I live 10 minutes from Jefferson City and Tizer Lakes trail head. Heading to Overland Expo tomorrow. Would love to join you guys, but my 40 is couple of months from completion.

 

[Paul]

I have plenty of room at my place if someone needs to drop off their tow rig. I also always have beer in the shop frig!

as of now it looks promising

Let’s do it!! Count myself and my 6 year old boy in. 40 is still a work in progress. @rkymtnflyfisher can tow me home

 

[90WT]

I think every 40 is a work in progress. I mean, who’s ever done with mods?

This is gonna be a blast!

 

[90WT]

Any interest in camping the night before/after?
I'm guessing a 9:30-10 am meetup will give folks time to head out Saturday morning from all corners of the State. Plan to leave for trailhead at 10. How does that sound for everyone?
The easiest meetup spot is probably the Town Pump in Boulder.

I’m still working out details but if I do make it over there I’m in.

Anyone know the fishing situation?

 

[rkymtnflyfisher]

How gnarly is the trail? I don't mind wheeling my rig a little but I have no desire to do any damage.

Are there decent bypass routes on the harder obstacles?

Reading the trail description has me wondering.

I'm on a 4" lift, open diffs, worn out 33x10.5 M/Ts. Stock drivetrain otherwise.

You'll be fine with that setup. The only hard parts have bypasses. There are trees but plenty wide for a 40.


I'm not sure if I'm going to make it to this at this point

Thanks!

The Boulder River just southeast of town is fun. Easy wading, small water. Farther south, it is irrigated (slow, warm) and less access. I'm not sure about the lake situation near Elkhorn and such.

 

[90WT]

Bumpity Bump. We're just about 2 weeks out.
Who's got their rig in order? Any last minute repairs for the trip? I got a box of brake parts staring at me from the workbench.

 

[finally]

Kids have a sports event that weekend now. I won’t make the ride unfortunately.

 

[rkymtnflyfisher]

I'm still planning to be there, I will have to reach out next Wednesday to find someplace to camp. Currently in Austin.

 

[pigmony]

I'm planning on it. I'm hoping I get my new fan shroud completed and installed before it happens.

 

[3_puppies]

I'm not sure if I am working yet, it is weather dependent

 

[Dave406]

It looks promising that I will be able to make it. Also, I can’t remember is there a spot to park a trailer at the town pump?

I think there's plenty of room to park a trailer at the Town Pump. Fairgrounds on the South end of town could be an option too if you don't like Town Pump.

This could end up being a good sized group!
