Double down on your wheeling pleasure! In addition to the club Gremlin Graveyard run Saturday the 20th, Jeff and I would like to offer a Sunday run to make traveling in from a distance even more attractive. There is a camp site just down the road from our wheeling spot that TomsRedX stayed at in the beginning of the season. He reported it as a decent camp ground w/ an excellent buffet breakfast. (http://www.prospectmtncampground.com//)

I believe anyone capable of running the grave yard should be able to join us, although I would recommend at least OEM skids, sliders and the breather extension. For those less adventurous, there is a big go around the water crossing that misses out on some really decent trail.

The even more adventurous can talk Jeff into leading them a bit farther down the road to a black trail. Only issue when he was last there a month or so ago there were a couple of big trees down across the trail. Chain saws may be required. That day he ended up winching his nephew’s Rover back out to the road with a blown front diff. It’s also the trail that set off my side air bags. Tony and Suresh have both run it without damage (that I’m aware of).

This is a fun, free, non-club run which will only happen if there is a bit of interest shown. As described before in our adventures, it’s a big area with our usual run being about 12 miles of trail which takes 2.5 to 6 hours to run depending on how dry/muddy the trails are and what rigs join us. A number of exits are available for egress if we’re running long or you have to hit the road early.
Post up if your interested.

Scott

If anyone wants to stay at prospect mountain campground you might want to call ahead to see if anything is available. It seems to be a popular place. Be early to the buffet though, it gets busy.

If anyone's on the fence about running with Scott and Jeff, just do it. Its a fun ride. Plus, Scott brings yummy muffins!

Just a bump to see if there is any more interest. Jeff's Rubicon will be out of service he's in the middle of a rear axle upgrade that got delayed. Hopefully he'll be doing a ride along with his nephew in a Rover. Starting time is flexible but as early as Jdicenso can comfortably make it is my recommendation.

Quick follow up on my "super" RCV axles, they sent me the extended width ones. Hopefully the correct center shaft sections are headed this way. They certainly won't be on this weekend.

Scott

Tony, Do you need/prefer a specific time? I was going to leave it as early as Jdicenso can comfortably make it since he has a couple of hour drive ahead of him.
