[MattJakobs]

[MENTION=109102]MattJakobs[/MENTION]. Have you seen this? Looks like there are a few 757 guys going. I might be down.

I haven't but I'm scheduled for work 9:30-6 that Saturday. I'll be working pretty much everyday till school starts back up trying to scrape together the last of the monies for the season.

see you guys at the 64 rest stop. if anyone has recovery gear its better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it

 

[GHARP57]

Can we get a count on who has gear to pull people out? would be good to have them evenly spaced out throughout the group to make it easier

i have a snatch strap and two shackles and a hitch mount for one of the shackles

 

[Chuch]

I've got some basic stuff including a nice tow strap. This is basically a shake down ride for my new rig, so I'll be keeping it fairly light on my "let me see if I can get this thing stuck" mentality anywhere we go. HA!

CB going in today.

I have some recovery straps I keep on me.. I only have a rear hitch shackle.

Bubba rope, a few shackles and a hitch mount shackle here. Got a saw and shovel if I remember to throw them in there.

if what i see on maps is right flag pole is two hours away from little fort. it looks like i might have plans sunday so i might only do flagpole then head home. if i do camp it will be only for the night then make my way home and skip the trails sunday. how many are camping and how many are only going for the day?

So...turns out that August 22nd is the Virginia Craft Brewers Festival and I've got to work. So, I can officially be removed from the attendees list.

ok sounds good.


what time are we meeting at the gas station before the trail?

 

[Chuch]

Looks like the final meet up in Harrisonburg at the Shell Station is 1100.

Guys, I lost my brake booster this weekend and I am trying my best to get the rig up and running. Found a used one today and the shop should have installed tomorrow hopefully. I'll give an update here soon hopefully.

So quick question for you guys. I was talking about the trip at work and one of the kids there has a wj on a Clayton long arm on 33s wrapped around a set of trail ready beadlocks. He ask if he could tag along with. I know it's a jeep but it is a wj and the Jeep guys don't even like the wjs.

i dont know about the others but i have no problems with jeeps

 

[hearno]

Yeah I don't think anyone would mind and if they do, that's their problem.

 

[Twitchstyle13]

Cool I didn't think it would be an issue. That's one of the many reasons why I stay in the yota community.

 

[Chuch]

Quick question for planning purposes on my end. Can someone speak to the average time (out and back) to complete each of these two trails?

 

[GHARP57]

I am expecting to not make it home till evening 6-8ish and I live in C-Ville. Haven't done the run before just an expectation I am expecting
