Given the choices above, Windrock/Coal Creek OHV sounds the best to me. It's gonna be a hike for just about anyone in the UC (well Landtank too:)). Wish we had more time to explore other options, but this needs to be nailed down quick - 6-7 weeks away now.

Windrock/Coal Creek is fine with me.
 
Works for me, been wanting to go there for a long time. When? How does the end of August sound?
 
I volunteer to come... haven't missed an OTMT yet!
 
The Windrock Park Campground does not allow alcohol , here is an alternative campground about 2 miles down the road that does and they are less expensive: Home

That's what I was talking about. Glad you posted the link, I couldn't find it. Missy, the campground host, knows her stuff. Nobody enters that camp that she doesn't have an eye on. Stick to her rules and all is good!
 
I am going to be there! And I've volunteered to lead this thing up. I'm gonna contact the windrock campground to get us somewhere where we can enjoy our adult libations. Watch this thread for more information over the weekend.
 
We have a few members of STLCA that are planning on being at Windrock that weekend, let me know if we can help you with anything.
 
I found an article in an old "Four Wheeler" mag about Coal Creek/Windrock
It States:

Popular obstacles: Rattle rock (an extreme rock garden built by Rattle rock 4WD club), Trail 21 (a gnarley trail with some serious hillclimbs) and Atomic Ridge ( built by the Atomic City 4WD club).

!

There have been several changes since that article. Back then the park was run by Windrock ATV Club. They had a falling out with the company and the Mining company took over management of the area. The prices have gone up and are per person including passengers. They have made a number of improvements but some of the trails went away when they expanded the gas wells a couple of years ago. I have not ridden there in several years but people tell me that it is still a great area. The high ground has a large number of windmills.

Updated information for OTMT

Camping:
The campground is being changed to Windrock Campground (as referred by Roger - DSLTOY) The phone number is 865-435-3939. Please call Missy and tell her that you are with the Upstate Cruisers for August 20-23. She will place us all together.

Specifics:
- $20/night/tent - this includes 2 people
- $3/night/extra person in a tent. In other words if your have 5 in your tent, it would be an extra $9/night.
- Quiet time is 11PM - 7AM. No radios/music after 11. You can still sit around the campfire and BS and drink, but no radios. Also, if you need to move your truck during quiet time, that's cool, just don't let it idle.
- Bring your beer, as this place is Alcohol-friendly.
- Bunk houses are available for those who are less daring, but I don't know how far they would be from our group site.

Food:
As Steve said, this will be a back-to-basics UC event. We can't provide food for an evening, so please plan accordingly. We are looking at doing a big ol' pot of Rotel one evening.

T-shirts:
Are you all interested in doing a shirt for this event? I have an idea for a shirt in army green, but want to know if anyone wants a shirt.

Misc:
- As this is back-to-basics, we won't be having a raffle.
- Since no raffle and no food night, we also are going to leave the big UC tent at home. Please bring your own chairs and pop up shelters if you want manufactured shade.

Post up if you're coming. As we get closer, we'll put together groups for traveling there.

Thanks:beer:

Roger, do you all want to join us at the campground? Maybe lead a few trail rides?
