Title: camping trip/ Forest ride June 4,5,6
Post by: rockcrusher on May 14, 2010, 01:11:42 PM
I am planning a weekend camping trip to Helen area. Going to be doing some light wheeling like Tray Mt., Wildcat creek, warwoman WMA . I've posted it on  cherokeetalk.com  and now posting on here. Not sure what weekend we are going, but I will be taking a friday off and leave around lunch time depending on how many people want to go will depend on where we stay. I would like to stay a sleep hollow camp ground its $20 a night and they have showerrs and bath rooms, pond and no people in the back where I stay. We can fit more people there and I can reserve the site unlike staying at  on of the wma  and the are $10 a night. Let me know. I believe that it will be next month June. I will post a date  asap
thanks

Week and a half before we go!!!! Dose anybody need directions. I'll be leaving around 10 a.m on the 4th, I should be pulling in to Helen around 12:00- 12:45. dose anyone want to meet in Helen or dose everyone just want to meet at the camp site. I know this is still a week out I just want to make sure that we hold enough camp sites. So if everyone that going can list your name and how many people are coming with you.

We rode a few F/S roads today. The woods were very crowded but we still had a good time. We ran into a thunderstorm so it cut our trip a lil short. The black xj has a tbi 350 with ax-15 trans, dana 44 rear, a/c and etc..... It is the first xj I have seen done like that and I have to say I like it pretty good.

Yeah it was me, I heard you holler for the gatrailriders but i thought it was one of our crew. I hollered back and no one and answered. I was there from 10-bout 4 on sunday July 4th. But this thread is for June 4th not July,  {hihi}
