Next year is already rolling. We plan on food, music, an actual camp ground, a more organized system of communicating, more trails for every level of wheeler, and no rain

The shop/main office building will be done soon and that will give us a "home base" for activities and questions. We will have an artinerary(sp), and more trail leaders. (Sorry/thanks again to Scott, Dragon, and Digger) I also would like to run more night runs and for different levels of wheeler. No one should miss out on that. That was the funnest run I did (It helped that I drove Woodys fj40 though, Thanks again.)

Some of you who know me know I was kinda bummed about winning the winch and I felt worse through out the day. So as of now I plan to donate it to next years raffle.

Heres some pics my wife took of we were off doing. These give you an idea of what the interior of the park looks like. Many of the trucks that ran #1 could run SOME of these trails once its dry out.

My pics are post #114 & #115, but there are others.
