RIDE PLANS :
FRIDAY: park opens at 8am...members will arrive throughout the day to set up camp and wheel. There will be no structured Friday rides. Get together with those that are there and work out wheeling plans. Camp fires and what not Friday night at sundown. GaTR ride rules apply to all that come Friday and wheel as a GaTR club member.
SATURDAY: 9:30am(Alabama time) riders meeting. We will break into groups of like wheeling capabilities and head out to hit the rocks. The park is not too big so lunch can be back at the camp sites at 1pm. After lunch we can re-group, stay in the same groups, make bigger groups, smaller groups, whatever may seem to make the wheeling better. Wheel for the rest of the day. Camp fires and more what not at sun down. Maybe a little night wheeling if a group feels up to it.

I can get both Marriotts 80/night right now. Check Marriott.com as I'm not sure if it's my status or that's just normal(hopefully).
Which property?

I booked the Fairfield right off of I-20. I chose the $94 rate that can be cancelled up to 1 day in advance. I can change if there is consensus on another place everyone is staying and lobby party.Just stayed there for Morris. Good setup for a lobby party. Ask me how I know.

josh (JvC) and I are leaving Ohio on Thursday afternoon, 2/9. will spend the night somewhere in Tennessee, depending on how long we drive, probably just north of Chattanooga. Were both trailering our rigs. We will probably arrive in camping area around 10, CST, on Friday morning. we will probably just hang, unless someone gets there Friday afternoon and wants to go for a ride.
Damn that's a hell of a drive.

I'm thinking about making this ride also, only dilemma is that I'm still running a stock rig and not too sure of how many trails I'll be able to run.

well I've looked at the boat ramp on YouTube, looks sorta tough, (slick) but WTH, I'm in. also looked at hells revenge, we doing that or is that part of a trail planned on this trip?
You can hit every trail if you wheel part of Friday and Saturday.
Here's a map with all of the trail names. Keep in mind, most of the red trails are actually red (like buggy in 5th gear red) //NASTY//

thanks for the info, the map is great. I'm really looking forward to meeting you guys and doing some wheeling with you. hope its warmer there than here.
I grew up in Ohio. Anyway, some favorite trails - Cherry Bomb, Playground, Rubicon, Tee Pee, Tombstone (the short blue section). Also there is a downloadable Avenza pdf map as well for the gps mapping app if you have it. If you don't, get it.

Wasn't the Forecast for 20-30% Chance of rain when we rode Morris? Never rained on me, but it was muddy as hell.
We were supposed to have a monsoon at Hale last year on Saturday...we got almost zero rain and it was a great day of wheeling. Good night wheeling to as a matter of fact!

I had an invite on FB from another group of GA Jeepers also planning to go to Chocco the same weekend. I'm not worried about it because it's not like we rented the park for the weekend. There are always other groups at the park on the weekends.
I have a friend in that club so I joined their FB page. What a bunch of PC pansies. Someone posted a ghetto JK with 26" rims and if you even replied "ugly", the deleted your post. They ended up deleting the entire thread.

If we're talking about 'The' big GA Jeepers club on Facebook, f'ck those p'ssys. I normally try to refrain from using derogatory language but they pulled that PC crap on me when I called them out on a thread - horrible jeep builds, ghetto or shitty, can't say anything negative. I HATE they use Church and Jeeps together. If they want to be a Christian first club there is NO excuse for leaving it out of their name except they KNOW it will lower their membership and swag sales which is what it is all about, not the Church. I deleted that group from my facebook and a couple others and I have truly be blessed for it as I no longer have to see all the shitty builds and dumber than rocks questions that popped up every day. Sorry to go nuclear on this post but I am thankful there is a group like this one to ride and share fellowship with and I'm looking forward to this ride though I'm also really kicking myself I haven't fixed the bent control arm or front driver side issue (maybe UB bad don't know). Thinking I'll just trailer it to Chocco, hope for the best, and see if 4x4King wants to take my trailer back to the shop for a fee.
Nail, head - you hit it. I was like, WTF? Read the very first sticky post. They have 17k members and 5 likes on that. LMAO

I got to work, so if I did I wouldn't get there until 10ish. I plan on coming up Saturday morning and getting there 8-8:30. I could be convinced to get there earlier if anyone wants to meet somewhere for breakfast...
I'll probably still camp if we have a sat night ride, if not I'll just make the journey home that evening.

Yes, that is part of Hells Revenge. It is not a trail that anyone has to get on. There is a place to turn around and go another route just prior to the trail.

I'm debating on whether to take Friday off and get there early or leave at lunch.The problem with a lunch departure is you may very a couple of hours of riding in, but if you leave early in the morning you can get the entire day, since this crew will be there early this time. Usually being there in the morning means messing around until th late morning crew shows up.

What time do you guys plan to head out on the Trail Friday morning? If necessary we can leave a little earlier to ensure we get there on time.I would anticipate no earlier than 9am local time. When we roll out, we can ease into things and maybe make our way to Rubicon trail to start the day...

35 to 41 "Tombstone" to 34 "Rubicon". At the end of Rubicon come down 7 and we will be at the bottom of Tee Pee. We can go up Tee Pee (or 7 which is the bypass). At the top of tee pee, go left. Take 23 "M&M" down, right on 41, left on 4 (intersect with 5), stay on 4. Left up 32 "Redneck", go right on 29 Playground (it's the little blue loop) and then left at the top to back on your course at top go left on 5, left on 4, pass redneck to 61 "Hillbilly", at top go left on 5, left on 4 pass redneck and hillbilly, left on 28 "pick your poison". At top, left on 29, left on 5, left on 4. Go check out Boat ramp. Anyone game? Then we can go on 41 to the climb "Tombstone". At the top, left on 41 to 12, left on 51, down 7, take a right to 54 "Buzzards Loop". This will take us past 9 "Chainsaw" and then 40 "Terminator". Take rights at the top of either and take 51 to 7 and rinse and repeat. We continue on 54 and then check out Execute. Loop back on 51 to 7 and then follow 35 to a right on 14 then a right on 1 and we can then check out 19 "hells revenge" Between Hells and Cherry Bomb we could run up 15 and hit 8 Carnage Canyon real quick. It's a fun little creek bed
and then 10 "cherry bomb"

Friday crew. Here is a suggested trail plan (we used this route last April and we had fun). I'm open to any/all suggestions.Sounds like a plan. Other than Hells but what the "Hell". Have we ever done Chainsaw?

I honestly don't remember whether we did Chainsaw. All of this is a guideline, we will assess conditions and adjust accordingly. I also realize that my post references the "old" out of date map. I will review on the Avenza map and update later this week.

For those people camping Friday night. Do you typically set up in the wooded campground, scenic campground, lower campground, or overlook campground. And are there actual camp sites or just an open area and make your own spot kind of thing?I don't know the name of it, but they usually camp at the top of the hill, above the secondary parking lot, to the left when you come up the main drag (the outhouse / main parking lot will be on the either).

Does anybody have an accurate map of the place? It seems like the last time that I was there which was year before last, there was trails that were not even found on the map. Not to mention we had to navigate down a very very steep hill that was a great test of how good my brakes not to mention nerves were.
It looks like you need the Avenza stuff, but remember there is a problem with the Avenza relationship with the vendor of the maps, so spend wisely.

JvC and I, 8:30a CST, at campsite Friday. He has blue 350 I have a red 250, so if someone in the group sees us meandering around looking lost, flag us down please. LOL.If it hasn't been mentioned...GoogleMaps is accurate, as is my Garmin. You will think you're in the wrong area since you have to drive through a residential neighborhood (old school neighborhood) before you encounter the path to the mountain. Slow driving from the time you enter town, since it is a college town and mainly residential area.

We're not very formal on the drivers meeting on Fridays depending on the group. Just cover a few important things.
It shouldn't be too hard to hit the top of the hill and call out to us on Channel 7 if you're late, or for those that arrive earlier than expected.

Damn, is it Friday! The days leading up to a ride are tough.
I'll be PM'ing my Jeep tonight and tomorrow night. I had a rattle at low speed that was driving me crazy. It took a while to find, but it was a loose bolt on the RROR transfer case skid. I went through and retorqued all of them. Need to give the whole rig a once over.
Got a new brake installed on the mini bike last night. The one that came with the kit sucked and wouldn't stop the damn thing. This is a band brake that goes around the clutch and will lock up the rear wheel. I'll be brining it with me.

Guys I am going to have to Bail unfortunately. I have been chasing a leaking tire that I think I have isolated to a bad stem, although the bead leaks a little too. Its the tire that I popped the bead on last month at Morris. I just haven't had time or energy to deal with it.

For those that are camping, they are calling for rain on Sunday. I hope it holds off until you get packed up!
Just decided to camp instead of doing the Hampton. Even though they had a 48 hour cancellation, they allow me to cancel since I'm an Honors Member.
Feel better Jimbo @Blue J , probably a smart move!

Guys I am going to have to Bail unfortunately. I have been chasing a leaking tire that I think I have isolated to a bad stem, although the bead leaks a little too. Its the tire that I popped the bead on last month at Morris. I just haven't had time or energy to deal with it.

That's the only reason there is uncertainty. No kids if I'm camping, but not 100% either way

Ok. So Mark and I arrived at the Hampton Inn about 20 min ago. This place is nice and pretty new.
