Post by: Jrama on March 01, 2014, 08:30:46 AM: Sunday March.23 is the date!

We will be going out to Waiparous for a Jeep Run! Will take most of the day Sunday. Meet at Smitty's at 9:00 and head to the trail by 9:30. Nothing too challenging....just icey hills and potentially deep snow. I will be leading this run.

Come Prepared!

Good Attitude
Warm clothes, Food and the like
Reliable Jeep (no bald tire, oil spewing, ready to die rigs)
Tow Points

Post up if you think you can make it out!

Although I'm not the trail leader on this run, I'd say that all seasons are NOT going to work for this run. I assume you mean straight forward on-road all seasons and not all terrains.

Post by: Jrama on March 19, 2014, 12:30:46 PM: Stock the JK Sahara's Should have All terrain tires! Should be the Dueler A/T ..Unless you specifically replaced them with an all season!

Post by: andfre on March 25, 2014, 09:16:33 PM: Sucks I had to bail, but was paranoid about not getting to the airport in time to get my kid.
Looking forward to the next one. Finally got a Jeep and got some pent up off roadness.
