Some of our guys are going to Allegan/Yankee Springs the 14th& 15th of April. I'm going to try and make it but being that it's Easter I'm not sure boss (aka the wife) is going to go for it. I think I've got it posted on the site and OB calendar.

Yankee is fun. if its muddy you can get a challenge because of the ruts by the guys with 37" and bigger tires. Just sent a message via Michigan overland site. Looking forward to maybe getting together for some rides. The wife and I often do the UP. Nice trails and places to camp aound whitefish point. This year we are doing Keewanaw area labor dayish and Whitefish point memorial day ish

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I've never been there so I don't know what to expect. We've got a Facebook group set up if you're interested in joining up.

I organized my camp kitchen the other night. I got my bedrack on a couple days ago and the RTT mounted up today. Going to swap the RTT cover tomorrow for an extra I had that I cleaned up. Should be ready for Yankee Springs/ Allegan! Where will we be camping?

Checking in from West Olive Michigan (west side between Grand Haven and Holland).

Just replied back to you on the Allegan/Yankee Springs post. Let me know if you've got any questions. We've also got a Facebook group you can join up with. Most of our groups interactions happen there. We do have some crossover between there and the OB forums but I'm not as active here as I'd like to be.

Is there a thread specifically for this? I'm definitely interested in going.

Not a thread but I did put up a post in the events section and on the calendar. I'll get some more details tonight from the group and post it up.

Hey Jakob. We've got a few things posted up on the Michigan Overland site and Facebook group and I try to keep the OB calendar updated. We're going to Allegan/Yankee Springs in a few weeks, Manistee in May, and a TBD in September.

That's awesome. I just started seeing the Mac/Drummond event recently and probably couldn't have cobbled together anything for it. One of our guys is doing the JeepEnd on Drummond in June and I'm going to ride along (I don't drive a Jeep). I'm pretty stoked for that one. Other than that September and the Fall Tunnel of Trees is really it for trips. Gonna try to get to Silver Lake Sand Dunes Jeep Invasion and the Extreme ORV expo this year.
