You holding out on us bama JK? Living out there near Paint Rock with its hundreds of miles of backwoods trails - bet you know someplace we could assault.

This Saturday afternoon? Meet at Wendy's (other side of Chapman Mtn roughly 1-2 miles on the right after I-565 ends), say around 2:00? Maybe ride 3-4 hours.

Red,

I've been wanting to hunt out on the arsenal but don't really know the area well. I have hunted wheeler several years, and although there are a good many people, the hunting is sometimes ok. the past few years I have gotten more into duck hunting though. It's lots of fun! You don't have to worry about your smell or being quiet.... Anywho, when is the orientation class for hunting on base?

I would love to go on sat guys, but I got two tickets for the bama game, so probably need to go. I was excited until that game on sat...blah! Any other bama fans here? Don't tell me I'm the only one

I wish I lived that far out. In fact I live about 2-3 miles east of that Wendy's. As long is I can get the wife's permission did be down for some trails this weekend, I just need someone that knows where to go since the only trails that I know, I don't think my Jeep will make it thru.

Hey guys
Give me a headcount. Who is interested on wheelin tomorrow afternoon around 2?
We have two options for now, one is Swann Creek (South of Athens) or up by Paint Rock (east of Huntsville)
Ill check back in the morning to see what kind of responses we get. Also need to get some contact info for folks so we can do this more efficiently.

I live in New Market and work in Huntsville at Lockheed across from UAH... I don't have a JK, but I do have a black TJ with RE 4.5" lift, 33" MTZ's, powerplant winch, bumpers, armor, etc..... I do hope to get a new JK 4dr Rubicon as a daily driver

Ripping it apart in my garage:





Finished product...

Hey Marine, the home-made chocolate chip cookies on the Christmas chair in the first pic is a nice touch. When we worked on JK-Rubi's lift, all we got out of him was a slice of pizza.

I'm cycling in the morning, but will plan to roam around out in Paint Rock in the afternoon. Unless I hear differently here, 2:00 at Wendy's?

After all that chocolate chip bread pudding you ate today, how can you be thinking about cookies?

Nice looking Jeep!! You'll like the lockers on the Rubicon when you get one, although you probably won't have much need for using them if it's a DD.

Default Just for Clarification

We don't plan on doing anything worse than this tomorrow do we? If so, I'll bring some outdoor survival gear as we may be gone more than 3-4 hours.

I like that Black Rubicon JK 4dr, RockLimo - I'll bet that was more fun than a carnival ride.
