No doubt! What an awesome trip!

It was great meeting many of you, and a huge thanks to [MENTION=137555]Sleeter[/MENTION] for setting this all up. The trails were exactly what I was looking for.

Now, I'm really in need of some wheels, tires and suspension so I can make the next trip with you guys. Anybody got some trail premium wheels sitting around unused?
 
It's all over already?

Not yet. The majority of the group is still there tonight into tomorrow at Green Ridge State Forest. A fair sum of folks had to peel off at various points during the day, including myself once we got to GRSF.

Trying to get some pictures posted up soon!
 
By the time I saw anything about this trip I already had alternate plans, but would love to hook up with the group the next time you all do this! Can't wait to see more pictures from the trip!
 
He folks, thanks for a great experience this weekend, albeit it was shorter for me, I did have a blast and can't wait to do it again. Hope to see some of you at mid-Atlantic overland festival in August if not sooner!

I got home just a little while ago but wanted to take a moment to say that it was great meeting everyone. I enjoyed our campfire talks and checking out your amazing rigs.

I also wanted to say thank you to Sleeter for the hard work that was put into this trip. The trip was well thought out and executed. Great job!

My vote for Rookie Of The Year goes to Antman's daughter.

And best rib catering company goes to GHARP57. :)

It was nice to meet and wheel with you too! You got in late, but we had a good little adventure there at the end of the day. Fun times and glad you could make it out.

[MENTION=137555]Sleeter[/MENTION] thank you for your long hours putting this trip together, I had a great time.
[MENTION=141503]carlos.elmotor[/MENTION] I had an excellent time with group 3 and you were an awesome trail lead. It was a pleasure wheeling with you, and I hope to do it again soon.

It was a pleasure meeting all of you... Greg, Hertz, Antman, Gharp, Carlos El, 4runnergrl, Tao, everyone. Trails were amazing! We had a great time and looking forward to another adventure with the Outbound Overland Family! I threw up a few video(s) of the ride up to flagpole, WV, etc. Loved every minute of it!

Just got home and settled- shower never felt better?:emptybath:

What an awesome group of people- this forum amazes me again!
[MENTION=137555]Sleeter[/MENTION] [MENTION=141503]carlos.elmotor[/MENTION] [MENTION=125025]GHARP57[/MENTION] Thank you for the trail guidance- and Tom in particular- all the effort you put into this definitely shined through!

I asked Alex what her favorite part of the trip was and she said "Spending the time camping with my Daddy..." Thank you for providing such a special, memorable experience for us!

Pics and videos soon (I hope!)

PS- And to ALL the group- great to meet you!!
 
Likewise all. Great to meet everyone. I had an awesome time and this trip just reinforces what a great community we have here on T4R.

My hat is off to you [MENTION=137555]Sleeter[/MENTION]. Coordinating a multi-day 30+ vehicle trip across two states with zero drama is incredibly difficult and you pulled it off without a single hiccup. Bravo sir!

I'll be working on pics and video tonight/on a flight tomorrow. Will post ASAP.
