmy and Tyler) ran this trail last weekend and talked about it today on their Podcast. I hope the fishing's good.

Andrew Wood Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Looks like Eric can't make this run and I do not want to lead this hard of a trail that I have not run before, so it's sadly canceled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
