I'm in. Coming from Lancaster and will arrive on Saturday 4/2. I'm camping and bringing a total of three people in my group.

Who wants to take point on Friday?

 

[powerhouseduece]

I will be in with the m818 and the trailer as usual. It will be me ant the old lady. We shold be arriving thursday night or early friday am. I will have the grill and the honda genset.

 

[kastein]

Hoping to make it but not sure I can. If I do, I'll get there ultra late Friday. Might end up driving one of the little jeeps, or drive the M54, or drive the M54 with one of the little jeeps in the back.

Count my clan in. We'll be there early Saturday morning. Can't stay over night. Might sound crazy but if you guys think it might come in handy, I could bring out the Miller 250 bobcat welder/generator. Thought it might come in handy for emergency repairs. Just let me know. We'll have about 10 in my group and one M36a2.

 

[spicergear]

I should be able to make it in the 406. Still working on if it will be two days or not. Saturday for sure.

 

[PaFarmer]

Count me in.

 

[MAXM37]

I'm in, bringing M37
Sat morning to Sunday, looking forward to it again

 

[vinnies10]

Im in.Bringing the m35a2 . Be there first thing sat morning till Sunday. What should i bring?

 

[kassim503]

Count me in! Ill be there sometime during the weekend

 

[powerhouseduece]

Im in. Be there first thing sat morning. What should i bring?

Every thing you think you'll need to survive the weekend. It is primitive camping, no electric or water so bring plenty. Past 5 trips I have brought a Honda es300 genset. It's quiet enough to run next to the trailer and hardly hear it and powerful enough to run the block heater on my truck and a dozen cellphone chargers.

Bring all the food you think you'll need, as well as your own booze. Once the trail ride is complete for the day, it is automatically beer:30!!



So far, the plan is for the ball&chain and I to leave at 3am Friday morning to beat traffic and also get some wheel time in during the day. Anyone plan on being there Thursday night to get our spots? Any preference on camp site location?

 

[maddawg308]

I'm in - not sure whether my truck will be there or not. Arriving Friday late morning, stay until Sunday morning.

 

[03silverado]

Me and the wifey will be there probably leaving thursday after work bringing the M813A1 W/W and the M105A2
