Well about a week now.
Its hard to tell from the boards but I think I can expect about 50+ rigs.
Raffle
We have some more stuff for the raffle.
Some kind of "keep you cool" neck wrap ties, that x-factors wife makes. She will also be selling them! Maybe she should post up more info…
The Cliffs will be throwing in t-shirts, stickers (for the fjc guys
), hoodies.
Of course Ill be throwing in the Warn M8000 NIB.
There will be opportunities to buy additional tickets through out the event. Last year we had the raffle on Sunday morning, and that worked out well.
Camping
I hear the camping site is coming along nicely. It was mowed last week and Tom says its looking great. Plenty of shade. We are also going to get 2 port-o-pots for the ladies (both female and male ladies). Like I said earlier be prepared for a tow rig possibly not getting to the camp site. I really doubt it will be an issue (especially looking at the forecast (DRY!!!)). And Tom said that he took his e350 2wd van up there with no problem. The camping will be primitive. No electric, no showers, there’s a river, but no showers.
Breakfast
There will be the usual sausage, bacon, eggs, pancakes on Saturday and Sunday morning for 5$/person. If you arent camping and want some breakfast PLEASE don’t show up at 9am wanting breakfast! Arrive around 8am, especially if you want to wheel with a group. Though im sure the breakfast will be open after 9am.
Trails.
Trail #1 (easy. fine for stockers) is, according to tom, in the best shape ever. He drove his E350 2wd van through the whole trail (im sure in about 5min) with no issues or damage. So for the guys worried about damage…don’t be.
Easy intermediate I recommend a good AT, and a little experience. (a locker would make life easier)
Intermediate. Sliders, a locker, MT’s. expect a little body damage.
Difficult. Sliders, lockers, MT’s, Winch, Expect Body damage.
This year will not be as structured as last year. After breakfast on sat we will have a little drivers meeting then there will be trail leaders to take groups out. They will be staggered and there will likely be groups moving through all day, so you should be able to find people to hop on with if you or your group don’t feel comfortable running around solo.
BTW normal passenger rates apply. $5 per passenger. I didn’t post that up top….Ive got too many balls to juggle right now. Plus Im best man to my brother and 18 of us leaving for the Bachelor party tomorrow in Vegas. Ill be back Monday. But I will have my laptop with me so feel free to contact me.
I think that just about sums it up for now.
