Hey Everyone...
Would anyone be interested in taking out a newbie? I want to get my Jeep out and get it a little muddy before my summer is over. My Jeep isnt stock anymore but I am dying to see how well it works. I would be interested in Sunday August 30th.
-
Where were you thinking of headin out?
-
Like I say I am a Newbie and I honestly dont know where would be Good or which runs to do. I was hoping for a guy with experience on the trails to show us a Good path.
-
hey jamal, ill go if your in.
-
I am pretty sure that I will be out in MacLean with at least one other jeep on Sunday. Have a pretty good knowledge of most of MacLean keep me posted on when you were thinking about going out.
We tend to aim to be at the store for 9.
-
Well now that you mention it...I think I will be there on sunday as well.
-
Lucky jerks - Wish i could join you, but I'll be leaving to Victoria for my wedding.
Have a good time out there.
-
I haven't been out in 2 weeks! 2 WEEKS! >:(
I'll be out on Sunday. ;D
-
I assume this will be a stocker run.
-
would come out but gotta do my master cylinder >:(
-
i think i'd like to join this outing
-
going to try to make it out...see how week goes.
-
I may try to make it as well. Need all the practice I can get! See if my Yota buddy can come out and bounce off rocks as well.
-
I may be in for Sunday... I just gotta see how Saturday goes first.
9:00 at the Mclean store sounds like a decent start.
I wish I knew where we went last week so I could put my vote in for a different trail (dont get me wrong... last trail was fun... would just prefer to tackle a different one this week)
Mike... you probably know where we went... you seem to know stuff :)
-
from the pictures it looks like last week you guys did the 101 trail backwards...going up instead of down.
-
I think your the 2nd person to say that... so the "101 trail backwards" is what I am going to store in the vault :P
So... Jenn... where ya taking us this Sunday?
-
I have sad news....I probably won't be out to MacLean until 10:30 - 11 as the friend I am bringing has to pick up his kid at 9. But we will be heading out after that...so I guess I might see some of you out there :)
-
What time is everyone meeting at the Store? I have never been to McLean Creek so is there only one store and is it hard to find?
-
one store Rich.. can't miss it...
what time? I might be able to make it with XJHERO
-
Last week was my first time out to Mclean so I didn't know how to find "the store" either so we just met at the Shell in Bragg Creek.
Basic directions to where I think the "Mclean store" is... are:
1) Drive West on 22x past the turn off to Bragg Creek (dont turn right/North to Bragg Creek unless ya need gas)
2) Continue on 22x until you see a left turn & sign that says "McLean Creek" (about 5 to 10km past Bragg creek turn off...from memory)
3) Take that left and continue until you see the "provincial government" looking building on your right (about 2 to 5km from memory)
That is where I believe the Mclean store to be... having said that... I have only been there once.
Use at your own risk :)
-
9-9:30?
-
I'll be at the store for 9am.
-
Anybody wheelin' on saturday? Im heading out camping for fri night and would like to do some wheelin' on sat!

Do you have a CB yet Jenn? We can try to leave a note for you on the board at the store.
-
hey Kevin
I don't have a cb yet...but I am pretty sure my friend does. What channel do you guys usually use? I will get him to tune in when we get out there...I imagine we will take him up to the top of the world the way we went with you last time and then just do some random exploring which we like to do.
But who knows maybe we will run into you out there :)
-
Channel 10 - hope to see ya!
-
so are the above directions to the mclean store correct?
Also, is this a stocker run? I have a buddy interested in a stock TJ. He's got tow hooks
-
yeah...those directions are good.
-
Hey also interested if it's a stocker run, have a 94 xj with front tow hooks.
-
Not looking good for Sunday. Hope next time. Keep the rubber side down.
-

You should have front and back took hook, a full size spare tire , CB ro FRS,
back tow hook are usually mandatory.. do you have ant or a hitch receiver?
-

-
Hey everybody I am really sorry I have to bail on everyone tomorrow. Some family stuff came up this tonight and I am dealing with it. I was really looking forward to getting out and getting the Jeep dirty. I sure hope we can make it out again with in the next couple of weeks. I hope everyone has fun.
-
To everyone on the "easy" run today, especially John and Chris as the trail guides, thanks for a great day. Excellent trail, excellent weather, no carnage (aside from more scratches).

So....what's planned for long weekend? Would like to hook up with familiar/new faces and explore some more. Mabey a pause here and there for map reference/photos. Need to pause to add names to places. Learning, but slowly. Mabey a day learning area then a challenging day? Any guides?
Lead me not to temptation, I'll find it fine on my own.
-
Mike... dont know; however, a new post will get more attention & replies thats for sure ???
I know I am the ultimate tentative guy as of late... but this is my schedule:
Thursday... install control arms
Friday... install air system and wiring harness
Saturday... install roll cage & sway lock
Sunday... Go wheelin and try out my new junk :)
So... long story short... I am pretty sure I'm in for a Sunday run.

Hey Mike we started another post "September 6th" to see if we could find anyone else.
-
Mike is a "free thinking radical"... he cannot be influenced to post where "society" would consider to be the proper spot.
We know that about Mike... but we wheel with him anyway :)
-
Man I'm a little...well...alot slow. Sept 6th seemed so far away but I guess it's right. Where did the summer go? Didn't mean to hijack your post.
