This overlanding trip is limited to 10 vehicles due to camping and logistics with 4 spots remaining. We are asking for real commitments on this trip. Its a 4 hour drive to get to the starting point. and 3 hours home. If your situation changes, let the group know ASAP to give another a chance. There will be minimal out of pocket costs on this trip and there will be a few meals eaten out. Wheeling should be very easy for stock and up with very little change of trail damage. Scenery should be amazing. Pets are ok too.

General Notes: (this will be refined over time.
None of the places and we will camp at have a bathroom. Pack it in and pack it out tread lightly.
Have your own way to air up/down. 12v air compressor.
Have your own simple way of storing and cooking your own food.
Prior to going on this trip, do a complete gear and vehicle inspection. Including fluids, a bolt check and knowing that you're sleeping arrangements are comfortable.
Clear all check engine lights, fix all previous trail repairs. Bring your own water and beer.
Most of the areas don't have cell phone coverage. If you don't have a GMRS radio look into purchasing at least a hand held. Club has 2 loaners and there will likely be other spares.
