Hortense, GA? Any information on the park. I cannot make it now, but perhaps at some point in the future when the gas prices settle.

Looks like where I'm from in Florida! Water and mud like that require big tires and a little more power than the mighty 3.8 we have

Yah I dunno. My husband was talkin about gettin me a chevy with a big block for down here and muddin.

I just wanna go camping and take my jeep and go wheeling at the same time too .. Tellico too long a wait. But my jeep ain't going anywhere soon, until I get the new parts for it, one part for steering and one part for my driveshaft ... ahhhhh.

It'd be fun to watch pepole get stuck though, what we used to do up in washington .. we'd go out and just watch person after person get stuck in Mud Lake

I used to love to go see the mud bogging when I lived in Minnesota. They're doing a mud bog up in Gore later this month, but when I went a year ago it was really just a hole they dug up and made sloppy. It wasn't a real mud bog.

But, as far as participating, forget it. Done that, hated the after effects.

yes... see thread here...https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/south-49/who-ready-start-camping-season-56138/

this is private property so I will need to escort... light triail to the camp sight and a decent creek run with some fun rocks to play on.
