This is one heck of a fun park...trails for everyone and all types of rigs.

Great camping and parking area, along with clean showers and bathrooms.  Hotels and eateries are close as well.  This is always a great wheeling weekend.

Was going, but now Jeep is at dealership. Can’t make it now. New transmission, new differential, new drive is being installed. Previous owner did a number on my Jeep.

This ride’ll mark our first year in CORE. I didn’t get to make every ride I wanted to but my wheeling enjoyment increased massively during this year by goin w GATR .  ;)

I’m more stoked about this ride this year than I was last year .

Hi all, I am working to make this weekend. It will be my first ride with the club...
Friday & Saturday nights if all works out...
I’ve got a couple questions if you don’t mind. I’ll be coming with my 5 year old, anyone else bringing kids?
I’m trailering my junk, and am torn with camping vs hotel. Hotel is obviously easier but it means leaving my trailer/rig at the park (I don’t want it out front of a hotel in the middle of the night).
Is this even an option? If a bunch of the club was camping, I’d feel better about that, but also feel weird about it...
If camping, how do you guys do meals/dinner? Everyone on their own or pot luck or cold beans from a can?
I’ve only really wheeled with buddies and we all worked out food etc. together... but that was way back when, deep in the woods in Tellico...

Anyway, I’d appreciate any input. I’d like for this to be fun for my little girl so she wants to come back most every month...

Thanks...

There is no problem at all leaving rig and Trailer at AOP if you decide to stay in a hotel. Hotels are just a couple miles from the park.

I am sure GATR people will be camping but I will let them chime in.

Its usually bring whatever you want to eat.
But sometimes people do have extra & share. Restaurants are less than 5 minutes from the park.

@Truckin222
The older I've got the more hotels I stay in.
I always leave trailer and Jeep by our group
that is camping. That's another great thing
about the GATR family.

AOP is a great park for running into town to
eat or get more supplies even if you camp.

I’ll probably drive up that Saturday morning, as long as work allows. But I would trust anybody here (except big Dave. I’ve heard he’s a little sketchy ;) ) to watch over my rig if you chose to get a hotel.

and his family will do the same many more times.

On hotel subject , I'll confirm that stuff is safe at Park if you drive to go eat.

Like @Bjk77 said, many of us bring our kids.

As @Big Dave states, most times someone has extra food ( he&his family shared lunch w my daughter & I this summer on a ride!) . There is stuff to drive ( it's safe to leave yer rig and trailer while ya head either) for eating North or South of park to any of the msny restaurants near by)[/I]. I'm partial to Monteagles waffelhouse .

If you're torn, last year me & my 13yr old stayed at hotel but this year we wanna camp with the group cuz it's fun & less stressful. We didn't know what it'd be like & regretted not camping.
Bein' kinda OCD about my Jeep ,it sucked wakin-up every hour all night to make sure it wasn't messed with at hotel , lol .

I also think the opening of rifle season will dampen the attendance of the other events atbAOP, fwiw. Seen it at many TN parks each year .

Most of the times I have been to AOP, I stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Kimball, TN right there near the park.  I have parked my truck and trailer with my jeep there many times overnight and have never had any issues.

I have had no issues with the hotel parking my Ex old tj and camping with GATR you won’t regret unless you don’t camp then you will. AOP is great park and GATR is a great family Jeep club!
.... on another note I’m not able to make it and really wanted too. I’m sad as my jku is getting surgery and I’m in a 5.7 hemi ram for a rental.

I have never had an issue either but that side parking lot at the hotel can be sketchy.  I watched a latino guy in a shitty sedan pull into that parking lot every half hour, sit for 2-3 minutes, and then drive off to come back again in half an hour.  Never got out to disturb any vehicles so he wasn't there for that but not sure what he was there for...

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I figured it’d safe to leave my stuff at the park, but not knowing you guys, it’s not easy to ask... I’ve reserved a room for fri & sat nights, but may still decide to camp. Either way, it looks like Ruby & I will be there sometime Friday...
Really looking forward to it. We’ve only done day rides and am psyched to meet/ride with some new folks...

I’m planning on making this a regular thing for us. Maybe get moms to come along too. I know Ruby would be thrilled to meet other kids her age on rides.

Yeah, it's just that holiday time if the year . Sucks cuz Danny's rite ; like last year, even a bit wet , this is gonna be a blast.
I actually asked my Mom & she changed my entire families vaca ( 15 people) from the initially-planned Nov17th instead to a departure on Sun the 18th by sheer grovelling ('even had to pull-out the 'eldest-son Ace up-the-sleeve card'  for this one 😉) so cadence & I can at least be there Fri&Sat before we gotta head back to split. That's also why we're getting there Thursday early.  👍🏻

I haven't wheeled since Golden Mnt & got my crawlin Jones-on something fierce!


( Edit : Morris was after Golden Mtn. wasn't it ? -
..either way , I really want some trail time ! )

I'm in Nashville for meetings this week and drove right by the AOP exit on 24 yesterday.  In fact, I stopped at that exit to get some fuel.  It was pretty wet yesterday (Tue).  I would suspect it will be a wet weekend.

wet and freakin cold. 😒

I am checkin weather-out diligently.
 I am readying to go grab my UHaul trailer but the rain here in West Nashville just started ...supposed to continue thru until around 6am tomorrow. That is the same ,pretty-much ,for S.Pittsburg/Kimball... as you mentioned.

This weather station is close by.  They had a little over an inch Monday, nothing much yesterday, and not too much yet today but it's supposed to continue through the night.  Atlanta area had 3-4" Monday.  Looks like dry but cold and cloudy all day Thursday, so at least a day without rain.  Like Jeff said Friday and Saturday look great, so I'm hoping Friday wheeling won't be too sloppy, should dry out some for Saturday.

If I did not have the best time I have ever had in the Jeep last year with you guys, this would not be nearly as difficult a decision- I have talked about this specific ride since Feb around the house - but, KK and I not being able to be there any days except Thursday and Friday ( the nastiest weather days forcasted) is compelling me to back-out. 😢
You guys that go on Fri/Sat have a blast!

I am gonna try to hit Black Moose not-to-mention our rides in 2019.

It'll work. I talked to Amanda & we worked out logistics; once my missus gets home around 6-6:30 PM I will take off as shortly after as possible with the rear driver shaft.
 we're gonna meet just a little ways over the Mountain for them ( manchester) . '

It is 30 spline rear for non-Rubicon from an unlimited Sahara . it has tone ring and retaining blahbityblahblah on it .
 I will bring both cause if you'll cont wheelin up there in mud you're gonna bend or break the other one, too.

updates as the occur will be posted.

I have mine from 2011 JKU .
Can you bring it & hope it works?

A tone else is encouraged to bring one too if you think it might fit a 2016.


It'll work. I talked to Amanda & we worked out logistics; once my missus gets home around 6-6:30 PM I will take off as shortly after as possible with the rear driver shaft.

I’ll be leaving cumming at 7AM. Should put us there in perfect time. Turns out my alternator is fine. The light was caused by a loose battery cable.

Aside from the broken Axle and Sam’s horrible luck with tires there wasn’t much carnage. The electrical issue on longarmswj’s jk was just due to a loose positive terminal. All in all given how wet it was once you got under the leaves it wasn’t a bad day.

it means nothing but when I saw this thread down in the list of Trail Rides & Open Events [psts, I just wanted to mention that I am still not over missing this ride due to weather this year.  [no2]
