Looks like we might get some nice footage out of this trip!
So what if everyone pitched in like $2 on a spool of dvd's so when the video is put together everyone can get a dvd? I know I want one too!!

A nice ride for the "no damage" crowd is to run the north side trails all the way to Lake City. You actually pop out near the top of what the locals call the Caryville overlook. You have to watch your turns but I think they have marked them better since the last time I was up that way.

Can we get a list going of who is, or might be camping?
I'm down for camping!

*And can I say wow, I mean 9 pages of posts on this trip! Geeze! It should be a good one...

Oh and as for:

I'm mounting my winch tray this week. (Without winch for now till I get the $$) But it'll serve as a front recovery point if needed. Also I'm try'n to source one the Warn hitch/shackles but my local Tractor Supply doesn't carry them. I may need to pm Richard to snag one for me ...

wouldnt mind a bit, if you cant find one locally, dont waste your money on shipping when i can pick one up for you. if your even thinking about getting one let me know, cause last time i went by tractor supply, they only had one.

Actually, if you could snag that for me, that'd be great, don't know if I'll get lucky around here or not.
Roughly how much are they Richard? $45-50?
And do I still need to buy a seperate shackle, or does the hitch come with a shackle?

One thing that needs to mentioned as far as off-road equipment and I cant stress this enough. If you dont bring recovery straps, if you dont have recovery points, if you dont have a winch, for heavens sake please, please bring Wal Mart beef jerky! It is an essential item for wilderness expeditions as it can not only provide nourishment (albiet via sodium overloading) it can also double as winch line, recovery strap, serpentine belt, tire patch, shelter, and as a weapon for self protection from harmful predators or inbred mountain people.

I may be in on this one. I was in the middle of doing an extreme makeover on my suspension, but my new Fox shocks won't be here for another 3 weeks. :( I still may come as I am. My new rear bumper isn't installed yet either. :(

No hotel, no camping, no pizza for me. I need to try and scoot by about 4 pm if possible. Hoping nothing goes wrong and I can make it home to turn on the Christmas lights :D

See you all at the hotel Saturday morning.

oh, sorry..i feel stupid, it hasnt even happened.
You would think with 9 pages of post we would have been there and back then discussed every roll of the wheel.

Can't wait to get there I hope the weather is good, I know the Man over that I'll talk to Him about it and see if He will hook us up :cool:
