Title: Choccolocco Mountain - Memorial Day Weekend 2018
Post by: Cochese on May 24, 2018, 08:27:13 AM
A few of us from Atlanta headed to Choccolocco Mountain this Memorial Day weekend.
Morris Mountain will be full with the annual ride so we are spilling over across the "street".
Anyone else going to be there?

Great cause, no question.

But if the objective is to wheel, terrible park with all the rain. It’s all red clay and doesn’t dry well.  Wouldn’t be my choice.

This is off the table as an option for me based on the forecast.  Too risky for me to burn 5 hrs of round trip drive time. 

Hope the weather works out for anyone going.

I thought about it, but that red clay mud at that park would ruin any chance of wheeling today. Chocco atleast has that sandy soil so it should be fairly decent. Especially for me. Open/open. Stock rig basically

It's not that bad, as it's made out to be. It's steeper there and wheel speed will be key. Have fun man.

This is true. The tracker struggled on the steep trails due to the sandy dirt. On the rocks it had traction for days.

Wifes mom just called - they want to get together tomorrow rather than Monday because of the weather for Memorial Day cookout so looks like I have to go do that. Wish these weather men would make up their minds - 80% chance of t storms today and we barely saw a 5 min shower

All good. Had my nephews high school graduation today or I would’ve headed over this morning.

If anyone else is up for wheeling tomorrow let me know. I’d love to get out.
