    In this video we explore the Toioyabe National Forest which is located in the Eastern Sierra Mountain Range. Armando and I take on Kavanaugh Ridge in the snow. We find a beautiful frozen over alpine lake and struggle finding a way to the top of the ridge because of the snow. Will we make it to the top of the ridge or will we be forced to turn around? Thanks for watching.

    Amazing video again. Those views at the top of the crest were epic. Don’t underestimate the Tesla guys. I’m telling you, they’ll surprise you. Once I get my skid plates I’ll be more adventurous with mine but with about 10” of ground clearance it’ll get to some pretty decent spots. I’ll definitely be getting out more later this year. My car doesn’t look like my profile pic anymore. It was on bags and 22’s. Now it’s lifted with methods and BFG K02’s. Still a long ways to go but should be fun.
