Summary

Join Tyler, Jimmy, on today's episode of the SnailTrail4x4 Podcast, as they discuss California shutting down all the parks and not allowing any sort of fires while you're outside. Even though they are shutting down camping due to fires, we even have new fires starting up, and one of them is right near the world-famous rubicon. But on some positive news, Jimmy did get to go camping before the shutdowns and he also bought a tow trailer.
