Jeff,
If you could swing your bus and trailer by Northern Utah and pick up Grampa's Jeep, I'd be in. Wink
I hope you find some more jeeps to play with.
 I am really wanting to hit some trails somewhere now that my rig is up and running, but most of the local stuff here is gated off now for the winter.

jpet, I think a couple of us are going to come up see you Saturday. I know we have swapped lines a couple times, but I don’t think we ever met so I been working on getting one of the fellow Hoosiers to ride up, say hello. We aren’ going to stay long, expect to be there between 1230 -1300hrs and will only be able to look around a hour or so but hoping perhaps some of the others might also come put even if their jeep can’t come along.

I understand Saturday is customer appreciation day and that there may be some BBQ and other goodies available. We plan on picking up a toy for their kids christmas drive also going on that day, and the half price ticket with a toy is great incentive.

Hope to see you there, believe I got your number.

Just keep me posted. I know for sure that BAM BAM and a JK will be there. The other JK is on the fence. I've got another friend who wants to come but I don't have a seat yet so if anyone's bringing a jeep with an open seat, let me know.

Since I don't have my Jeep together or an open seat, I hope you have fun tearing up the trails.
You bet I'll be "finishing" my Jeep this month!

Nick,

Since you've been there and concidering the recent weather, are the trails going to be mostly muddy? or not. I'm trying to decide what tires to use.

Why don't you call them and ask about the trail conditions?  Phone 765-762-2981

I'm gonna run NDTs. Probably take the chains with me to do some experimentation.

Jpet,

I believe the ground is going to be on the harder side, it's been cold with a lack of rain and snow. In the early fall is where it's all mucky mixed with leaves, and that's a bit challenging. It's up to you on tire chains. They might be good for hill climbing.

Looks like we are leaving at 7 (God's time) so we will be there around 10:15.  Sounds like the rocks and dirt are all mixed together so chains might not be so good.  I'll bring them along.  If anyone is showing up with a jeep or ATV, let me know please.

No jeep so we aren’t expecting to ride, and don’t have a lot of time but planning to be over about 12:30 just to meet you, say hello and maybe grab some lunch if you can. We haven’t been there either so will have a little look around, perhaps get a couple pics for the page.
