February 23rd, 2013 @ Gremlin Graveyard in South-Central, MA

Contact: David (RCHeliman)

The February 23 run will be at "Gremlin Graveyard", a large wooded property with 5 major trails. These are logging trails with short stumps and rocks present in the trails. Some trails have large ruts from the logging equipment. Most of the trails are stock friendly during the summer months. Heavy snow is possible in the winter months. The snow and ice will add a more technical aspect to the main trails. There are also two advanced trails with large hill climbs and ledges that will be challenging even to the more modified rigs.

There is room for trailers to be parked at the trail head.
There is a large open area (the landing) to air down and to have lunch.

Most of our runs there have averaged 5hrs. From 10:00 am to 3:00pm. This will allow for airing up, any repairs and traveling, getting home at a decent time.

There is no Rig limit for this property.
Attendees will meet at 9:30am in Sturbridge, MA
This allows more time for weather and longer travel time concerns
All attendees must sign a waiver as in all trail runs. Waiver

This is private property.
THERE IS A $20 CASH PER RIG LAND USE FEE FOR GG!!! Unless you are with NEXTerra or another NEA Club you will be trespassing, therefore all attendees must be registered members of NEXTerra and be signed up within this thread.

Everyone will be meeting at the:

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store
215 Charlton Rd. Sturbridge Mass. 01566-1216
It is off Mass. I 84 and Rt. 20

Meeting Time: 9:30am Leaving for Trailhead @ 9:45 Sharp!!

There is Parking for Trailers and your Rig in the Back Lot
and a Gas station right next door with a Dunkin' Donuts.

After the run we plan on doing dinner at the Cracker Barrel.

Please post if you plan on joining us for the run with your:
• screen name

• your club affiliation
• and if you plan on staying for dinner at Cracker Barrel

FYI, this is the same date as the GPAX Shocker Run - Deep Six. I hate having to compete for attendees.

I'm still going. Need to get out at least one weekend. PA is a bit too far, but I'm definitely going to GG.

I am still going as well.

This run was proposed well before I new about the Shocker Run. PA is way too far for a 1 or 2 day trip for me anyway.

Just about a week to go... with the snow we've had in the last few days it should be interesting. It's not too late to join in.

Hi Guys,
Long time, no see! It looks like there may be another group there, Underground Jeeps, but I do not anticipate any issue running parallel with them.

I may be able to join you as well, as I need to assess the property for an upcoming trail cut. I'll be keeping in contact with Ernie on the details.

Snow in Sturbridge is down to about 8+/- inches with more in the woods. There should still be plenty for the 23rd.

Talk soon,
Joe
