That makes twenty-two rigs.

We better be careful...ten fingers, ten toes, two ears...there's only the nose left before Trev has to drop trou in order to keep counting!  :o

It will be awhile, yet. It's worth at least 6....


Why the hell do y'all drag my pecker into conversation all the time? Starting to give me a complex....
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.

Do you guys ever put up photo's from your runs?  I notice the toyota guys do videos and stuff would be cool to see the Jeep guys representing.  I know about the thread light stuff but it still doesn't mean we can't document and share enjoying the outdoors does it?

On the open forum, we don't allow pics and videos to be posted.  We do allow links to those pics.

I've heard that the Yota guys do some cool videos.  We sometimes post video but it's usually just the clip... no edting.  I'm sure some of us have editing software but it most likely comes down to time.   What you would rather spend your time on?  Wheeling/wrenching or editing a video about
wheeling...


It is good idea though.

I don't deny the fact I'm sure we'd all rather be wheeling over video editing.  I was just a little curious why I never see pictures on here from the runs.

Seems like a crap load of rigs to me, which is pretty damn cool.  How many is the most you have had on a winter run?

How many is too many?

I'm sure we will lose a few... we also do...

We will just break it up into managable groups and try not to run into one another.

I've had nineteen on a winter run.  ??? Nineteen is too many.  :-\

We'll aim to have each group somewhere between five and ten rigs. I think that Specialk is right, and that we will lose some of the rigs. I think that some people will not realize that they are not coming until the wake up on New Year's Day...and we're already at the trailhead.  ;D

Depends  If the run is a social event there are never enough rigs .  If you want to make a mile and explore then 4 to 6 is enough . Enough smarts to cover the trail at a quick pace and to get out of trouble easy , anything beyond that then you have to deal with a mob mentality  . For me waiporous is easy , know all the trails so now it is a social event . Do a little wheeling then tell tall Christmas stories while some one gets unstuck or does a trail repair . I,m really looking forward to enjoy the scenery , the fresh air , the social time , maybe a camp fire at the falls  and a little wheeling. If this was a trail run down south or up north then ten would be way to much
Not all the people that say they are coming will be there and there will be some that did not post and will be there .
If you need a tail gunner or mid gunner then just volentold me.  Have an empty passenger seat .
