Linked-up with some friends in the area and did a couple more trails, here's a few pics from Cattail Cove/Rovey's Needle. The mostly stock Xterra did amazing so I played on all the optional lines worry free having another vehicle present:

Took a meandering way back to Colorado from Lake Havasu, I don't remember all the trails we drove over the course of the trip but here are some pictures from Backway to Crown King and Turkey Creek. Turkey Creek was a close second favorite of the trip:

Long...30ish miles I think. That trail has just about every type of terrain you could imagine - creek crossings, shelf road switchbacks, a couple of 'crawl' obstacles not counting all the optional stuff, scenery, history, and unfortunately lots of memorials and tributes to people that perished along the route. I didn't realize how many lives have been lost on that trail till after the fact, very sobering. Glad I had the opportunity to drive it, definitely recommend it.

Very cool, it's on my to-do list this year so hopefully we'll get the time to run it, thanks!

I'll send some PMs, don't want to sidetrack Max's build thread, and thanks for the thoughts.
