Dennis and I are registered, and Steve (brown diesel FJ60) hopes to have his new linked LS mini-truck ready (think he's on 40" MTRs), and possibly another buggy or capable mini in our group, so wouldn't mind tagging along with ya'all again on some moderate to heavy trails. Leastwise if it's a manageable sized group.

I'll be up to North Georgia Friday before, plan to arrive at Windrock to camp Monday/Tuesday, but will be in cabin #14 the rest of the week if you don't see us around the pavilion/camp.

excellent, was wondering if you guys were going to make it. I guess we're still ironing out our plans but I/we expect to be up there no later than Sunday afternoon.

The 4 of you and 2 or 3 of us make it a good sized group early in the week so should be able to cover some good trails.

Very few of you know me personally so this will not likely find me a solution, but I've exhausted every other option I could think of so I'm going to ask here as a last ditch effort for help...

I am flying in for GSMTR and have graciously been offered the use of a wheeler (with trailer) for the event, but I do not have the means to tow it from Atlanta to Windrock. Does anyone have a tow rig I could rent inexpensively or have any suggestions? (Sunday-Sunday)
 
Steve what is the wheeler?
 
Not ideal but If someone could get it to My place by May 12 I could haul it to Windrock

Thanks. I'll keep that option in mind but I think if I had a way to get the trailer out of the yard at all, I'd be able to get it all the way to the park most likely.
 
early in the week is looking pretty good as far as a good wheeling crowd, probably oughta start thinking trail priorities. Think I'll hit the FL crew up to see what they're thinking is since the Ga crew aint nowhere to be found online.
 
Who's coming from Georgia? Just you Ted?
 
My plan is Tues or Wed thru Friday. I don't know trail numbers, so I'll just follow and hopefully not break. Cadillac hill trail was fun but was a winch fest last year. Not sure that I'm interested in driving Walden Ridge - the pics/vids even make it look sketchy.

as of now it's me, John and Steve on Sunday. Later in the week Sidney (+ family), Tony (see above), Nick, Dave and Randy (Zuk buggy) are coming up for the duration. Aside from those guys I couldn't tell ya.

I was hoping to get a new guy up there but he's proving far less reliable than I'd hoped so gonna kick him to the curb.
