MORRIS MTN ORV PARK & CAMPGROUND

OPEN RIDE - EVERYONE'S INVITED

DISCUSSION ONLY




DATE :
MAY : 18th – 20th

PARK INFORMATION :

Address :
1524 Henry Davis Rd. Delta, Al  36258

Website :
http://www.morrismountainorv.com/index.htm (http://www.morrismountainorv.com/index.htm)

PARK RATES :
We are renting the entire park - this means we will have the park to ourselves //cheers2//
The total to ride is $40 per vehicle for the weekend.


AMENITIES :

- Unlimited Primitive camping
- Restrooms
- Pavilion

About Morris Mountain
The park was created from a lack of places to go wheeling.  It started as a pastime for Kris and Randy Morris and quickly grew into Morris Mountain ORV Park.  The park now has obstacles, trails, mud pits, canyons, and a primitive camping facility.

Our experience trying to find places to ride kept leading us to areas that forced you to pay for full weekends, camping facilities, or required reservations, making a spur of the moment one day wheeling trip impractical or unaffordable.  As a result,  MMORV has flexible hours and low fees to allow the average joe to take a half -day wheeling trip or a weekend long outing.

Morris Mountain ORV park will be open on the 2nd and 4th weekends of every month only.  Note this does not apply to privately rented events.

I am hopeful to make this ride.  I’ll check in when I know for sure.

MM is a fun little park. Real easy to haul too.  Trails for every rig and lots of bypasses.

As this is all new to me, I have a few questions. I just read the rules and understand that the rides are done in groups. Which level of trail will you all e riding? I’ve only had my Jeep a year and the most I’ve done is ride on the beach. I’m interested in coming to see what it’s all about and drive on the novice trails. Will I do that in a group or are those trails safe to go solo? Thanks!!

Good questions.  We never let anyone go alone on any trail. We usually break up into different group levels and each group will have at least 2 rigs, so you will have others in your group. Come on out and check it out.

Would I need to get a CB for the easier level rides?

A CB is a good idea to be able to communicate with the group. There are some handheld CB options that would work fine for this kind of ride.

Great! Ok, one more question — I have a few things I need to fix, but may not have it all completed by that weekend. If I’m not able to actually ride the trail, can I still come out and watch?

I appreciate all the info and how welcoming everyone has been. I’m really excited about driving my Jeep in the woods!

This park is perfect for your situation. Virtually every trail here has a "bypass" in order for you to avoid the larger obstacles, yet still be right there with everyone to watch all of the action up close.

CB is definitely a good idea, helps with communication with the group and always funny to listen to the "friendly" banter......

This park was my second ride with the group, I was still completely stock but was able to ride along, avoid the obstacles I didn't feel comfortable attempting, but never felt left out. Come on out. You'll have a blast. And no worries if you can't get it all fixed by then, there's bound to be a free seat somewhere. If I'm not full, you're welcome to ride along with me. But don't let that deter you from trying to get it all done. It's always more fun in the drivers seat.

I am a born again mud virgin practicing abstinence.  Sometimes It takes 4” of mud inside the Jeep to learn the hard way.

John said hotels are tight due to a Talladega event, which means not cheap over towards Anniston/Oxford (the nice hotels).  Having said that, I've stayed at the America's Best near the Morris exit before, and it's cheap and functional, but it isn't for everyone.  The owner is a wheeler, and gives a discount.  I've slept in my truck before at Morris...I don't recommend that.

My suggestion is to invest in good quality camping gear (a good tent, a great air mattress, and decent pillows), and you will get your money back in one or two trips (versus a hotel).  Plus you will get a few years of use out of that gear.

Rain is a killer for camping for me, so hotels are much better if it's raining...presuming you don't drink around the campfire. 

Since I am a drunk, I have Coleman instant up tents that can completely close up for the nasty weather, and set up in about a minute (maybe 3 minutes if I'm drinking and talking).

I’m not picky where I stay by any means. I do use a CPAP machine, so I have to research a way I can get power to it with camping.

Most camps have power, and if I am there, I usually have a small generator for a fan in my tent if it's summer.  In the winter I run an electric heater,  but I don't know how much a cpap machine draws.

As long as campsites have a power outlet I can use an extension cord for it, or I can invest in a portable battery made for them

MM has a 110(regular household) outlet on the back of  the bath house(loose term, don't get your hopes up) if you've got a 100' cord. It'll reach most anywhere you want to camp there. I ran a heater off of it in January when we were there. It was super cold.

I use one too and purchased a golf cart battery from Batteries Plus and use a DC adapter I found on cpap.com for my Resmed 9 unit. It will power the main unit without the humidifier for 2 nights.
There is good info at http://www.cpaptalk.com/CPAP-Sleep-Apnea-Forum.html

I've been there several times and haven't ever noticed any mud pits. I think @BigPrince is the only one on here that really enjoys the mud. He just loves it!

I am a born again mud virgin practicing abstinence.  Sometimes It takes 4” of mud inside the Jeep to learn the hard way.

4” of redclay mud inside the cabin is the kinda stuff my nightmares are made of . Glad you’ve reclaimed your innocence  //:o//

Just an FYI - my Jeep won’t be ready to trail ride (I need to do EVERYTHING that’s on the requirements list). My husband and I are still coming for the day to check it out. I’m looking forward to meeting y’all and getting a glimpse of fun in the trails!

Still trying to convince the wife to let me out of our plans, very unlikely to happen.

But I'll probably stick around for a while probably assist in a campfire and roll out after Atlanta traffic dies down.

Supposed to have my new gears/lockers installed next week. If it doesn’t happen, then I prob not going to make it.  ‘Hopefully is the key word. If the guy can’t put them in, where is a place I can get them installed at a reasonable price? I have the 4.88 gears, master install kits for D44/D30 and also the ARB front and rear lockers with the compressor/bracket, and the ARB diff covers.

I really look forward to this one  (all of ‘em) so I continue to focus on sunshine for us.
 The weather around middle Tennessee/ Northern Central Alabama can change on a dime so let’s hope this is one of the usual meteorological dice-rolls made presumptively & incorrectly. It’s very hard to make a forecast beyond 3-4 days out around here. By Wed we should know better.

Problem with this park is, it doesn't matter if it rains Friday or Saturday, the rain tue-Thur is enough to saturate the park and take a week to dry back out. Not saying I'm out, but I am getting a little tired of wheeling in the rain/mud.

Chris and I have ridden Morris wet and it wasn't raining when we were there. Soupy mud up hill almost needed a paddle, especially where they were clear cutting out trees. But if your willing to clean mud off the jeep for 2 hours afterwards, it's still a fun park.

I wish the damn rain could be timed differently.  The forecast shows 60% on Thu, 80% Fri and Sat.  I need to wheel, but I don't want to do it in mud and slick red clay.  It pains me to do it, but I'm out for this one.  I'm not interested in a slop fest.

Still holding out for a break in the clouds. It rained here in braselton this morning, but been bone dry the rest of the day. Today was forecast to be the worst of the rain till Sunday. I'd definitely be down for an off weekend wheeling trip. Chocco or busted knuckle would be awesome. If busted knuckles rock is anything like our family property in Huntsville, it's super slick even if there's too much humidity in the air. Never been, so I'd like to hear from someone who has, but I'm down for whatever.

If weather kills this ride, I’m up for a replacement trip somewhere decent if I have an open weekend.


Like Busted Knuckle on a Non Ride Weekend or day trip to Chocco.....?

One of my good buddies that lives up here in Cheatham Co is one of the cameramen for BK. He says it’s better in ways than AOP & a must ride park.
Fwiw,his thing is bouncers . I can’t imagine it besting aop , but then again ,  this isn’t a guy to make stuff up , either.
I just can’t get into the mud wheelin thing but am nearly desperate. I’ve looked frwrd to this for 10 weeks .
However,
I’ve  pushed my luck (& little axles ) in slick stuff every time I’ve been out in the past year & don’t feel into pinballing all over that far from home.
sheez.

I just called the Hilton Garden in Anniston just now. The girls says it really hasn't rained much this week ( spotty) , it is not raining at this very moment but it calls for about 60% this afternoon . She said everyone is anticipating the 70-80% thundershowers for Friday afternoon/evening to be the big rains but, as-we-can-tell, everything can change at drop-of-a-dime in that part of Alabama.

so, did not help much,lol //::)//

Lol, I wish. My grandfather was a rescue firefighter with the national forestry service for a long time and is a pretty hardcore land conservationist. For example, he's donated a few hundred acres in the middle of our property to a land conservation group in Alabama in order to preserve battle ground from the civil war and a plantation that was previously on the property. It took us many years just for him to agree to letting us use atv's on the property. I haven't even breached the subject of letting me hit it in the jeep. I'm going to assume that would be a non starter with him.

I like the way your thinking, but he's one of the old school gentlemen we need more of in our country. Doesn't drink. Been married to my grandmother for 62 years. Doesn't talk much, but when he does it's usually pretty impactful. I'm going to guess there's no hope for a wheeling spot on our property. I would be ashamed of myself if I ever went against his wishes.

I'm pretty sure this is the closest weather station to the park.  It's only showing .35" so far this week, we've had 2.11" at my work in Alpharetta.  I'm planning to keep an eye on it tonight into tomorrow morning, still haven't made the call.

Definitely update on the weather and your plans. I watch NOAA & this weather front from Gulf is weird & hard to predict. But I have been seeing everything from “ spotty tstorms “ to “ light, patchy rain chance” to “70% rain” for the area.
Id still be into driving down for the day if turns out it is not claysoup ...

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO GO WHEELING THIS WEEKEND READ THIS :

Go to Choccolocco or another park. We rented Morris for a private event and I don't think they will open the park for one or two rigs. Plus the private rental rate is $40 per vehicle where you can ride for half that at other parks.

MORRIS MTN WILL NOT BE OPEN THIS WEEKEND DUE TO WEATHER
