Getting an ohv permit about $11.50 and it can be had at The Gales Creek gas station on the way there. We plan going with two groups. One stock or near stock for trails and another group for modified. Basic/stock group should have tow points front and rear, spare tire and a vehicle in decent working condition. If you are looking for a trail run that will keep out of trouble and have fun for the first time, this is it.
I'll make sure you are not put in any position you don't want to do...
Besides I don't have a decent lift yet.
I hope you can make it.

Do the Arnie Schwarzeneger thing...I'll be back!!! I think I'm likin' your new rig. Where are the pics! After I talked to you the other day I'll shot Dave and email and ordered the Poison Spyder Evap skid. Hopefully we'll thaw before it gets here. how bad did it get on you down there? We got maybe 3" but it is still pretty chilly.

We truly hope it warms up enough to thaw the roads. We're scootin' around in 4WD just to get out of the neighborhood.

We are clear down I-5... The house just has a dusting. All the roads local are 2wd.
Above 500ft, things change at higher elevations though.
Hey, if things don't get better up there? there's always the tree run... Looking like the second Saturday of December.

OHV Permit: Check
Two Tow Points (Front): Check
Two Tow Points (Rear): Just 1 in the back
Spare Tire: Check
Decent running Jeep: Check
Hi-Lift: Check

It would just come down to me actually waking up early enough to get out there.

Wow. Snow at the day use area was a couple of inches. Up at the top of Fire Break 5 was probably 3 feet. What a blast! Pics will come soon. 2 groups left our from Browns camp. We were in the 2nd group.
