Cool . that's my stomping ground.

We are attending the Expo East, but could tag on a few days afterward, definitely cannot do an additional 8 days. That whole work thing.

A few of our group are still on the fence about the Expo, if we go we'll probably do the whole experience though.

Would be good to have someone else familiar with the area, we've only been a couple times to the area. I'm headed back in a couple weeks to get a bit of scouting in.

let me know what you work out. We can meet up maybe in Morgantown if you want company. We can dirt hop the way down from there with some pretty cool stuff to Davis.

If I can swing it I’ll let you know, running a tight schedule so may only get to scout one of the 3 days

Hey @SJ.Overland My 70 series LandCrusier is lifted and capable, but it doesn't have armor or sliders. Will I have regrets on this trip? Thanks.

 

[SJ.Overland]

You should be fine, armor is more meant for those without a Lift and upsized tires. To be honest I only know about 60% of the route I have built. So there’s a possibility we may get into stuff where we may need to call an audible on the trail. But from my research we should be fine. I plan to get out there in a week or so and at least see some of the area I don’t know about.

Interested and watching this thread. A lot depends on when it happens. You know, those annoying adulting life commitments.

I’ve done a fair amount of exploring in the GW and Jefferson forests, at least the northern sections if you want to pm me.

I’ll reach out after this weekend. I will be in that area (in the northern bit) on a getaway trip with College buddies, trail riding isn’t on the docket for them, but if I get the chance I’ll sneak away for an afternoon.

Following, nice to have some decent trails close to home.

Sounds fun....gonna watch this to see how it plays out. Love the idea of this one

 

[SJ.Overland]

I did not get to check out all of what I wanted, but I got to the area's I've been before to at least see what's changed in the past 7 or so months. Got some decent footage of the high points again though.

Do either of you guys have some good coordinates to start? I'd like to go out before for a weekend or two

This is a fun area to explore. I'd love to go if a spot opens up.

I’d say just explore around Flagpole knob. That’s where I started when I first went out. Then make your way towards other areas.

 

[Waaazooo]

If this may be fullsize rig capable (trail width) wise I’m interested

 

[SJ.Overland]

Due to budgeting, I will not be attending Expo East now. I’m going to cancel this Rally Point, there’s still a possibility I may be able to make the trip, but I will recreate this if I end up running it.
