...a jkfest combo event with lots of Great Lakes members would be a huge thing.
yeah, towards the middle or End of June.

You could have a weekend event and hit Rocks and Valley on Saturday morning then Sand dunes in the afternoon - evening. Sunday morning there are two tracks thru Manistee National forest on the way to Twisted trails on Sunday afternoon.

It would be a long weekend but tons of different kinds of wheeling.
We could have our own little "Ultimate Adventure" like 4wheel mag does!!
Sounds fun.

Not a bad Idea, but I dont think we'll get alot of people, if we moved every other day.

It does sound like fun, but there would be a number of people that would only wheel in one spot or the other. Let's try to keep it to one place.

I've been to werock there as well, with 4wds pink TJ. Cool place, but it's 12 hours from me :(

There are a lot of great suggestions. They all sound good to me. I like the multi-day multi-place idea like wings fan suggested...but, a lot of people probably wouldn't make it to all the different places. I like the idea of two events this year again. Maybe one in TN, like you suggeted Derek, or one of the Southern Indiana parks...and the other up north, one of the MI places or something. That way, anyone who can't make both will still be able to chose the one closest to them. We'd probably have a good turn out at both of them. I'd make it to both.

I do like the idea of one south and then one north. Keep the suggestions coming.

I just looked up Interlake in southern IN. That place looks great and it is completely FREE! (State Owned OHV park) I think that should be a strong contender.

MAP


You Tube Interlake to see some videos of the place.
