I’d be interested. I have a stock JKU Rubicon so I don’t want to hold you guys back from doing anything more intense. Will I be good.
A JKU has already lockers in both differentials and the disconnecting sway bar, so you are better prepared that a JKU non-Rubicon. But I agree you should avoid the more difficult obstacles.

Bring her, this should be a very scenic ride.

the grandparents. Lol

Cue the dumb newbie questions:

Start time?
Meeting location?

Recommended best place/person to get a crash course in GMRS radios? Looking to "buy once, cry once" rather than just purchase a cheapie to make this ride. Scanned the cb subforum, and it seems like some members have settled in on a couple of favorites through trial and error. Shamelessly looking to benefit from that knowledge.

You can get gets radio on amazon for under 40$. Boafang’s are a good radio. Most of the time someone will have a cb in their rig.

If I can make it, I’ll have both radios(CB and GMRS) with me.

For any of the newer poeple that drive new, newish, stock jeeps this is the perfect ride for y'all to get out on. Also, if you have wives, husbands, girlfriends, boyfriends or kids that normally don't like camping and or the rough scary trails this would also be a good ride for them as well. It's the perfect opportunity to see the North GA scenery.
