Dates of Meet n Greet are July 22-24 and base camp will be Hannah Flats in Fawn Skin right next to Big Bear. I chose these dates to not conflict with a large bicycle event in Big Bear the following weekend which is normally the weekend of our runs. Further details will be added as time gets closer.

I will be there of course in one fashion or another, but may not be wheeling due to my YJ having issues with the engine deciding to come close to giving up the ghost and needing to budget a replacement has been a bit of a hassle. So, lets start planning who will attend, what trails they choose and all the other fun stuff the Meet n Greets have become known for.


Many members arrive either Thursday evening or Friday throughout the day. The main runs are on Saturday with the biggest groups, with normally a night run on Friday for those interested. After the Saturday runs, there will be a potluck dinner near the cabins with plenty of delicious items. If you have a favorite family recipe you want to share, please post up what you will bring and we will get a list of items posted.

Of course we welcome members from all skill and vehicle build levels, from factory stock to full build status. We will also have the after wheeling favorite pot luck dinner/cocktail hour and chat around the fire. So start checking your calendars for availability.

Standard Rules For Turdfest Events.

Rules as follows.

1: NO DRINKING ON THE TRAILS
2: Have a fire extinguisher within reach of yourself or others.
3: First aid kit in your rig, within easy access.
4: Spare tire within 2" of tires on rig.
5: CB radio on board.
6: Recovery points front and rear of vehicle.

Just as a reminder, off roading is inherently risky and stuff can/does happen. While we will not leave anyone as coyote bait, each member is ultimately responsible for their own well being on the trail and at camp. If one should get physical damage to their vehicle or person, the volunteers helping with the Meet n Greet are not responsible for anyone else's actions beyond their own.

Trail 1. John Bull Led by RKKRAWL Group Capped

Meet at 9:00 AM on 3N02 just off of 3N16 toward Gold Mountain. Be aired down and ready to go, be sure to have required equipment and bring water and lunch. If you have them wear good hiking boots, John Bull is really slick and it's easy to fall on the rocks with tennis shoes. CB channel 23. See you all there, it should be fun.

Cap run at 10 vehicles, 33" tires, rear locker, tow points front and rear, snatch strap, winch preferred but not absolutely required.

Trail 3 Beginner Led By JKScofield. Requirements are open from bone stock but must have basics listed at top of first post.

Gold Mountain/White Mountain. (As a side note, Gold Mountain has gotten a little tougher than the past and the easy line is no longer on the far left of the first water fall. Any participating members should know that there is a chance of belly pan scrapes and body damage. Our hobby is full of risks. Be prepared to scuff your baby if necessary).
