Surprise Lake, soon?

[AttoirRE]

I hear the snow is mostly gone up there. Anybody want to head out sometime soon? Hopin' I don't have to go with Jeeps this time around.

what's a recommended setup to get up there? hundy with 285's and running boards asking for trouble?

 

[AttoirRE]

You'll get pinstriped a bit (i do too, I just don't care.) and those running boards are gonna be damaged / missing when you leave. I bet you'd make it up / down though.

Hey Joe,

Do you have a set date yet? I have the next two weekends busy but I'll be free after that.

 

[AttoirRE]

Nope, down for whenever really. Always off on Sundays, usually off Saturdays.

My 80 needs an alignment still and some front brake pads and Ill be down to go! I might even mount up my rear tire carrier while I'm working on it. How about the weekend of May 10th or 11th?

 

[AttoirRE]

Let's do it! I'm down for either day, maybe a slight preference for the 10'th. (Sat)

I would be interested in going! Me and cousin have been planning a trip to there for a couple months because when we tried a few months back we got stopped by snow. I'm in a 97 80 on 37s and he's in a 91 80 on 35s! You guys doing a day trip or staying over night?

I'd love to go, but.....my new project rig will probably need a bit more work. Brakes, possibly tires...a winch....etc. The lockers all work and it drives fine, just not sure if it's trail worthy at this point.

Sounds like a blast though! I've been up there in a brand J a few times.

 

[AttoirRE]

I plan on doing a day trip. You're welcome to come Apounder. I'm on 32's with one locker and pretty confident I'll make it so I doubt it will be a challenge for you guys.

Some things came up and looks like I cant make it this weekend. Too many things going on in town for me.
