This will be the first annual East Region Fall Run (to be held in different locations every year). An easy, relaxed trip for everyone of any skill level, we will be combining the every popular Puppy Dog Route and the historic Bayley-Hazen Military Road.

You need to correct the number allowed. It says limited to 20 trucks but it shows 40 in the RSVP.

Hi there! Its a bit confusing I realize but RSVP and Rigs are separate for now since people and rigs will always be different numbers - but its a good note to make this more clear/better.

Michael, you may already be aware of this, but one other thing I just noticed about the rally points is that on the main page it shows the date the event was created. It may be better to have it show the date's of the actual event so that they will be in the order that they are happening.

This is going to be awesome! Thanks so much Chris! I'll definitely be going with 1 vehicle and likely 3 people total.

Hey Chris, Thanks for putting this together, I just signed up.
Works out well being 2 weeks after VOR, I won't have to unpack and repack the Jeep.

Hey folks. so I noticed in the event that 20 of 20 are listed as going but only 11 of you are showing. Are there any of you who RSVPed as going but don't show as going on the event page?

Hey Chris,
I just checked the Rally Point site, it only shows 10 people going but if you click on the "Going" it shows all 20 people.

Guys. I have some bad news followed by some great news. First the bad news. We will not be doing the uploaded route. I know, bummer. Why? I chatted with the legendary @ronharrington2 about camping spots and he pointed out that with the number of folks going we would not be able to complete this trip and camping would be impossible. Instead of cutting the allowed number of rigs, we decided to rework this route. That is the good news. We will still be doing this trip in VT. And even better, Ron will be helping (or basically doing all the work) to figure out a great scenic route with adequate camping for the entire group. So stay tuned as we will be making some changes to this trip in the coming weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience and lack of info. And thanks for hangin in there with us. Also, Thanks Ron for pointing this blip out before we hit the trail and found out the hard way!

Chris, this might be an opportunity to head out towards Greylock and possibly camp at the site I told you about off of Rt 8. Let me know if you'd like me to explore that option.
