Yes. See post #88. We will be there wind, snow, rain, sleet, whatever.

Now you get to learn everything in bad weather when you will need the skillz the most. I bet that took a lot of phone calls to make happen

If you've got room, I'd sure appreciate the chance to go. I'll only be able to attend Saturday (Friday's date night).

It's been a while since I've done any serious wheeling, I went on the Moab Easter Jeep safari a few times about 20 years ago, but I've forgotten more than I've learned.

I've got a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and am eager to put it through it's paces. It is stock, but does have the off-road package, although I'm not sure the standard Michelin tires that Jeep calls all-terrain really are...

Thanks,
Dan

 

[sixstringsteve]

Thanks for getting me in, I look forward to meeting everyone and learning. Like I said, not too interested in rock crawling, I'm more of a scenic trails type of guy.

I do have a few questions:

I'm only going to be able to come out Saturday. Will the gate guards be there, or do I need to meet up with someone and caravan?

$20 (can't believe it's that cheap!) Cash or Check or prepay via paypal or something?

Should we bring any equipment (shovels, recovery straps, etc)? I've got a recovery strap that I bought years ago, never used it, but bought it after getting stuck once in the ZJ.

Thanks,
Dan

You can pitch a tent underneath the outdoor tent/awning at the park. That should at least keep you dry. Staying warm might be another story though...

 

[sixstringsteve]

please bring the following:

- $20 cash
- camp chairs
- warm clothing


If you have any of the following, we would love for you to bring it:

- collapsible table
- fire dish
- firewood

 

[SiRed91]

any other people in here taking a tent?

 

[sixstringsteve]

I'm guessing Mesha will take a tent. He took one last time and he said it was fine. If my truck didn't have sleeping quarters built in, I'd have no issues sleeping in a tent. Kurt will no doubt be sleeping in his roof top tent.

 

[jeeper]

I will be driving out in my car Friday, driving it home to my nice WARM BED (and wife:greg and then drive the truck with jeep out Saturday am.

 

[sixstringsteve]

I sleep better in the back of my truck than I do in my own bed. Go figure.

 

[mbryson]

I'll be in my rtt

 

[Sawtooth]

It's not even cold for this time of year!Wooses.
But seriously, I have 3 huge packs of link sausage in my freezer if you want em they are yours.

 

[huntinkid]

i will be able to make it bright and early sat!! due to complications with getting work off. see ya all there!

 

[n0rth]

Hey all,
Based on the weather and amount of snow at home I will be sitting this one out I hope to make the next one.

J.W.

 

[sixstringsteve]

bummer. Thanks for letting us know. FWIW, the snow is only in the mountains down here in Lehi.

 

[SiRed91]

No snow to speak of in tooele or SLC either, I hope though, that we get a storm of some sort to make it interesting on saturday LOL

 

[sixstringsteve]

Marc and Scott will make it as "interesting" as you want on the obstacle course There are some insane lines there.

 

[SiRed91]

Don't scare me off, Im a n00b to wheeling LOL
