http://www.nexterra.org/documents/NEXTerra%20Waiver.pdf

Details:
We will be wheeling on private property that we have access to through the North East Association of 4Wheel Drive Clubs (NEA). Unless you are with NEXTerra or are a member of the NEA, you will be trespassing. All non-NEA attendees must be registered members of NEXTerra and be signed up to attend.

It will be cold, with snow & ice possible - dress appropriately. Gremlin Graveyard also has lots of stumps & potentially mud depending on the season. The run in the dry is stock friendly with several harder obstacles & hill climbs for the modified rigs. Conditions change with the weather & although we will do our best to keep you & your rig from damage, it is possible. Skids & sliders are recommended but not necessary. Make sure your rig has at least one frame mounted recovery point. Airing down will be mandatory for this run (recommend running max at 20psi). There's a gas station near by to air up. Your fellow wheelers may offer you their air-up equipment at their discretion, but do not expect it. Snow & ice make things exponentially difficult (especially ledge & hill climbs)

Sign up for Gremlin Graveyard, MA HERE!

I have every intention of going but I'm going to wait to sign up until we're a bit closer, given that I had to bail on the last two.

If you can find a committee member to lead one down there
by all means have one.

or

you can have a regional run down there with a small group,
it would just not be an official club run.

We should be there. Going to wait and see how a couple things pan out first but I suspect we'll show up. Probably have cash at the parking lot.

How young are the girls? I'm thinking about bringing my 2 1/2 year old along. She loved the bumps of beach driving but this may be a bit intense/long for her.

They are 5 and 7....my 7 year old has been going since 4...younger than that might be too much bouncing...
They both love it though..

I always found that, if you keep the juice box's down to a minimal with little kids there's less potty breaks. My kids were like cocker spaniels when it came to having to pee all the time, so hiking trips with them when they were younger, had to be next to a bathroom. Some kids won't squat in the woods. Even now with a 16,17, and 20 year old daughters I still get the...."wait, we have to pee in the woods"? "Hell no! Well you can't win them all. Long conversations on what to expect, goes a long way, ecspecially for long slow bumpy and quite possibly boring rides.
