bbertram
kCed
Mjolnir

Looking pretty good so far. I think we have our weekend!!! and the potential Brandon area trails look amazing so...... Anyone else?
since we kind of got off track is this list still accurate?

Is everyone good for camping?

It looks like there might be some guys on the WORE forum that would be staying in a hotel in case anyone (Redrok) is interested in doing that!!

I'm interested in meeting up with the group on Sunday.

I work on Saturday and would drive out Saturday evening... hotel for the night and hook up for wheelin' on Sunday Morning.

Anyone else on a similar plan?

Is something being set up for the "hotel" types at one hotel, or every man for himself?

I am not a camping guy and my wife even less, (don't have the gear) but, we do want to come out.

I am on the WORE site, RRJC site and WHORE.

I don't think anyone has set a hotel yet, so it's your choice!! I'm sure if you post where you are staying (post it on WORE too) any other hotelers will follow suit.

As for meeting on Sunday, no problem we'll meet you somewhere. 2vpblaze is still figuring out some details on which trails we are going on. Once we know that we can set a time/place to meet on Sunday.

Glad to see another one out. This is shaping up to be one heck of a run

Ok, this has been suggested...

(by SamuraiKid on WORE)

http://www.redwoodmotorinn.ca/default.htm

Just called the Redwood...

Room availability is good at this time...

Double occupancy, with a Queen Bed is $69.

Double occupancy, with two Queen Beds is $72. ($36. per person),
...and the gal on the phone said that they could accomodate Four people, two Queen Beds at $79.

(you may qualify for discounts)

So far...
0llll0 & 0llll0 Wife
Dracattack.... both halfs
pdouglas
2vpblaze
bbertram
kCed
Mjolnir
JeepBob (Sunday)

That leaves two questions...

1. Would this (Redwood Hotel) be a good meet-up place Sunday morning?

2. The pics shown on the first page of this thread, look pretty tame, any special equipment requirements or suggestions?

If the Redwood meets your hotel needs, I say go for it, looks like it has reasonable rates. It's right on the main road going to town so it's in as good of place as any. So anyone staying in a hotel PM Bob and see if he want's to share a room, or at least book at the redwood.

If I'm not mistaken, you're in a TJ rubicon, as long as you have front and rear tow hooks and the factory skid plates and mufler haven't been removed you're pretty much good. If you have a tow strap, fire extinguisher, first aid kit it would be a good idea to bring it, but I don't think it'a absolutely necessary. Same goes for the rest of us!!!

as for capability, a few of us are stock so we do stock friendly runs, there's always optional area's that are more of a challange!!


So far...
0llll0 & 0llll0 Wife - camping
Dracattack.... both halfs - camping
pdouglas + wife - camping
2vpblaze + wife? - camping
Mjolnir - camping
bbertram - ??
kCed - ??
JeepBob (Sunday) - hotel
