Title: Jasper Jeep Fest rain!
Post by: Cannonballkev on September 04, 2015, 06:11:02 PM
For any of y'all that were at or going to the jeep fest in Jasper at about 530 and got caught in a major sideways thunderstorm with hail, and had their tops down. ( several were at QT seeking cover ).

I just wanted you to know that about a mile north, it was dry as a bone!
Sun was shining the whole time it was raining!

Yep, great for the charity.  I agree with Doug though, I was only slightly tempted to go back after last year.  I probably would have gone up there today if the forecast was clear.  Hope the weather holds out for the event though.

I went up to check it out. Didn't bother with any trails, just walked around and checked out the vendors and obstacle course.

Great day up there yesterday, last night & today. Weather was perfect.  The obstacle course was a muddy mess (parking area too) but had alot of fun.
All for a great & deserving cause.

Got to see Kevins TJ in action, somewhat. My XJ came out in one piece,  so to me, it was a success.

How so?

I went up today with grandson Jax, had a real good time. Didn't trail ride, but took Jackson all over the obstacle course...he had a blast.

I saw quite a few GATR faces I haven't seen a while. It didn't seem mismanaged to me, although I didn't go on any of the trail rides

Not miss managed just a lot of jeeps and people having to be recovered. A lot where people hit mud hole that they shouldn't have.

We went on Saturday and visited the vendors and watched some peoples screw up their jeeps in the mud hole. Had a good time. It was nice to meet some vendors that actually make their wares in America. I didn't ride any trails after getting stuck in the traffic jam for 1.5 hours trying to get in.
