I'd say I'd be interested in goin to mountainside. It'd be QUITE a long drive, but it looks like fun. I'd be hard pressed to be a definite "yes" until closer to time though due to physics and chem, so I'm afraid I'm just "interested" at this point.

Ben, let me know if your school schedule opens up, I have a room you can stay in to cut the trip into 2 days if you want (I live in Woodstock).

Superwinch EPi9.0s - love it.
Two of us had to winch out recently on a very steep hill. The first guy's winch starting grinding and then smoking, plus it took forever to pull his vehicle up (it wasn't a Warn or Superwinch). When it was my turn, I was a little concerned, but the Superwinch looked like it was using warp speed compared to the other, and had absolutely no problem dragging me out. Sweet!!

Well technically you didn't say we had to live in Tennessee, just near Tennessee (I figured you really meant near Alabama - i.e., like someone in Tennessee, but thought I'd be a bit cantankerous.).

There are a number of nice trails that you could ride (I've been there with stock TJs, see ---> https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...ide#post769901), but you'd have to let the group head off without you on others. Good news though is you'd be able to easily meet back up again as there are lots of loops - enough to keep you busy for the day.
Mountainside was one of the first parks I wheeled in, and I learned a lot about my JK's significant capabilities there (especially made me want to start making mods to add to those capabilities). Been there three times now, and look forward to returning.

Thanks a ton, man. I've still got my apartment in ATL for now, so I could crash there. That lease runs out mid-August, so I might take you up on that in the future.
It'd be nice to ride along with you guys though, so I might would head up and meet you somewhere.
I also might be bringing company... too early to tell on that as well, but I figure I should mention it as a possibility.
