I'm pretty sure we scared him off last year.

Of all the things Scott could have told me about the last years trip the vast majority of it was about Maximus. I hope he shows.

Ok, it's confirmed. We're in! We'll get there Sat morning and leave Sunday afternoon.

Well Guys and Gals, it's time to get ready for the annual camping trip at The Cove! Can you believe this will be 5 years in a row?!

For those that have never been before, this trip is a great opportunity to meet some fellow forum enthusiasts, and the ability to take your 4Runner off the beaten path for a weekend of fun!

The Cove offers everything from gravel access roads to mud pits to hard core rock crawling!

You will enjoy rustic camping (no water or electricity at the campsight, only a spot-a-pot, picnic table and fire ring), fishing, shooting at a new improved range, exploring and awesome conversations at the campfire at night.

We are extremely fortunate that the great staff at The Cove opens their trail network up to us for this event! They have very specific rules that only allow trail riding for large events (we are not a large event for them), and we have earned their trust and approval.

It would be great to get a big crowd together this year!

It's pretty exciting, BUT- based on past experience we lose about 10 people off the list as the trip approaches...:deadhorse:

 

[crapper1979]

Yep, currently deployed. I should be back stateside Oct-Nov time frame so I'm not sure I'll be able to make it this year. If I'm back early enough I'll be there! Fingers crossed!
