you will be asked to leave if you violate this rule. If you can't
have fun without these don't
come at all. A beer or two at night is a different matter.
We will assemble at 9 am both days and run to the trails as soon as we are ready.
HINT: Fill your rig up with Gas before you come out to the campground.
There are NO gas stations
in town. The nearest is in Easthampton or Leeds. I will supply a
compressor for airing up at my
House both days. Sunday we can gas up on the way to the trail if
need be. Also I will make my work
shop available for repairs. (Welding too.)
Trails- Sat: #1 trail, - Rocky/granite ledges/mud holes , , Challenging/extreme
in
places. You would beatup a stocker badly on this trail. If we finish
this at a decent hour we will be doing special tests, challenges
for prizes.
Sunday : #2 trail- (Tentative) - ledges/climbs , there is
one section (The Rock garden) that unless you have 2 lockers/33's/
winch you will just spectate. Expect breakage if you run this part.
(There is a road that go's around too so we can go up top and watch
them break their trucks...) and have lunch.
This will be an all day run/ if everyone wants to leave early on Sun then
I
will choose another trail closer to The campground.
