We may be inland, but it doesn't mean we don't have beachfront property! Grab your towel and sunscreen and come enjoy this riverside camp out. A seafood dinner theme and Hawaiian shirts and attire are encouraged but not required.


 
Hey Kevin, Unfortunately due to the short notice I won’t be able to make it. Kallie has already dropped her vacation time for the middle of this months.

Hi, I haven't been getting a lot in a few years so I'm trying to get more involved. I see there are 7 "spots" is that the number of vehicles? I have some buddies that we're talking about coming down from Spokane, I want to make sure I understand all the things. Also it says "lift, armor, etc" if my unmodified Rubicon going to make it, what about a discovery II, is a winch really necessary for this trail?

Thanks in advance, I don't want to jump in and miss understand on my first trip in years.

Don't want to jump on toes, but Kevin must be unavailable...

Typically, the rig limit it exactly that. Limited to 7 rigs this trip.

Your Rubicon and d2 should be just fine. Bring what gear you have, and we'll make sure you get there and back. I'm running a 4runner on 32s with only one locker, so you are most likely more capable than I am.

Start thinking Hawaii and seafood...
I'm planning on coconut shrimp and a fruity beverage.
This will be an exercise in glamping.

Terribly sorry for the late response. A stock rubicon will be more than capable to make it down to the beach. The winch is more of a cautionary tool since we will be parked on sand, just in case someone gets stuck. If you have any further questions feel free to send me a private message or would be more than willing to talk on the phone more about it.

Do we have a meeting point?
Maybe here?

Neighbors A1 Market & Gas

Fueled up and ready to Roll.

Either that or the Maverick. Either one is viable, I haven't had the time to iron the fine details down. Once I have a solid list of folks, then it will be put out to the group.
 
@Big Red Burb is most likely going to make it.
With the Big Red Suburban and the Sherpa Trailer!

Spoke with them last night, I think I have them talked into it.
They won't be able to make the 1:00 departure but should only be a couple hours behind and ready to Luau!

Fantastic! Can you confirm that my GPX file is working? That will make it much easier for them.
 
Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy... We get to make this year's event!!! Thanks for putting this on again Kevin.
We've made a few upgrades since we last met, recover boards, hidden winch, extra tidbits and doodads.
See you at the rally point.
