Is that a couple of hours to go through? I was just trying to get this all sorted out because I have to be back in town around 530-6. It's just under 2 hours of driving.

Yea we tend to get there around 9am or so and usually head out around 1.

Head out? Head home, you mean?

Yea back to the outpost to air up and head home.

Nice thing about URE is you could drive in hit 2 trails and be back out in under an hour if you wish or spend all day.

I am so looking forward to this Saturday.

Same here. I'm excited to put a face to some screen names.

I live on the South Carolina side of Charlotte. Uwharrie is a great place to test you vehicle and gear at. I am getting more into overlanding and drive a heavy modded 2011 Jeep Wrangler 2 door. I am planning to go to Uwharrie on the 8\18 to camp and do a little Wheeling on the 8/19. If anyone interested in meeting up let me know. Bill

That sounds like fun but I won't be around on those days. It would be awesome seeing something thats really modded hit up the trails in person.

I'm hoping to make the trek from Charleston SC for this, maybe bring a few people on the fence about joining. I think we'll camp near Badin Bay for the night. Look forward to meeting you all!

awesome! I didn't think about inviting you guys down in the Low Country! Hope to see you there! It'll be a bit muddy but should be a good time

I hope my truck will be able to handle it. Not much done to it other than a 3/2 lift and Hankook Dynapro ATMs. Still lookong forward to it. Question, is it $5 per rig to wheel or $5 per person?

You should be fine for the most part Uwharrie is stock friendly.

Well I was thinking about it and based on the amount and types of rigs we have I was thinking about our next meetup being at Brown Mountain OHV. It is for the most part wider and easier than Uwharrie, there is one section that is going to make you long wheel base guys sweat some but besides that the place is a breeze in my opinion (take that for whatever it is worth). The trails are also sandy rather than mud.

Here's is what I have so far:
-There is some great camping spots in that area. We could potentially start and meet at a campsite, setup and say our hello's.
-Then drive up Brown Mountain and have lunch at the top,
-Drive back down to camp and have a nice cookout. Whoever wants to camp can stay and those who need to go home can.

Thoughts? I was thinking the 2nd weekend of September, the 9th to be exact.

Is that at Uwharrie? That comment about long wheel guys sweating is making me nervous. I was already feeling it yesterday and you guys were saying that that was pretty easy.
