Im not sure we will be splitting up. Green is short, plus I hear its all different, and would like to check it out. What do you guys think easy is. Besides the group is..

1 defender 90
1 fj55
1 3rd gen 4runner
Aznsky
2 2nd gen runners
2 fzj80's
1 tj
maybe a couple more jeeps.
1 f150!
Im sure Im forgeting someone

the fj55, 1 fzj80, and the tj will wheel all day sat as well, so they may not mind the green or other easy trails. As for me Iam doing my shake down run so green might not be a bad idea, besides there are difficult little off shoots on some of the easy trails. the stockers are the defender, the 3rd gen runner, the f150. we can decide what people want when we are there I dont mind doing the easy trails, not all day though.

You'll be fine, trust me. There are bypasses on many of the more difficult obstacles and if you do get stuck, you'll have plenty of help.

Don't be surprised if you get a few scratches or even a dent or two though.

Ill be in a better position to coment on that after the easy trails

Be there at 9am, we will meet in the parking lot, Im not sure if its going to be the upper or lower parking lot, bc I think gumby and woody will get thee first since they will be staying there over night so look for an fj55, or my 4runner, You cant miss the 55 I guarentee it will be the only one there!!

Yes you may want to make peace with the posibility of some damage, but I will say that I get more damage in one hour of the cliffs than ive ever gotten at the badlands!

Ok gumby, and woody just finished riding the badlands, and his taurus fan pooped out (fords) he needs a replacement electric fan, so if any one has something that will work let me know.

i80 to 41, pay attention to the signs bc before you get to attica, 41 splits, and you have to stay to the right to stay on 41 (I think) just watch for it.
