Rausch Creek this weekend, who's coming?

[propain]

My buddy and I are looking to hook up with folks for green and some blue trails. We are off-road beginners, we are running a lifted Jeep on 33s (2nd time to Rausch) and I have a slightly lifted 4Runner TRD Pro (1st time wheeler). The more the merrier!! We'd also like people with familiarity with the park, etc. We will be camping there all weekend. We are leaving Friday night and will stay till Sunday mid-day. Would love to meet up with some 4Runner folks.

Hope you have a great time, but I don't know how many people will be able to come through since everyone is trying to prepare for the 9th Annual FJNE Run on April 28 - May 1.
Look into it, you'll be seeing a lot of Toyotas at this event.

NOTE: Registration is over, but you might be able to get in by sending an email.

We are going to Anthracite Offroad Adventure Area (AOAA) this weekend, but staying close to RC at Twin Grove CG in Pine Grove, Pa. I am taking my Jeep up though, not the 4R this time. There is a rock crawl competition happening at RC this weekend, but it shouldn't affect the trails. This comp takes place near the office. The place will probably be busy. It is fun to watch the comps though, check it out if you want to take the time.

FYI...

You can download an app called Maplets and search for Rausch Creek. They have the trails on there and it will show you where you are. There are 2 on there, one for the MC trails and the offroad trails. Make sure you pic the right area..

Have a great time!

This is how deep the black-side of the pole-line trail is. I nearly got stuck but I was able to turned on terrain-select "mud" and was able to power out. With the rear locked and ATRAC I got stuck but I gotta hand it to the Toyota engineers, terrain select saved my pants.

I had a great time for my first time out. I never thought 4Runners could handle all that abuse. Thanks for coming!
If you want the hammock, pm me your addy, ill send it. Thanks again for the WW and steaks!

The Jeep that went with us off-roading is leaking fluid from its front diff and needs a wheel alignment.

So glad i choose a 4runner :clap2:

Nice video!

How was the trails for branches sticking out, etc? My main concern is getting redneck pinstriping all down the sides of my GX. I see that you have the MGM color and want to know how you faired.

Would love to join one of the future runs!
