Does anyone have a SWR they can bring this weekend so I can tune my CB?  My transmit was really bad at D-town, and I think it was because of a poor ground to the antenna.  I've run a new ground to the frame.  But I'd like to put a SWR on it and do it right.

I've got one I'll bring along!

Looking forward to going - doing a lot of work on the Jeep and still lots more to do, I don't like cutting it this close.

For those camping, are we each getting our own camp site or is there a reserved section/multiple tents per site?

I'll try some of the harder stuff. It'll be a while after this one before I get out for another one, so I'll play on the hard stuff.

Is everyone going to be pounding on the rocks or will there be some folks on the easier stuff for beginners like me?

There will be some folks on the easier stuff.  The good thing about most of the parks is that if you run into something you are not comfortable with trying, you can usually turn around and/or find an alternate way around the obstacle and easily meet back up with the group.  Tellico is the only place I have been where that wasn't really the case (RIP Tellico).  Beasley is kind of like that too.  I haven't been to Gulches though so I can't say for sure.

You will be fine. There is alot of trails to have fun on for beginners.
These are from when I went last year. There was alot that I didn't
take pictures. Some small little sandy mounds(hills) by the river
and more trails like I did take pictures of. Pretty good bit of room
to navigate if we do have 2 groups.

Jared, I can bring my meter.

I've got one I'll bring along!

Appreciate it, guys!

Harder. Don't want to kill it just see if it will stay together.

Brian, I will try some stuff, I will be shaking down my 60, but I still haven't put an antiwrap and removed the stupid blocks on the rear so to much rear axle wrap always turns into a broken pinion yoke for me. But providing the front end feels good and isn't making awful noises, I will ride some of the more harder stuff. I will be glad to shoot pictures for ya, and won't even try to get you to put it on the lid this time. {toast}

I got the new tires today, so if it's cool I would like to get out, meet everyone, & go Wheelin!

[dstilli1]

The beginner stuf isn't going to be so easy its boring is it?

[tjsahara00]

I don't think you will be bored

[Wazmo]

I am locked in the front. I'm pumped!
