mcbrat Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 when you reserve the sites, the have a drop down box for selecting tent, camper, other if it's like the other campgrounds, they give you a tag to put in your car, and they "patrol" to make sure all the people are "legit" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent, you reserved so far away trails.... kind of a strong word for gravel/B roads remember, there's not any public offroad trails for full size vehicles in Iowa. they are all private land....

The Dude Abides Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 sure there is, your local farm field, creek bed, anything south of county line works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbrat Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 sure there is, your local farm field, creek bed, anything south of county line works. Not during this campout The Iowa 4WD Association is trying to work with the DNR and state officials to try to find a place to create an ORV park for full size vehicles, and going in the illegal places you posted, does nothing but promote the bad image offroaders already have in some areas....

7point62fmj Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I SHOULD be able to make one or two of thos days I will not really know till two weeks out. I might be inclined to have to split a sight (and cost) with some one since It will be a last minute thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheinen74 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 is anyone planning on bringing parts to trade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7point62fmj Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 is anyone planning on bringing parts to trade? Good question! I have a bumper for you.. but you never got back to me. Mic what are you going to be driving? Also this would be a good time to pick up that motor. I also have a factory air box if any one needs it and some fun top glass and stock alt.

bheinen74 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 okay bring the bumper. I can switch that out during the slow part of the day, and then my dog can chew up the old one as that is what the dog does. I should have a weber by this event-maybe I will already have it installed, maybe this would be a learning experience for tuning it in.
