Looks like a fun day. Where have your Xmas lights gone? Thought you'd bedazzled the rack.
Where'd y'all go?
This was all around Brown's Camp which is in the Tillamook State Forest between Portland and the Pacific Ocean. It's decent. When it is really good is when it snows -- then it's a 5x degree of difficulty as you cannot see all of the stumps and it's quite challenging. It's in an area that the forestry svc has (tragically?) recently clearcut in sections, so ... it's a bit different.
The fairie lights were acquired immediately after the run.

Someone I know absolutely COVERED his Audi S5 in Christmas lights. It was so bright, the local news interviewed him and told him it was illegal.
@GavinC Great pictures. Looks like you had a blast. Your Defender reminds me of my 2020 HSE. Congrats! December 31, 2020 in Texas Hill Country Everyone loved the Defender
@nashvegas Nice Defender. 110 or 130? Silicon Silver? What’s your trim and spec? Have you been happy with your’s and any issues?
2020 Defender 110 X, Eiger Grey/Black on 33’s w 1.5” rod lift - with a winch and bullbar on the front. Very happy with it, small issues only really, nothing I’d describe as major. (Heated steering wheel died, rear quarter window loose and replaced, turbo in/out coolant lines replaced, and a few TSB’s/recalls addressed)

Why did your turbo coolant lines need to be replaced? Were they leaking? If so, was it a pinhole leak? My P300 always smells like coolant after you drive it for a little bit, but there are no visible leaks anywhere in the engine bay and the reservoir is always at the max fill line. Another theory is maybe it could be a tiny leak in the turbo coolant lines, and it'd make sense you wouldn't see anything leaking because the heat from the turbo would quickly evaporate the coolant.
