I'm off the 21/22, however Saturday wheeling at Rausch is always better, if anything goes wrong places are open, everything is closed Sunday and you can try to fix it before you have to work Monday.

I'd be available the 21 or 22 of Jan, unfortunately that following week i'll be getting ready to ship out on vacation and won't be back till Feb 8th.
I personally have not been to Rausch Creek but it seems that everyone likes it. I don't have a winch or lockers so i hope that won't stop me.

The peanut bar sounds good...actually any place with good food, atmosphere, and beer sounds good...

One thing to do here is probaly decide whether we are doing a meet and greet or a trail run. To me it seems if we decide on one or the other it would be easier to schedule. I personally think a meet and greet may be the way to go, especially with the awkward weather we are having here. It may be no snow now but likely will make a big and nasty change soon. Plus it seems to me there are several people interested but do to being stock are hesitant, I think a healthy afternoon of beer, cheese steaks, and jeep talk would be the way to go.

Rausch creek is easily doable with a stock jeep. If it snows it would be a little rougher though. If we get a bunch of people we could do 2 groups, one for stockers/beginners and one for modded/experienced. most trails there have passes though and greens are good to start out on. My vote is for Rausch just because the huge parking lot allows for a meet and greet before and after plus peanuts is there too. Just my .02

Been waiting on aev to release their new 2.5" coil lift before I pull the trigger. Plan on 37's and hopefully no bl. I want to be low and wide. And if the wife and I do move to Kentucky... No fender laws baby!
i think with only a 2.5" lift you will be rubbing alot even with flat fenders. i rub with 35" tires and a 3.5" lift.

yea weather is definitely weird right around now for this area. i'm stock but i'll run anything as long as i have a spotter. I'm down for either. Meet and greet might be better first to see who can actually do what or what they are willing to do out on the trails. idk just my .02
