2nd Annual Chicago Toyota Jamboree @ The Cliffs July 25, 26, 27

2nd Annual Chicago Toyota Jamboree

at
The Cliffs Insane Terrain Offroad Park
Marseilles Il
July 25, 26, 27
The Cliffs Insane Terrain

Rates

$35/vehicle for the 1st day. Any additional days will only be $10/vehicle.

This is cheaper than a normal weekend at the cliffs!! And it includes a BBQ on saturday night.

The snack shack lady will be doing breakfast at the cliffs on saturday morning. $5 gets you eggs, sausage, pancakes.....the usual stuff.

Last year was great success with about 65 trucks over the course of the weekend.

This will be open to ALL Toyota 4x4's (mini's, cruisers,fjc's...) But of course anyone who wants to wheel is welcome.

Friday: Setup camping, meet and greet, free roam wheeling.

Saturday: Meet in the lot at 9am for a drivers meeting, guided trail runs, free roam, BBQ.

Sunday: Free roam wheeling.

Last years raffle was huge and everyone stepped up huge! this year looks like it will be bigger!


CAMPING

Camping at the Cliffs, in the park, $10 per site/rig, no hook up.
Camping will be up in the park at a private grass camp site with access to the road.

Some pics from last year

Im in. Is there going to be a night run? Not like my truck is capable of probably doing the run but might be cool to jump into one that is capable.

This should be another great event! From expert to first timers, all will have fun.
I highly recommend attending, even if you just wanted to ride along. There will be some open seats available on each day.

New trail definately rocks, id love to run up it again when its just a little bit dryer. I think the old girl still has some life left in her, but if she does let go ive got a couple spares. Can't wait to see the video.

I never saw that vid very nice.

One thing about last year was way too many people on #1 at the same time this year those groups will be split up and sent down more advanced/fun trails.

About a month out now.

I need to get a rough idea of how many people I will have and for what.

So post up if you plan to attend, what days, camping?

I'll be there regardless, but I really hope it's dry this year. I plan on camping.

Just got back from the Cliffs and we picked out a camp gound. It will be up on the bluffs. There is plenty of shade a killer view. The Area will be off limits during the weekend to eliminate ATV traffic, and keep down the dust. It may however be difficult to get your tow rig up there depending on the weather. But unless we have major down poors and your tow rig is 2wd or on high way tires it shouldnt be a problem. Of course if it is you can park the tow rigs and trailers in the lot if you would like. I also plotted out some rare trails for the event that I will lead (12 & 13).
