Rallywagon Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 I hope to make it with the family. Lots of gravel roads in the immediate area, and some serious off roading just 55 minutes away. You may want to make reservations at Davidson River Campground, because it can be pretty popular this close to leaf season. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on3letsgo Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 better not count on me. now that school has started i have no money & have to work on saturdays. It would be nice to get out of the city though. That area is SOOOO nice!! I heard about an interest in going to Uwharrie on the Forester board. I'll call in sick to see that! But there is so much to do in the Pisgah NF. The last time i was headed up there in my Jeep for a 4x4 trip the motor blew up and my buddy broke his shock mount on his CJ7 on the trail.

carljwnc Posted August 17, 2004 Author Share Posted August 17, 2004 the goat, Hope to see you, I know how the work thing goes, hopefully they will let you off for one little weekend. Rallywagon, are you refering to the off-road in Sylva??? or where we went in Lake Lure??? It would be nice to do a little off-road excursion if we can. It will also be nice to meet the rest of your family. on3letsgo, I also know how the school thing goes, I just graduated (WHOOHOO!!!), you can always skip school and come anyway;) , if not we will be doing this again the first weekend in May.

Rallywagon Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 Carl, It's probably gonna be me and the boys...wife has a baby shower to host. I was thinking about towards Sylva. This link MAY show you the area where 3 trails start at the end of Caney Fork Rd. Rough Butt is one trail that is great, but it might be too much for the roos. It is pretty tough terrrain, so I will have to take it easy having my sons with me. But I hope you and maybe others can ride over there after lunch on Sept. 25. I've got to get some things fixed on my Roo before then! http://mapserver.maptech.com/homepage/index.cfm?lat=35.32916&lon=-83.0334292&scale=24000&zoom=50&type=1&height=498&width=498&icon=0&searchscope=dom&CFID=2279979&CFTOKEN=87269559&scriptfile=http://mapserver.maptech.com/homepage/index.cfm&bpid=MAP0060030900%2C1%2C1%2C0&latlontype=DMS Later, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carljwnc Posted August 19, 2004 Author Share Posted August 19, 2004 Scott, I don't know just yet how hard core off-road I'll want to get. I may be.......this is exciting and slightly embarassing.........a New-Schooler!!! You know whats coming;) . I would like to get a bit more extreme than the gravel roads though, but if everything goes right this meet may be the first dirt the new car sees. If I still have the '83, lets go for it.

carljwnc Posted August 26, 2004 Author Share Posted August 26, 2004 Sounds like we have an eight car count so far, plus some definite maybe's, and some others 'hemmin-and-hawin' in the background. I may have a brand new Forester XT to drive by then (deposit has been paid), or I may be old-school in the GL. Bumpity-Bump, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvdrt Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Man I wish I could make it. I cannot as funds are very tight. I am in the process of selling my house, new baby, moveing, finding a job, etc..... If only it was the croatan national forrest. All you NC guys should check into that place. Lots of dirt/gravel trails, and more mud than you can imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksonville could be a good place for a future meet, any dune driving action??? I am, however, more of a mud/rock kind of guy. Any of that???

carljwnc Posted August 20, 2005 Author Share Posted August 20, 2005 Thank you, I will be trying to get to as many meets as I can, especially after I get something modded out:) No modding needed for the Tellico meet, your '83 will be more capeable than what will be mostly Foresters attending. My previous car was an '83 GL wagon and I certainly ran it through it's paces off-road with no mods, except rear drum to disc brake conversion, and adjusting the suspension for maximum ground clearence. Please come and join us if you can, love to have at least one old skooler there. :cool: Where abouts are you'uns in NC??? P.S.
