Yes we will be on Cb's. We will need help with spotters and winch guys at the obstacle coarses. We will all meet up Saturday morning and put y'all in spots to help. Volunteers can work in shifts do you have time to play yourself.

Heck I don't mind doing both brother. We can help run trais for a little while, then come do recovery operations at the O course. Too easy.

Last trail runs happened today for the trails for Jeepfest in Jasper.  Trails look good and will be ready for the event in two weeks. 

Tuesday begins construction back on the obstacle courses.  We got a lot more materials ready to put down.   Gonna be great.

EveryTrail Mapping Application
 
The 3 trails for JeepFest were mapped using the tracks feature within EveryTrail. EveryTrail is a free online application with mobile clients for iPhone and Android. EveryTrail allows trekkers to share rides and trail events online while tracking trip statistics such as length of trip in miles and time, elevations and allows you to play an animation of the actual trip. You can also create custom waypoints along the way.
 
I have included the links to the EveryTrail web site as well as the links to the 3 trails we mapped for JeepFest. I am not necessarily endorsing the product but it has a very nice feature set and has served us well. You can down load the tracks to your smartphone.

I would also like to extend mucho appreciation to Brian Turner aka “jkmudder” and his team for the hard work they put into mapping and preparing the trails for JeepFest 2012.

Please note that in the event of rain or wet trails, the difficulty of the trails will increase and can most certainly increase the pucker factor. In some areas by quite a bit. Ask your trail leader.
