[Matt]

Hey guys, I never been wheeling before really,
but i just got a 2009 JKU Rubi with 2"BB and 35s A/T
You think Ill be alright? I really want to go. Will you guys
help me out??

You will be more than alright. Plenty of us will spot for you and answer your questions. This is a great park because there are plenty of bypass to take until you get comfortable to try some obstacles.

As far as your jeep that is more than capable than alot of jeeps

First post on here.  Hello everyone.

Just got an 11 jk saraha with 33 mickey Thompsons.  This ride sounds pretty fun. If we (wife and kids) cant (read wife wont) camp out, are there hotels in the area or is it possible just to do a day and night ride in Friday or Saturday?
 
Just curious cause my kids (i mean i)  //SLAMIN//really enjoy being in the dirt with this Jeep lol

Sent off camber

Im so excited i actually got premission to go.   {cheers2}    I need a fun weekend.   {popcorn}

Ah maybe for me now. Might be picking up a trailer in the next day or 2 and that will make things so much easier. Anyone spare a tree or 2 at their campsite for a hammock?

Dumb question:  what do you guys do with gray water dumping for the campsites, should I bring something to collect it in?  Food bits can be sealed up and disposed, but I have never had to care for the waste water.

I generally find dougs camp site and put it close to his sleeping bag.  but.. thats just me.   {btt} </LMAO/>

The park has a bathroom at the front and a few porta toilets in the park at different locations

I think they are meaning for anyone who brings a camper all though they to could use Dougs sleeping bag too

They also have a air up station and a wash station.  so when we are done, we can hose down and air up for the trip home.    very very nice.  imo.     the bathroom has a shower also, if you wake up early and
feel the need to freshen up.   as well as some snacks.  they use the honor system.  you put ur money in a can for stuff you get.   oo. and a microwave some of the stuff in the frige. like gas-station burgers u heat up and such.   

I personally like the park.  the staff was super helpful last year.    are they planning on leading us on another nite ride.  last time that was super fun..
