Costs for this years event are the same as the last 2 years. 200 Canadian pesos gets you 3 nights accommodations and 3 square meals for the Saturday and Sunday.

Well for that my friend we can accommodate. We'll need 75 smackers for the same treatment less the bed to rest your head. Otherwise the 200 should be paid for anyone else joining shotgun as well.

On the Jeep,
I think if this person is a friend and guest of Dean's I say we allow a Jeep to come, as an exception, but not a rule. Bottom line, we are a group of friends first, and a friend of a friend is welcome.
It's a tricky situation because we're a TLC club, so we should be sticking to Toyota vehicles; and exceptions could become slippery slopes, what next a NISSAN PATROL?! THE HORROR
- JOKES. I think as long as we bill the event for TLC, we can discuss exceptions as they arise, if they arise in the future.
I am of the opinion the Jeep can come and show us that I-6 engine I'm so fond of.

By any chance does the name of the "lonely lubricator living luxuriously" begin with an "L"? Because that could be LEO!
And yes, Scrappy (BJ70) is on his way up there tomorrow.
Hate to say it but I suppose I could be considered a lonely lubcritator.
Totally jealous. Looks like a great group, and I imagine running the skeggy country is fun in the winter.
If it eases the view, maybe the Jeeper should sport a zip-tied Toyota badge for the weekend?
Lonely Lubricators of the OCC? Spin-off club?

For this event I will have "new" tires and if the stars align, and I mean really align, a "new" winch.
I would say good recovery points are more important than the winch. IF you haven't put any recovery points on since I saw you last, then you ABSOLUTELY need to sort that out as the ones that were on there were barely on there and REALLY dangerous.
So Tyler, $200/per person, even if we are sharing a room?
My thoughts on the Jeep (for what it's worth), I don't really care what you drive as long as it will be reliable. If you like going into the bush and aren't a total ass, come on out!

yup $200 a person even if you share.
Dangerous recovery points are dangerous, even solid ones can end badly. I know this because I often get videos from South America and the Middle east of a broken strap leading to a clevis to the face.

Cost for the event is actually close to 340 per person. We charge 200 cause we’re so nice. You and I are in the same boat as well have our own room for two adults. Your missus won’t have to share with anyone but you. I didn’t want to make a 3rd teir price for couples sharing a room was all. Complicated logistics.I would say good recovery points are more important than the winch.

Hey all, the Jeep guy here, I certainly don't want to step on any Toyota toes, just looking to get some use out of my rig. The Bambino has
talked up your events many times, sounds like a blast. If I had been better informed would have probably went the Toyota way, but the price was right and first rig to boot, so total newbie as well, so probably some good entertainment value as well.

Makes sense to me. Will have the cash to you shortly from my wife's email.
ah s*** man jump in, no toes to be stepped on.
No stepping on toes, I’m a reformed Jeep guy myself.
I would recommend tires with tread and good recovery points.
If I go I can’t wait to see what this Jeep Compass can do on the trails - come on first Jeep joke!!
But seriously no Nissan Patrols
