Jeff,
If you could swing your bus and trailer by Northern Utah and pick up Grampa's Jeep, I'd be in. 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.
