New owner's (Bob&Liza) want firm numbers 1 week before the event. If your coming throw up a post and let us know by 5/12/13(no later).
If you plan on camping- If you want a fancy site-How many in your party-how many days-or just wheeling the day.

Also this ride is for Gretchen's only. Mud season doesn't end till 5/22 this year.
Camp, drink(not on the trails) and watch other folks mangle their poop if you don't have anything worthy of wheeling Gretchen's.

Property offers camping and wheeling on site. Property offers extreme to moderate/difficult trails.
Campground is carry in carry out, meaning the trash you make is the trash you take.
Bathhouse on site, be aware it is rustic but it gets the job done.
Rates have changed from last year, please see below.

2013 CAMPING RATES
Electric Sites: $20 pp/pn
Non-Electric Grove Sites: $15 pp/pn
Field Sites: $10 pp/pn
Members Only

Plan on Camping 2 nights.
2 People
Non Electric Grove site
 
Last year we ran Gretchen's and local trails, I didn't get a chance to see outback. Just saw a short clip of Kina flopped over on YouTube. Are there bypass or is this wheeling out of my 4runner's league?
 
I'm going to go out on a ledge here and say your not going to make it very far.
 
if you dont mind body damage go for it. It WILL happen. esp with the spring slop.[/QUOTE]


From the looks of it I don't think I can get far enough in to get any damage. Lol
 
I've taken my fjc through some of the main trails running 35" with a rear locker, not sure what you have but I had fun, wet or dry.
 
Strong maybe, have to see if they will let my off.
Camping 2 nights one person, grove.
 
I'll be up Friday night and staying till sunday morning.
non-electric grove site - 2 nights 1 person / possibly have 1 additional on sat night
 
my wife and i will plan on being there sunday, no camping, two jeeps, i just put my membership for the two of us in the mail with a check
 
Planning on wheeling Sunday for sure. Possibly Saturday and camping Saturday night...will know for sure in a few days.
 
Some folks were at LMFT last weekend. It's very dry.

There are plenty of legal Class 6 roads open now in our area. Runs started last weekend. They range from stock to modified.

Not sure where the 5/22 mud date comes from. Each town has their own dates.

IMHO, you don't just have to run Gretchen's to participate.

Unfortunately, Minnie is still under the weather, but I'm willing to go off the F&F property with anyone willing and able to follow my modded FJC.

5/22 is what the NEA is saying. I was at the meeting this past Saturday and that still seems to be what their going with.

I also asked if there was an opening day for LMFT in a thread and was told 5/22.

I'll have more information on this after the weekend. I volunteered to be the new liaison for the NEA and LMFT which should help with these sort of conflicts.

There are a large number of Class 6 roads in NH that are now open, trust me. Every town has it's own dates, but most are open by the 15th. There are run opportunities for people that don't want to get hammered out back at Gretchen's. On the other hand, I heard G's has been watered down a bit on some trails.
