Meeting up for a bit of camping and wheeling on beautiful George Washington National Forest. Meeting at the rally point doesn't demand too much from your rig, but the rest of the trails and turn off can range from easy to hard. So while the main trail can be made with a stock subaru, or even a 2wd pickup, the side trails demand a little more.

Either way, join is for a fun weekend of exploring, scavenger hunting, grillin, and overlanding!

Sounds like a fun weekend! I've never been out that way and hope my Taco can handle it, but I may swing out that weekend also.

Glad to hear it! A stock Taco can certainly handle most of the trails with ease, so you will have no problem. Look forward to seeing you there!

Thinking about joining this one as well.
Do ya'll already have permits for the trail? Or will that be a stop before the trail head?
Then again may meet ya'll on Saturday and make it a day trip.

Cheers!

So for these trails you dont need a permit for licensed vehicles. So no need to pick any up. Hope to see ya there, itll be a jolly good time!

I'll br packing up Sunday, but plan on doing a morning run first. There will also be a couple of night rides, so youbwill definitely get some trail time if you join in Saturday evening!
