Save the dates ladies and gents. Charles will fill in the details if any are decided upon. Otherwise it will just be a free for all with grilled meat, as usual.

Complete details on this event will be posted in August. With the pent-up demand for all things “outside” this notice is designed to give those who plan to attend and early opportunity to book lodging or camp sights.

I plan on attending, I know it’s the same week as Logan’s run , but I have a cabin in anyone wants to go.

A couple of quick notes ……
* There is no formal registration process (we don’t require attendees to purchase anything other than park permits).
* We don’t inspect your vehicle (it’s up to you to make sure it’s up to the task )
* This is a “family friendly” event (your spouse, kids and well behaved pets are welcomed).
* Owning a 70 Series IS NOT REQUIRED to attend however owning a Land Cruiser is.
…….. MORE INFO TO FOLLOW ……..

@lumbee1 you dont need a 70

 

[Gun Runner 5]

There are several “non-70’s” in part of the Saturday lineup.

You've got that wrong. I do need a 70 but I can attend this event with an 80.

You can attend this event with a 40, 55, 70, 80, 100, & 200 Series as well as the entire lineup of Prado’s.

The majority of this information has been covered in the thread but here are the cliff notes.…….

* We don’t have a registration period and there are no tickets to be purchased.
* The only known expense is a park pass from Windrock.
* We don’t have automobile inspections (it’s up to you to make sure your Land Cruiser is up to the task).
* Windrock offers both cabins and camping areas although the cabins may already be booked.
* For the group that arrives on Thursday, which is normally the majority, we plan to meet at a restaurant in nearby Oak Ridge.
* We routinely depart the Windrock parking lot at 9:00am both Friday and Saturday mornings. (You will need to have purchased your park permits PRIOR to 9:00am).
* The communication of choice will most likely be GMRS. (on a side note, once in the mountains, your cell phone is basically a paper weight due to spotty coverage.
* Recognizing that we have attendees with little to no off-road experience while others only like the hard stuff, we offer different trails that cater to your level of experience.
* Much like the majority of other organized events you’ll be required to sign a liability waiver.

A little more than a month to go …….

 

[Gun Runner 5]

September is finally here and we’re just a few weeks away.

The great 70 Series pilgrimage is right around the corner.

Unfortunately I’m going to have to bail out ,was taking the 73 through the car wash. roller stopped turning and pushed the truck backwards. Bending the wipers and concaving the windshield. But somehow it’s not their fault, it’s the trucks.
