East coast 4runner jamboree is the 22nd - 24th. I'll be headed up to that. Y'all should check it out!

 

[Devilmans Hand]

do you have a link for that one?
my google-fu is off and i can only find 2011 and older links

* found one
clicky here 3rd Annual YOTATECH Rausch Creek Run and 2012 EC4RJ Pennsylvania - YotaTech Forums

anyone know of a run where i can drive a loop or section of wilderness maybe 30-50mi long?
camp in a new spot every night.
I'm more-so about the adventure rather than the rock-crawling and mud pits.

Are you willing to travel to KY? If so, PM Wayneraintree.

GWNF. There are many more (legal) trails out there than what we did in February of 2011 or the day trip in the summer.

My Isuzu buddies did a loop last year, Labor Day. Went into WV and rode Forest Service trails in there that come back into VA. (They used good topo maps, not the crappy maps posted by the USFS on the web). Said their total dirt time was nearly 70 miles.

sweet. i'll have to do that loop when i have my netbook gps set up in the runner.

Bob, KY is just a bit of a haul for me. If i had the time and gas money...

Sounds like a lot of fun. Do you know the loop they took or how long it took them? What about the level of the trails? I would definitely be in!

Parker, I'll try to find out specifically where they went. They used good topo maps from Blue Ridge Mountain Sports (bmrs.com). Apparently those maps show all the USFS roads.

From their description, most trails were comparable to Waggy's Creek Trail.

Im always game.

 

[Devilmans Hand]

I found some free maps to be used in arcmap or google earth
George Washington & Jefferson National Forests - Geospatial Data
I'll play with them in a bit and see if i can get them to work.

Now I like this option better Im the same way lets figure a place to head out for a weekend

Check out the usgs 7.5 min quad maps, those are going to be the best maps you're going to come by. Toss the electronics and route find with paper!!

 

[Devilmans Hand]

cool. I'll have to pick one up. Think I saw the hardcopy GWNF maps at REI.

The cool thing about the electronic maps is that i can load them into ArcGIS, customize stuff, then print them out. If only I had access to a bigger printer.

Sounds like a plan in the making.

Are you a fellow GIS geek?
