Hello everyone,
Me, the wife, and my 2 boys are planning on coming down in our stock jeep. This will be the first time going to the badlands and we are real excited. I know we have to get a flag which I plan on picking up at the park. Is there anthing else we need to bring, except the candy of course.
Last question, do I need to email to sign up for this?

You can save yourself about $10 by getting a flag at Wal-Mart in the bicycle department.

I always take some basic tools. Extra set of clothes including shoes...just in case I get soaked or covered in mud. Food and drinks. Toilet paper is always a good idea...never know when the portajohn is out. A CB is good to have, but not a must if it's your first time out. A towstrap.

No you don't need to email to sign up.

You'll have a blast, trust me.

x2 that! My first time wheelin was with these guys (and gals) last month. Very respectful, helpful and just all around great! I'm trying to work out the details (aka begging the wife to let me go).

Has there been any meeting place determined for Saturday morning for the Chicago burbs? Any info would help! Thanks!

What will the "Advanced" trails consist of?
I finally finished the the Rubi today and I must say, OME springs and shocks ride waaaay better than stock. Even on 33's.
Can't wait for this weekend.

The 2 trails we'll only run is "The Creek" and our "Haunted Trail"

ALL the groups will run the Same Exact Trails mentioned above.

The groups has nothing to do with being an advanced driver to a beginner driver.
I wanted our groups to be organized so, we can have 3 groups.

Well I am ready. Took me 10 hours to remove, paint, and reinstall rockers and winch mount/stinger bumper, well worth it.

Looking foward to this weekend. Can't show the decor yet.

i'm going to assume that people not going out on the first run at 1130 can play in the quarry or the dunes while they're waiting? I'm going to do the later group even though I have some lift because I'm bringing a friend (with jeep) and he's new so I'm going to go on that run with him.
