Finished sawing the bejeezus out of my front inner fenders last night and added one more washer under the steering stops... that should keep the tire out of the fender and off the steering box at full lock turn now. Still have about 5-6" of uptravel at the wheel even with only the equivalent of 3" of lift in the front (8274 sagged the front springs really bad over the winter ) Wish there was more, but oh well. Huge flex is highly overrated IMHO.
Still bet I can out flex Nate, even with all those gimmicks he has   This should spark a good, friendly sh*t storm
Rounded up most of the camping gear last night, too.
Gotta hit the store on the way home to get some last minute supplies and a new garden hose Wouldn't ya know it... as I am rushing aorund trying to get everything done, I go to set up the soaker hose and auto timer for the garden and the hose springs a giant leak None of my other hoses will work, either, so that;s one more thing to do tonight.
Still haven't got my safety/lifting hook installed on the winch yet. Discovered that it requires a clevis pin that's longer than normal last night. Crap. Gotta see if the hardware store has a longer one, or, if not, a 7/16" Grade 8 bolt of the right length so that the non-threaded part is in the right place and the threads are there for the nut on the other side.
What else am I forgetting to do? I know there's gonna be a big one

Are most people planning on camping Friday night? Then heading to the class as early as possible on Saturday?
I'm itching to go, the snow is gone and the ice finally melted off the lake. I'm ready to put the boat in get a ski.

LOL, it's a far cry from a palace. I was thinking of doing something close by on Friday or Monday. Thinking about that Shamokin place for those that get there early. Maybe even a night run there if we have a guide that is familar with it.
BTW, I got my Alcan springs on and I'm now ready to go after I shim it up.
Here's a poseur pic testing the flex.

However, I do have a 715 trip to KY in June at some point too... I think it's the 12th or some junk like that.. I wanna go to it this time, as I missed the last one for JAOCMJ.
So, I'd kinda like later in the month too. (plus more time to get things together, and less likelyhood of monsoons.)

About a year ago I heard about the www.freestateproject.org it aims to free a state. A state where the maximum role of government will be to protect against force and fraud. They are hosting their first big get together. There are things and activities planned for Monday thru Sunday. Tours of NH, food, speakers(lots of speakers)
I think you should look into the project, moving across the border would be worth it just for tax reasons. NH is one of the freest states with arguably the smallest government.
I am planning on moving once I finish college and save up enough money. I can not wait to live my life without some beurocrat telling me what is best for me.
Event details can be found here http://forum.freestateproject.org/index.php?board=3;action=display;threadid=5040
On my way to PA I will be driving past your house, maybe we could caravan?

If we get tee shirts that will be cool but how about a hood sweet shirt or even rain poncho. We could use the profit from the sales to buy extra fire extinguishers for Rob’s jeep fires. And also we have to make Nathan’s shirt pink. Anyway it was a very wet blast last year and I cant wait to do it again. I might rent a jeep for the weekend this time. I would have to get the special extra insurance though.

Well, I went to change my front rotors and pads yesterday. Got 'em changed out and went for a test drive. The left side was pulling hard and I can smell brakes burning. Guess I screwed up the caliper when I pushed in the brake cylinder. Had to change those out. Tonight I cut off the extra ubolt length from when I did the spring swap. Jeep is ready to go.
And tonight, I tore down my trailer axles and built them back up. Trailer is ready to go.
Tuesday I get my RV back from the shop. When I get it back, I'm going to install my new Cobra 29 Classic that I had the guy tune to 6 watts. Fire up the refrigerator and load it up.
I have my laptop/GPS set up with the route I want to go and all my MP3s loaded up to have some good tunes to go down the road with.
All and all, I'm almost ready to go once the shop gets done with the RV. I have one more day work. Can't wait.

Hmmm OK. WOW I cannot believe the run is finally almost here.
OK here's another question. WHat speakers does anyone recommend because mine are in the doors and i want to take the doors off, AND only the left one works anymore and it is all staticky. I just want to go out and buy some speakers somewhere and throw them in there. ANy recommendations? Just because I have to drive really far to get anywhere and it is rough without tunes...

no poll that I know of yet...
Still awaiting decision.
And, FWIW, I think that likely candidates should have a say in the front of the shirt...
And, if we are all in agreement, let the past attendees do the back...
In this way, we all have input in it... and the newbies can look forward to not only hearing new stories, but look forward to adding some that might make the list next year. Figure the shirts then become icebreakers, and a kind of legend to the JAOCMJ catastrophe.

See my other thread asking for HTML help.
I noticed last night that my main page didnt load properly in IE6. I did some tinkering, it still doesnt work for me in IE6, but it works for a lot of other people.

Ill be sure to mention it, you may end up having to park the RV away from the camp site we're at. Just so you know. that shouldnt be a problem though, right?
I'd want a little space, but I'd like to be drunken stumbling range from the fire pit. Rvs can be a tenters friend. I have the awning if it rains and I make a good wind break. The downside is when I fire up the generator to make my morning coffee.
From the pictures I saw from the 1st JAOCMJ, there is plenty of room.

I think so, they look like the D30 and D35. I assume that you still have your stock axles.

$60 is too much for a hi-lift. Should be about $49. If you go to Harbor Freight or Tractor Supply, you can get a farm jack for $30.

lol one day we all went wheelin in the jersey pines. and on the way home his spedometer wasing working....(atlas spedo clocking issue). and we all traveld the NJ speed limit. of 65...which is really 75. and he was scared to get a speeding ticket so he was crusing at like 35-45 mph.... when asked why he was going so slow. he said his spedo didnt work and didnt want to get a ticket... lol
you would think he might have gotten a clue when we were way ahead of him and cars were passing him left and right..

Yeah Steve, Paragon isn't very big in terms of acreage, but they have packed a ton of trails in there. They have done a pretty good job of keeping it so that you "feel" like you're in the middle of nowhere, too. Still don't like the pay-to-wheel thing, but sadly, that's what the NE is becoming.

life is all about makin S#!T happen. if ya want it done/have to get it done. do it your self. and if some is there to help then the job got easyier. there is nothing wrong with learing how to do something on a veichel buy screwing something up once or twice before you get it.
plus i bet there are more that just "one pete" in the world. you migh meet some one who owns a jeep shop where you can get a job and get all kind of free stuff. lol
i say you should still go if ya move down there. just dont wheel it dumb. like me i drive it 80 miles 5 days a week to get to and from work. but yet i still wheel it, just not hard core. just cause your not hard core dosent mean ya still can have fun.

Rob, you better be there or I'm going to drive to your office and cause a scene until you leave and come down here.
I had a very difficult time with SLeepy Hollow (Blue 2). I thought Good, Bad and Ugly was hard and it is green. I cannot see me on any black trails for sure. And Sleepy Hollow didn't have any bypasses that I could see except one big one that will separate the group for a fair amount of time. A lot of this IS going to depend on the confidence of the drivers and also the confidence of the drivers in their spotters. I do not want to do any damage to my Jeep. If we don't have enough for 2 groups maybe I will just ride along with someone on the blacks.
Ken, you want to do something challenging but keep in mind that that is a relative term. What you think is challenging would probably have me turning around and going back the way I came. We'll have to see who shows and what rigs we have. All I know for sure iswe are going to have a blast!!
Any suggestions on how to charge a camera battery when you are at a campground?

Pete, I dunno.. how about 2 sacks of potato's a sheep, 2 llama's and the wheels/tires, ohh and Jess wants a cow.
ok, maybe 1 llama after adding the cow.
Now.. the 715?! YEA! I want to see that. Ill even devote any spare time when i come down in the spring to get the gears done to helping the the 715 if itll help get it on the road. I really want to see that thing move!

when-------- june 26th & 27th
where------- paragon(sleeping arangments at red ridge)
activitys--- non stop fun, fires, laughs, and good times
hope i got it right,
my plan is to take a week off work around there and hopefuly follow pete and who ever is caravaning with him out there on the fraday and i guess come home back to jersey on that sunday night/monday morning.
i know its been said in the previous 16 pages of this thread, but how much will paragon cost for the sat and sunday? and if i remember the camp place is 10 bucks. if anyone of you will be so kind to refresh my memmory for me it would be great.

A lot of the trails have bypasses for the nasty stuff, where you can do just that, you hit the big nasty section, i take the bypass and watch you hit the obstacle.
And rob, think you could make it for one of the 2 days.

New ownership at Paragon with new rules.

------------------------
The rules and operation of the park will stay mainly the same with just a few minor changes. One of which is the guide policy. We can no longer openly allow anyone to navigate the park without any guide training. One person from every group will now be required to attend a free half hour to hour training course, maximum of once a year, in order to take their group out in the park without a purchased guide.
Full thread is located
Here
Ok...so who wants to be trail guide? We should have at least two people do the guide training. Thoughts?
ok, so we dont want an actual guide, im guessing.. I guess we need to figure out who's going with which group (if we even end up with 2 groups) and then take one from each group and forc.. err.. i mean.. ask them to take the guide course.
Better yet, lets ALL take the first guide course of the day on sat, and then it wont matter.

Yea pete, i guess you're out of the loop.. I'm wearing mine..
I feel as though we need more posts. but not just because bob says so, but because its the JAOCMJ way! Why, we cant hit the trails without first accumulating 20 (at least!) pages of mindless drivel, and stuff like this:  . Now, some of you may not agree that Jeeping and pretty girls go together, at least not on the internet, but just ask the janitor that cleans Trav's office, its welcome in this thread. Some think we talk to much, or that we dont get anything done, but really, think about it, if we werent getting anything done, how would we end up with such well planned out events? I mean, we have stickers, and hopefully shirts this time, and then of course, the huge turnout that we seem to get, i mean we ususally see people in the 10's! And then theere's all the others, that were there, but the must have missed us, because they said the'd be there, in fact, some of them swore they'd be there, and we never saw em, they must have come, ended up at the wrong camp site.. or somethin.
Besides, I havent convinced Al to run Linux yet, so we need to overload his forums until he finally agree's that a good solid Linux box would be best for this forum. I'm convinced that if we fill this thread with enough dancing women bull shi mindless drivel legitimate planning, we could show Al the light, and he'd switch..
Then again.. maybe its just because bob says so.

Pick a fawking weekend already
June 19-20 is less desirable for me... but I can make it, just have to redefine priorities.
May is less good for me... I have atleast one week-long trip planned the early part of the month as well as a high likelihood I will still be frantically finishing up my rig and shaking the bugs out towards the end of May

Hey now! Anyone else object to the stereotyping of JA'ers on that T-shirt?
Broken down, hood up, under the Jeep, etc...that's certainly NOT my perception or experience with other JA's.
Wouldn't a more accurate depiction have the driver wheeling hard with a big ol' smile on his/her face?

Nate, I don't think we are anywhere even remotely close to being able to honestly remove the "makeshift" from the name Unless, of course, we change it to JAOCCF... Jeepaholics Anonymous Other-Coasters Cluster F*ck
Paragon is a good choice IMO. Other places would be cool, too, but I feel we should be sure to plan a JA Paragon run this coming spring/summer.

Why when you mentioned junkyard did I all the sudden think:
"Oh man it's a goocher."
"Chopper, sic-balls"
"Kiss my ass, Choppy."
"I know who you are, you're the looney's kid."
Or it has something to do with that kid who got hit by the train.

Badlands is way too far for me
Nate- the dancing honeys are okay, but they really need to be gyrating
June is fine by me.
Dunno what Pete plans in showing up in... but if its the "normal" crowd showing up, we may have enough rigs for a more serious run. Jason and Scott are moderately built and might be able to join in the fun, too. I've got a winch now, so if Rob's around that would make atleast two winches in the group... might be able to get a group of the "bigger" rigs over some more serious trails without too much carnage.
Dunno how big/built my heep will be by then... I've got alot of things in the works, but who knows how much I can actually get done by then. Minimally, it'll be the same old 33s and Detroit rear I've been runing, but with a lockrite up front. Could be a wee bit bigger with stoopidly low gears if all works out for me in the next couple of months

4. GREAT coffee
5. All our parts are properly aged before putting them on the Jeep
6. If it ain't broke, it ain't rob's
7. The Smurfmobile
8. We start campfires better
9. But we roast marshmellows on the trail.
10. We're never between a rock and a tree (hardplace)

I propose a poll about which polls are going to actually going to become love.
Pete, post the list again, its a whole page back.
Are we all going to vote on which of the top 10's make the top 10 poll list? and then vote about who gets to vote? and then maybe vote some people off the islan.. err.. wrong voting.

I also talked with my boss friday about the last weekend of june. He said he could probably make arrangements so both me and my installer can have the days off.

but member that one run that i think it was scott set up. he just posted a we are meeting here, at this time, be there or be square. kinda thing.
i say that out of the 4 or 5 "event planner staff". they should pick one, and have people e mail them for a week or 2, with dates and where that person is comming from. and after all is said and done that one even staff person will post a offical date, meeting places for caravaning there and/or the final meeting place.
only reason i say that is there are already like 8 threads about setting a date. lets get it out of the way so we can make another 20 or so pages about what we have planned as far as mods go. and possibly getting togher before hand to help each other out or something.
and on a nother note. you might want to think about changing the name from JAOCMJ to JAOCJ being that with 5-7 months of planning time it really isint makeshift anymore

Both of you were right. It is swung out and Jenny have her womanly vision powers can see off the pic and see the tire wasn't there.

Cape was running 32's last time he ran Whompum. I guess we're going to have to decide on trail's once we're there, or if we're going to split up into a few groups.
You havent had much practice on the rocks have you Jay? We'll have to hit some trails around here once you get the 32's and the snow melts a bit. get you used to em.

Technology is great. I'm currently sitting in a Flying J Truckstop in Winchester,surfing the net.
One of my fan belts are squeling really bad. Trying to find someone to come out and tighten them/replace them. Before anybody says do it yourself, have tried to mess with 3 fan belts working thru a 3' hole and from on top and behind the engine with very little room.

so im looking at PAP's trail map.
Is the goal to try blue trails this time? That was my impression. I know some guys wanted to check out some black trails.
So are we going to try to plan a route that takes us on green/blue trails and takes us near low black trails?
We've got Whompum which takes us near Pick your poison and some other black trail, which doesnt seem to be marked right, unless its still part of Pick your poison.
We could also take Valley Road to sluice, and take another look at Death Valley for those that remember walking that at JAOCMJ1. Fun to look at, not to drive .
We've also got Woodpecker which leads to Ridge Road which will take us near another black trail that i cant identify, it has access to VooDoo which might be interesting to take a look at, but i dont know what the black portion is.
There's also The Good The Bad and the Ugly which is green, but i think jenny mentioned was still pretty rocky. It leads us near Rattler which ive seen, im not sure we could hit that. I watched a few rigs climb the first section of it while we were waiting for rob to de-fire his jeep last year, and it looked pretty tough.

I see this semi interesting looking thing called rubicon lake. Ive never seen this, is it worth wasting time on the green trails to get to it just to see it?
Whompum (Blue 3) is right there too, so if thats the sort of trail we want to try, its right there.
Whompum is a nice trail, its has more rocks than chicken run. I'd put it on our list of trials to run.

so if anyone has removed there tire from the tailgate and put a swing out on or have the tire in the tub. and happen to have the black rubber bumper thing. i would like to borrow it, for the trail ride.(a lil extra suport) and maybe possible throw a couple bucks to some one if they have one laying around.
damn... i cant wait!!

Well, I'm at the next Flying J. Just outside of Harrisburg. Getting dinner.
While we were waiting for the engine to cool to do the belts, I noticed I snapped a wheel stud on one of the trailer axles. Had to wait for parts. Spent four hours trying to get back on the road. 2 more hours to go. Woohoo.
There is a map to the campground? Can someone find it in the next hour before I lose internet connectivity. For some reason my GPS is working with this laptop.

So really, IF we have enough people show up... are we planning on 2 groups in the park? We're probably going to have a lot of us wanting to try some harder trails, and some of us just looking for a simple ride in the woods. Not to mention the obvious differences in stock/moderately built/extremely built rigs.
Or is it really possible to run trails that have a good mix of nasty obstacles with simple bypasses?

There will also be a new waiver, so please be patient as everyone will have to sign a new one.
Ya know.. last sept i finaly broke down and got a wavier card.... and the guy at the desk told me that it WASNT LIKELY TO CHANGE in the next few years, so the card should be good for a long time.
So here we are.. 6 months later, and im already looking at having to get a new one.. bloody hell!
So someone tell me.. whats the use of getting a wavier card if they change the damn wavier every few months?!

Heh,heh,heh....yeah we definitely go from one extreme to the other. If we're not franticly trying to start fires back at the campsite, we're trying to put fires out on the trail. <not pointing a finger at Rob>

By YJ Nate - 1/13/2004 1:30:07 AM

BTW, if we do PAP again, i can do the planning as far as camping and making sure the park is open again. I;m getting some contacts going here.
I mean, we all remember Uwharrie, when i didnt have anything to do with the planning. We couldnt even start a fire.
Also, after two years of trying to work it out, i dont think we'll be doing a centralized menu. It just doesnt work. I dont really want to get into it, but we'll just say that last year's menu was a horrible disaster. Not for lack of planning, it was a good plan, but like.. 75% of the people didnt show, and i was stuck with extra food. The first year worked better, but we had to dun for foor at wal-mart and that wasnt too pleasant. I thought i said i wasnt going to get into this?
Anyway, unless someone has a fool proof menu idea, we're not doing a centralized menu.. it just didnt work.

well, the paints gotta at least cover the primer doesnt it! I only have a few hours after work each night to work on it, and last night i broke the drill i was using the wire wheel with, so i had to waste some time fixing my tool.

Well, if all goes well, and Pete doesnt give me an offer i cant refuse on the detroit in the basement, ill HOPEFYLLY be running 4.10's and a rear detroit by the time June rolls around. Id love to be on some swampers by then too (35's maybe)....... but that depends on cashflow, which is minimal right now... So i'm "counting" on still being on the 33" AT's, and almost counting on the locker/gears. Other than that, no big things planned, other than some suspension tweaking.. and longer brake lines.. Which shouldnt do much to the overall performance, a little more flex, and a few less problems.

That MG sucked Completely defied the whole Monster Garage theme... making something unexpected from a vehicle and keeping it looking stock.
EBs are rountinely made into rockcrawlers. Nothing unexpected there.
A buggied-EB doesn't look stock. It looks like what it is.
Jesse had a bad attitude about the whole project, from the first day when they were brainstorming.
BFD... $30-some thousand dollars of "freebies" and they get a cool buggy. BFD.
/rant
And, speaking of the Bronco gathering at PAP last summer... there was a sweetly restored, bone-stock EB for sale there that, had I been left to my insanity, would have bought. Seriously. Good thing Marianne was along to slap me back to my senses

YA guys, good job.
So, looks like a poll should be made with my 20some suggestions, and the few extras too?
Way I see it, put em all in a poll... and let people vote for em... the ones that ome out in the top ten, are the top ten, and they go on the back of the shirt.
Other thought I had was to limit the poll to people who've been on the past JAOCMJ's. That way it's really damn funny to us. Do we really care if others get it?
Then, once they are tallied... set a time period... the results get emailed to Scott. And he gets them put on the shirt. This way, only Scott knows what they are. I for one, would rather go there not knowing what the top 10 are...
And, furthermore, whatever escapades we have on this one can be added onto that list for the next one. The new people who make this trip, can be added to the list of people who can vote on the shirt.
One thing I was wondering, is feasibility of getting a watermark of the Mall rated emblem under the top ten list. Either that, or mini graphics for a few of em... ie rob's burning clutch line, or my coffee mug. Maybe have 3 or 4 with graphics. Dunno what that would to cost of the shirt. I've also seen longevity of such shirts drop way down due to either the fine detail of the graphics, or the poor color used in em.
Then, of course for the front, the JAOCMJ sticker Graphic, perhaps with the JA sticker graphic under it. (if it doesn't make the JAOCMJ sticker itself). Another place to put that would be on the back as in a heading...
" Top ten reasons the JEEPAHOLICS ANONYMOUS
Other Coasters Makeshift Jamboree is better than a Jeep Jamboree"
And then list them.
However, I would tend to say change the word "JEEP (in the "JAmboree" part) to "Other" That would help us to avoid legal issues with Dumbass Cantmakejeepsfershit, as we all know how sue happy they really are.

We have some great trails around the Martinsburg, NY Jamboree site. www.brantingham.com Plus lots of free camping and available extra curricular activities. Most of the Snowmobile trails are Truck/quad trails in the summer.

Doesn't say anything about prohibiting alchohol.
Yea, i saw that, wasnt sure if it meant no drinking period or just no drinking and driving.

Doesn't matter to me either way, just thought it would be easier for us to get on the trail in the morning, seeing as though we would actually be on it.
From what I read on there site, it would be a $10.00 for a yearly membership, then $25.00 for each day of wheeling. ($5.00 for passengers) Included in the admission fee is camping, but you have to contact them with the amount of people and for how long.
Trail guides are $135.00, but I'll most likely be going there before JAOCMJ4 to check it out. Rob gets around, maybe he's been there.
Membership could be an issue, we'd have to get EVERYONE to register. I did see this on the site by the way after i asked. I mean, look at how many people _really_ committed to JAOCMJ3!
The fee's are almost identical to PAP after the registration fee, and the day's wheelin.. Cheaper if we stay for the second day. and no camping fee's....... i kinda like the idea.
What does everyone else think?

It doesnt seem to be much further, i have yet to find an actual address or something though.

Ken... assuming I get my junk together this weekend, I'd be up for running harder trails. Maybe even try a black trail. BUT, I have to drive my junk 350 miles back home when I'm done, so I'm not gonna be out looking for carnage like you trailer queens
Also, I'm gonna be running on untried and untested stuff, assembled frantically days before hand, so I would prefer to run one easier blue (that's the moderate trail color, right?) to start off so I can find any gotchas lurking around the rig in a relatively easy to deal with situation.
I'll be on 36s and locked in the rear (just ain't gonna be enough time to get the front lockrite installed if I am to get all the neeeded-to-drive-it things done) with a big winch on the front. I'll try most anything... and I have very little ego when it comes to wheelin', so I'll suck it up real quick and pull cable rather than bust my sh*t up

Dunno man, dunno… I was thinking more along the lines of assigning points to each of them…
Like if it was voted for 1st, it’d get 10
2nd, 9
3rd, 8
4th, 7
etc etc….
Then at the end, you add up the points each one gets, and divide by the number of votes. The saying with the highest number gets the first place, etc etc.
In this manner, the ones we vote highest will show up on the list, and the ones that are voted the lowest or not at all, won’t.

1. Rollbacks at 3 am
2. 100+ mph speeds getting to the campsite
3. We do rafting trips better. WE don't even have to leave our tents
4. GREAT coffee
5. All our parts are properly aged before putting them on the Jeep
6. If it ain't broke, it ain't rob's
7. The Smurfmobile
8. We start campfires better
9. But we roast marshmellows on the trail.
10. We're never between a rock and a tree (hardplace)
11. We plan less in 5 months of scheming than a politician can plan in a year
12. No where else will a sawall and a full gas tank make for such a great time
13. Half of us are invisible. What do you mean you don't see the other 25 people that said they were coming?
14. TARP CITY!!!!!
15. The 2 hour fire wood voyage.
16. Beware the rednecks down the road.
17. Jeep on fire? Broken Bronco? Wanna swap carbs at 5 am? Send in Pete.
18. Next year I will have adjusted this to that nth degree, and swapped out that seeming meaningless part (to you mere mortals) with that one. All for a amount of trail prowess that you won't notice. Or, maybe not, you know how those things go.
19. Sing with me now... PINK, it's my favorite color...
20. Yeah, we've got a lot of CJ guys with us. No CJ's just their owners.
21. Designated Cell phone area (can you say the top of the slide)?
22. We don't need no stinkin clutch anyway.
23. Booty Fab Snorkles!!!!
24. Tow truck!!! Call a Tow truck!!!.... Ok, we'll settle for Trav
25. Gerry Can + Tree + Steep hill no one can get up = several Jeepers running for cover.
26. Let's buy one year membership cards that expire in 6 months.
27. Bald tires and the Rock swamp.
28. Hmm... let's see.. .the CV in the dshaft goes bad... I know, let's buy an Atlas!
29 Yep, that's a really small, on seater, two stroke, with a flat tire, and a camera man Jeep.
30. Jeeping for free. Nuff said

Yes, there's two days left when I get back, but it would be a close call if they could get it from the other stealership and the sale complete. I might have trouble getting a good loan deal in that short of time, too and would decide whether to just pay cash for it to save the extra $1k by closing on/before June 30. I think I could justify that financially versus using someone else's $$ for cheap interest, but it's the whole point.
And, yeah, that would be a NV5600.
I may end up going with a 6.0L and the HD 4-spd auto, though. Instead of only two trucks in the whole northeast to choose from (with manual trannys, and only one has a Duramax), I could choose from literally hundreds of trucks to get all the other features I want and dicker for a good deal.

We can always have two groups Also, I was under the impression that some of the blue 2-3 trails (tougher medium, whatever...) have go arounds for all the tough stuff. Seemed like a mild lift/tires could get a guy thru something like Chicken Run if they took the go-arounds. Somebody that knows the PAP trails can chime in any time here
[arsehole mode]Fawk it, I'll just drag the stockers over a black trail with my winch[/arsehole mode]

Hmmm good idea DrownedTJ. I think maybe a thread should be started called something like, "GIVE US YOUR DATE FOR JAOCMJ4 BY 4/1/04" or whatever date, giving people enough time to chime in. Then the people who always go should just set a date using the info they got from that thread and then THE DATE IS SET and we can plan from there. Just a suggestion!

Whompum (Blue 3) is right there too, so if thats the sort of trail we want to try, its right there.
Whompum is a nice trail, its has more rocks than chicken run. I'd put it on our list of trials to run.
Any pics?

Wow, you all are a bunch of slackers... I go away for a bit, and only 2 more pages?
And, I like the PAP for spring, and the Rausch Creek for fall, if there's enough interest. However, Rausch creek is smaller than PAP, and has less of a variety of trails.
Also, I think that Rausch might end up being more of a Shamokin type of gathering... and then, if it's worth it, then have all the far far away people come down next time.
Oh, and I'm good with the last weekend of June too, BTW.

Nah, I don't get any discounts or anything cause they make them as ordered, unless I get a count of who wants what and order them all myself, but I really don't want to get into that.
The way it would work is that I'd setup a secure online store that people could order there t-shirts/hoodie or hat via Credit Card online.

Are there any vehicle restrictions on this. I don't know where mine will be as far as modifications by then, but I'll definitely try to make it.
Sounds like fun.

Maybe, just maybe, I'll be home and not floating around to make this one. Right now our schedule has us home. As long as we don't get extended in the Persian Gulf or somewhere in between.
Last one was at Paragon again. Where will this one be? Uwharrie? Tellico? What else is on the east coast?

OK, on trails… well, I guess you all saw my opinion there. Again, it would tend to depend on who all shows up.
And that brings me to my next point. My plethora of suggested polls. Numbered to help alleviate confusion, with bullets as notes and or possible options. (Keep in mind Scott is already constructing one of these… I think the top ten one)
1) The Top Ten reasons Why JAOCMJ is better than a Jeep Jamboree Poll.
• I’ve proposed 30 possibilities here. And these are what Scott is working with, I think. If others have possibilities, contact Scott bout it, I’d say. Or post it here, and let the wolves have their way with you.
• I think that this poll should be multiple guess… ie, pick the 10 you like most from greatest to least…. And let the computer decide what gets the top spot. Not sure if Scott’s applying values to votes based on where people pick them, but that’d be the way I’d do it.
2) A poll, or survey if you will to figure out at what level of build possible participants are and or will be, and what kind of experience they have.
• This poll was to be designed by yours truly, coded by Scott and hosted by Nate. That is, if we all think it’s a good idea.
• My question on this was if my idea of it being a multiple choice with a write in section at the bottom was a good idea.
Trav- you’ve got a PM.
Nate, you are a dummy dodo head.

Got it, we'll have to meet up in chat sometime to discuss it further. I need to do something, I can't even pull out into traffic without pulling the front tire.
haha.. mine does the same thing. and that only with 3 inch coils and 4 RE superflex(short arms, *to poor for the long arm kit) in the rear....scares the crap out of the lil woman when i do it. lol.
my record according to the guys at work is about a foot and a half or so. but one said two feet. gonna have to get someone to sand closer to the jeep and run out and measure it when it happens again.
maybe one day i will feel like puttin my rear sway bar back in.

friday off for me, i wont need monday off.. i live close. I may not even take off friday. If my wife comes along she wont be able to take off friday im sure, she's just starting a new job, wont even be out of her probation yet.
So other than sitting in my dining room staring out at the jeep in my driveway...... i wont have much to do on friday.
then again, that'd be a good time to get 1000 things done that i probably wont get done between now and june.....

Just buy one and take it to the meet...Nate and Ken are lining up to wrench on your rig!
Regarding diff gaurds, definitely not a mandatory thing. Don't rush in and buy some that may not be what you really want just for this run. Nothing against the ones in Q-Tec (I didn't even look at the link), but did you compare them to the 4xDoc ones?
YJ sway bar disco = 3/4" wrench and high lift handle. Remove the nuts that attach the links down at the spring plate. Flex them off the studs using the jack handle. Bungee cord swaybar and links to frame. Voila!
But I agree with Al...have fun! Would also like to be there, driving or JAFO.
TJ
The ones in Quadratec are 4xdoc. They re-sell them.
Check out the pic i posted above of my spare tireless YJ. You can see my 44's guard, as its orange. I got it from Quadratec its a 4xdoc guard.

Alot of people I work with, besides my in-laws, live in NH. I hear about the smaller gov thing in NH first hand... don't let 'em fool you, it's pretty much the same bureaucracy as any where else, just disguised to some degree.
Lift laws are fast on their way to the books in NH, too. Looks like a personal income tax is on the way, too, to try to rememdy the huge discrepency in taxation. About the only real "small gov" thing about NH is they are pretty lax in their gun laws

I can start designs on stickers tonight though.
So if we were to go with stickers... same sort of design as the last JAOCMJ Vinal was? It was basically "JAOCMJ#" in a larger font, with "Uwharrie National Forest" underneath. This of corse would have Paragon Adventure park instead.

I know some people were interested int he possibility of some black trails. Im not 100% sure i am though. Maybe black trails with not so black bypasses? If there is such a thing. Maybe easier trails on sat, and harder trails on sunday, after people have gotten a feeel for the park.
We're going to have at least 2 guys there that arent all that experienced, one of them hasnt even been to the park before. The other JUST got his lift, and 32's on, and im not sure he wants to hit anything that hard yet.

We could do PAP for this run and plan a fall Rausch Creek run. It is kinda similar to PAP-they have monthly guided runs like PAP I guess. A lot of the local clubs go there. If I can get the other Jeep Girl at my office to go, she has been to Rausch Creek a lot of times. She could sort of lead us. Or, a few of us that live right here could go check it out sometime between now and then...

I made the reservation today. He is putting us where he put you last year, behind the Barn? I made the reservation under Jeepaholics and it is for 15-18 tents + 1 RV. The cost is $10/per person/per day. ($20 per person for those that can't do math ). He is letting me put the RV over there. So, no long walks for me for beer.
I will already be there and I'll move over to the group camp early Friday morning and throw up a sign.
He also wanted me to point out to the group, I am the only that has to call. No other reservations have to be made. You just have to show up and give me your money when you get to the campground.
Now I just have to mail them a $50 check to secure it.

everyone has to start somewhere. before i want to PAP for the first time the most experience i had was a little mud on the back roads around here. And im still by no means hardcore, or experienced.
we talked yjjays brother into coming along. And he doesnt have much of any experience.
we took him out once, a few weeks ago, on a little trail that had some rocks.
He loved it, im sure she will too!

Ill be sure to mention it, you may end up having to park the RV away from the camp site we're at. Just so you know. that shouldnt be a problem though, right?
I'd want a little space, but I'd like to be drunken stumbling range from the fire pit. Rvs can be a tenters friend. I have the awning if it rains and I make a good wind break. The downside is when I fire up the generator to make my morning coffee.
From the pictures I saw from the 1st JAOCMJ, there is plenty of room.
Depends on what site they put us in. The one we had last time.. forget it. The first year, yea, you could have put one there, but i think they dont allow it anyway.

New ownership at Paragon with new rules.
Quoted from the Pap Site
------------------------
The rules and operation of the park will stay mainly the same with just a few minor changes. One of which is the guide policy. We can no longer openly allow anyone to navigate the park without any guide training. One person from every group will now be required to attend a free half hour to hour training course, maximum of once a year, in order to take their group out in the park without a purchased guide.
Full thread is located
Here
Ok...so who wants to be trail guide? We should have at least two people do the guide training. Thoughts?

JAOCMJ = Jeepaholics Anonymous Other-Coaster's Makeshift Jamboree = highly talked/BSed about gathering of some JAers in the Norteast to wheel and drink together for a weekend. Runs have been at Paragon (eastern PA) and Uwharrie NF. Better description would be a giant cluster-f*ck that is usually fun, humorous, and entertaining. We might even wheel, too

Nice pics..
So you made it through Whompum with your jeep, in the same configuration that it was at JAOCMJ3? We were about even then, other than your locker.. So i guess i can feel pretty confident about that level of trail eh?
BTW, i like the tribute at the top of your page.... caught me off guard, i totally lost my train of thought while talking to a customer..
Thanks for putting it there.

Cool... thanks Ken. The old method of each of us settling up seemed to be a PITA for the guy, at least last year. He had a hard time keeping track of who/where had paid and voiced some of that frustration to me when I happened to bump into him and we chatted for a few minutes last year.

My camera is a little old so all my pics are fuzzy. The "season" is just starting so there were no bunny's that I saw when she wasn't with me, so no good pics. Plus I was too busy with the Rum drinks.
But I was happy to come home because I finally got my wheels and tires. Now if the white stuff would just go away so I can use them.

I just want to wheel. I would like to do something a little challenging. That's why we build our rigs. But, I'll be happy doing what the majority of the group can do. If we find a trail the stockers can get out and watch us "built" guys do, that would be great.

I agree, we need to set a firm date.....soon. I was just looking at the vacation calendar and one of my installers is taking the 24th-30th off. I had originally requested the 11th-14th off. With the expectation of being able to take "whatever" weekend this trip is. So now I'm kinda screwed. If I only lived a hour or so away it wouldn't be a big deal.

The 4Runner Jamboree is there too. It's gonna be busy. But there are like 90 trails or something and I heard that it usually isn't a problem.
I wish I had a diff cover (or whatever it is called). Then I would feel a lot better in the rocks. I need to get one.

If they offer the course on the days of the monthly rides (first weekend of each month), we could have a group get together at either the April one or the May one and whoever wants to take the course do it then and then we go wheeling...I am going to the April one for sure already.

I'm up for a blue trail run first thing... I need to shake my junk down as I would sure would hate to find problems in the middle of a black trail
The stuff Scott, Jason, Pete, Missy, and I did last year on Sunday might be a good match for most of the rigs... IIRC, there were go-arounds on Chicken Run such that with a good spotter and a decent driver could take a stocker thru. We have a few winches in the group, too. Nobody wants to see anybody break their rig, but at the same time, even a stocker can ge thru alot of stuff if the driver has the "confidence".

I definately want to do PAP again.. and i know i said this last year, but i'm staying both days this year!
well.. maybe not if we get another monsoon.. in that case, im sleepin in the jeep, and eating at mcdonalds..

I was thinking more along the lines of a Top Ten Reasons Why JAOCMJ is better than a Jeep Jamboree.
1. Rollbacks at 3 am
2. 100+ mph speeds getting to the campsite
3. We do rafting trips better. WE don't even have to leave our tents
4. GREAT coffee
5. All our parts are properly aged before putting them on the Jeep
6. If it ain't broke, it ain't rob's
7. The Smurfmobile
8. We start campfires better
9. But we roast marshmellows on the trail.
10. We're never between a rock and a tree (hardplace)
11. We plan less in 5 months of scheming than a politician can plan in a year
12. No where else will a sawall and a full gas tank make for such a great time
13. Half of us are invisible. What do you mean you don't see the other 25 people that said they were coming?
14. TARP CITY!!!!!
15. The 2 hour fire wood voyage.
16. Beware the rednecks down the road.
17. Jeep on fire? Broken Bronco? Wanna swap carbs at 5 am? Send in Pete.
18. Next year I will have adjusted this to that nth degree, and swapped out that seeming meaningless part (to you mere mortals) with that one. All for a amount of trail prowess that you won't notice. Or, maybe not, you know how those things go.
19. Sing with me now... PINK, it's my favorite color...
20. Yeah, we've got a lot of CJ guys with us. No CJ's just their owners.
21. Designated Cell phone area (can you say the top of the slide)?
22. We don't need no stinkin clutch anyway.
23. Booty Fab Snorkles!!!!
24. Tow truck!!! Call a Tow truck!!!.... Ok, we'll settle for Trav
25. Gerry Can + Tree + Steep hill no one can get up = several Jeepers running for cover.
26. Let's buy one year membership cards that expire in 6 months.
27. Bald tires and the Rock swamp.
28. Hmm... let's see.. .the CV in the dshaft goes bad... I know, let's buy an Atlas!
29 Yep, that's a really small, on seater, two stroke, with a flat tire, and a camera man Jeep.
30. Jeeping for free. Nuff said
Nate, you lazy SOB, here they are.

Hey Over2land,
I been in St Thomas for the last 5 days so this is the first I've checked in. You asked what kind of rubber is on Lucille (picture on page 7 of the thread). She has a 4' Trailmaster and 33x10.5x15 Thornbirds. I've see some people on here say they think the Thornbirds suck. But for the amount of heavy mud I've seen her glide over they seem to be great. (and no she wasn't stuck, just a photo op in a mudhole that isn't stagnent only due to traffic. We were just trying to inhibit the mosquito breeding ground.) And yes her spare doesn't match, it's a BFG A/T that she has 5 of for the winter.
The jeep chick is still on the island but she's fired up and ready to meet you all at PAP. Just let us know what weekend.

Jenny,
Whatever speakers you get make sure they are not paper cones. For the obvious reason that they are bound to get wet. You can always get a pair of small indoor/outdoor speakers (like the type you might see on a deck at a bar) and mount them like a fire extinguisher to your cage. They usually sound better, are cheaper and more durable than a soundbar or floor replacement. Plus you can point them down so the cones are less likely to get ruined. I used to have a set of Bose 101's in my old jeep, they were a little big but sound great. But they are now perminently mounted to the deck.

Yeah, whatever He's just talking to himself again
The survey for the top 10 as I last saw it on Scott's site is a good start IMHO. Maybe we host a 1-2 day "write-in" suggestion session here in this thread (or another if the mod-gods would allow it), then run the survey-vote.
Also, gathering a list of the level of the rigs and trail challenge desires of participants is a good idea. But, seeing as how a a whole lot of people always express interest and then it's essentially the same bunch of people who show up... maybe that's irrelevant and can be addressed by the "usual" gang deciding by email/PM/thread what trails to run.

Not snubbing, just not enough contiguous time at work to read all these pages of drivel
Survey for the top 10 = yes!
Write in for top 10 = yes
Trails = blue (intermediate, right? like chikin run, etc.?) minimum for me to drive 7 hours for. I can drive dirt roads 200 yds down the street from me Low-end black trails would be way cool, too. All the picts I've seen of M trail and Rattler (seen parts of that trail in person) have me intrigued... Gonna be on 33s locked f/r minimum if not on 36s locked f/r by then and a winch. I wanna play From what I've heard that should give me a good chance of making those trails under my own power and mostly unbroken

Nate, we sell JA stickers and we promote the board by being out there...
I am sure we could work something out with Al so that we might form a poll on here. Maybe we could rob the code from another board? I dunno if it's another plug in that Al'd need to get or not, but still...
Then we could limit it to JA members who went before. I mean, you are already a moderator... and if al gave you a section of bandwidth to play with just for the text of the poll, I think it should be doable.
I've seen other snitz forums where it's possible for users to setup polls... so figure we could here. And since there is a limit to who can use it, it's not like it'll take up a whole ton of bandwidth, or drive space. I mean, what... maybe 30 of us tops that were accumulated at the 3 of em?
I am willing to help with writing the code, if need be... I have a few friends who'd help guide me through it. While I might not be all that computer saavy, I can write code with a fair degree of adroitness.

Doesn't matter to me either way, just thought it would be easier for us to get on the trail in the morning, seeing as though we would actually be on it.
From what I read on there site, it would be a $10.00 for a yearly membership, then $25.00 for each day of wheeling. ($5.00 for passengers) Included in the admission fee is camping, but you have to contact them with the amount of people and for how long.
Trail guides are $135.00, but I'll most likely be going there before JAOCMJ4 to check it out. Rob gets around, maybe he's been there.

There's no Fee, technically, The only things you have to pay for are 1. your stay at red ridge (if you camp with us, at a group site, its $10 per person, per night) and the fee that paragon charges to wheel for the day. $35 a day.
Other than that, we're not doing a centralized menu, so plan on your own food, and if it turns out like last year, keep some money set aside for a Motel.

Some reason I just jumped to the conclusion that you had another set of wheels to put them on. BTW, whatcha gonna do come winter time? Swap the ATs back on or taunt Darwin with the swampahs?

Printed the sucker out a few minutes ago, too.
I really don't want to be at work right now. Chebby dealership just called and said they located a new '04 2500HD with a 6-spd manual... but had to tellthe guy to wait since I can't get down there to discuss it and work out a deal until Monday night at the earliest Unless I skip the run or come down wicked late tomorrow night That pretty much screws me out of $1000 of the incentive I get thru work since I cannot close the deal before the end of June if I want to continue with the travel plans I had in mind. Grrr.

I had to take the spare off to move the trailer around. The crank of the trailer rubs in to the spare during tight turns. I was just on my way out to put it back on.
If you hang around Sunday, we can try to put 'em on. After you go to a carwash and spray out your wheel wells real good.

Red ridge campground is in the "town" of Zion Grove. Stop panicing guys. Only thing I'm worried about is that I forgot to mail in the $50 deposit. Whoops.
I mentioned a few pages back that I had a hook up for stickers, I just needed a design. I swear if it isn't on the current page, you don't remember it.
I don't want to sound like a puss, but I would like to look at a Paragon rated black trail before saying I want to do one. I do want to do some good rock crawling, but I don't want to get over the experience level of the group.

Doesnt matter, by the time the leak gets fixed, its gonna have to be sanded down to bare metal to get all the oil off.

Just finished loading up everything but the cooler and our clothes bags.
I'll pack the cooler in the morning and toss our bags in. Then, I just have to wait for my wife to get home from dropping doggy off at her father's and do whatever piddling around she has to do, then we can finally head out. I want to leave by 9:00am. She knows that means I will finally loose my cool and wig out at about 11:00am... hence, we'll leave about 10:30am

For design, I would say keep it close to the stickers, if at all possible. And, with that in mind, got a price guestimate?

i dont have a map, but in the original JAOCMJ thread (somehwere around page 12) there's directions i got from the camp ground.

5 days, 5 more pages, no problem. The weather report alone will get us 3 pages. I want to pick up a CB this week any suggestions? Liz has a handheld that plugs into the cig lighter, small and stowable might be the way to go? Cost Effective (ie works and is cheap) would be nice too.

I just got my CB about 2 weeks ago. I got the $30 CB at Walmart--It's a Maxon. Then I got a firestick antenna for $16 at a truckstop. This is the same setup that a friend of mine has. It was cheap and it is working great. And if someone steals it I won't be out a whole lot of money. I highly recommend it. Truckers keep telling me it sounds great, so hey, that's good enough for me. It worked perfectly on the trails this past weekend too. Don't use the handheld if you can help it--i was using one and it is not very handy. It will work fine if it is all you have though.

We're going to have at least 2 guys there that arent all that experienced, one of them hasnt even been to the park before. The other JUST got his lift, and 32's on, and im not sure he wants to hit anything that hard yet.
Well, we still haven't managed to purchase, much less install a lift on missy's Jeep. So, it'll be the same Jeep as we had last year. As such, if there isn't any bypasses, I doubt we'd be up for blue trails. WIlling to lead a green group, if that's the way it ends up falling.

I made out 4 waivers (Friday thru Monday) already. The waiver shouldn't take long and wouldn't be holding us up. Plus we can be airing down and such while you (they) do their thing. I have to buy one of those orange flaggy things too. I'm sure you don't have to buy theirs. Any orange flag will do. Go to Kmart and get one of those kids bicycle flags and zip tie it up high.
We also need some people to take the trail guide class. Maybe that is something I (and whoever else is there) can do on Friday. Just to get that knocked out of the way.
I've been to paragon, but I can't remember how much it cost because we didn't even get out of the parking lot and didn't pay.

Bet they also teach you how to avoid being made to "squeal like a piggy" when you get lost and end up in the junkyard next door.
I can't complain though... that toothless man was very nice... he even complimented me on my purdy mouf

LOL... no not gonna use it for a show truck, but the body is in the upper say... 30% of 715's out there, and for me to replace the good parts I have, which are also the most liable to trail damage, which are also the most expensive... just isn't worth it to me. I'd rather pass on a trail with it, than know I'm destroying it to get it through. I've got nothing to prove, and neither does it really. It'll be my parts getter/tow vehicle... wheeling with it is just a bonus.

Hey Trav, I saw your post on whether or not to add the lock rite. I installed mine, did the same trail that I did the week before and broke my rear axle shaft. Just my .02, BUT I did get the rear tire in a "bad" spot. I have pics to prove that one. Being locked all the time is a PITA, AND bad on gas. BUT I did go and lock my 44's ft and rear. Good Luck!!

Um, Tom did I miss something here?
Just trying (obviously not very successful) to take an opportunity to poke a lil fun at the planning y'all put into these trips by pointing out that one of the hugest 4x4 events around is coming in about a month, will have a ton of JA'ers in attendance, and is already back to about 8 pgs deep in the gen disc.
Guess we don't overthink things too much out this way. I don't even know what I'm doing for lunch yet! Where am I?

I've got plans to have my tire carrier back on. Its sitting in my basement at the moment, dissassembed (well, as dissassembled as a tire carrier can get) and stripped of most of its paint, just bought the parts to put it back together with over lunch.
The bracket for inside the tub still needs a few welds done, and i dont have a welder, also needs a cut made, and primer/paint.
Cant get it welded until friday, better get fast drying paint!
TSL's are still sitting in my back yard. Jeeps' still not inspected.. (crossing fingers that it passes)
and i havent even packed.

also from PAP's site
One person from every group will now be required to attend a free half hour to hour training course, maximum of once a year
Should that say a "minimum" of once a year?
Thing that gets to me is. The actual guides get paid for thier service as a guide, we dont get a thing. We should get a discount for not costing the park one guide.
They also say that the guide classes are only on sat's and sun's, so we'll have to send whoevers getting the training on sat morning, or have them go beforehand?

SexyJeepGirl: I have not talked to Jim at all. I will be driving past his house on tuesday or wednesday. It may even be another day, I am not positive yet. Then driving past Paragon and the camp site to New Hampshire for a few days. Then comming back to meet you guys on fri-sat, and probably leaving for home when the group does. I could drop Jim off at Paragon or the campsite, anywhere else along the way, or he could also go to the freedom fest.

6. If it ain't broke, it ain't rob's
7. The Smurfmobile
8. We start campfires better
9. But we roast marshmellows on the trail.
10. We're never between a rock and a tree (hardplace)
11. We plan less in 5 months of scheming than a politician can plan in a year
12. No where else will a sawall and a full gas tank make for such a great time
13. Half of us are invisible. What do you mean you don't see the other 25 people that said they were coming?
14. TARP CITY!!!!!
15. The 2 hour fire wood voyage.
16. Beware the rednecks down the road.
17. Jeep on fire? Broken Bronco? Wanna swap carbs at 5 am? Send in Pete.
18. Next year I will have adjusted this to that nth degree, and swapped out that seeming meaningless part (to you mere mortals) with that one. All for a amount of trail prowess that you won't notice. Or, maybe not, you know how those things go.
19. Sing with me now... PINK, it's my favorite color...
20. Yeah, we've got a lot of CJ guys with us. No CJ's just their owners.
21. Designated Cell phone area (can you say the top of the slide)?
22. We don't need no stinkin clutch anyway.
23. Booty Fab Snorkles!!!!

4th, 7
etc etc….
Then at the end, you add up the points each one gets, and divide by the number of votes. The saying with the highest number gets the first place, etc etc.
In this manner, the ones we vote highest will show up on the list, and the ones that are voted the lowest or not at all, won’t.
Doesn't matter to me how its counted, as long as we capture the information, it can be compiled anyway we like. Hell...we could even do bar graphs and pie charts.

I think I can go. If I do go, Jim could car pool with me. I doubt I will have a jeep by then, but who knows. I will also bring my dirt bike.
Is Red Ridge Campground the same place we stayed at the first JAOCMJ?
EDIT: I may be heading from Minnesota to New Hampshire on the 23rd or so as part of the freedom fest. Hosted by www.freestateproject.org I am not positive I could give Jim(Spirit) a ride. I will make sure to find out today though what I am doing.

interesting suggestion.. looks like its still pretty close by..
TealJ... she used to work for PAP.
worth looking into i guess.. do you have to be a member to play? Looks like theres a membership thing on their page.
Heres the thing.
PAP we're all starting to get "used to" and most of us are wanting to try the harder trails. If we move to another park, we may be unsure of what trails to try.. Unless maybe they have guides?
|
|
By jollymon - 5/23/2004 10:20:23 AM

LOL! Good choice of what to do with your time
I dunno if this is your first closing, but it's not nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Just make sure your ducks are ina row and double check that everyone has done their part and it will be alot more stressfree. I spent maybe 4-5 hours calling, faxing, and kicking arse a few days before we closed on our new house this past fall... made all the difference in the world. Just showed up, signed the papers, and took the keys.

Also, I think that Rausch might end up being more of a Shamokin type of gathering... and then, if it's worth it, then have all the far far away people come down next time.

Gpn4Free's Anniversary is on the 21st, and for the past 2 years, we've planned it over his anniv. So i suggest we avoid the weekend preceeding the 21st. Unless he chimes in and tells us otherwise.
I dunno if we need a sep. thread for the date, in the past, we've just talked about it in the main thread.
So, we know the the last weekend is out for Jason, and the weekend of the 10th is no good for pete. Ans the weekend before the 21'st is possibly no good for Gpn (if he's even planning on going).
Pete, i just looked at my calendar.. There IS NO weekend surrounding the 10th.... do you mean the weekend right after that?

Hey Guys, Since the cat is out of the bag I can join in. The park was sold to Kyle Knosp, He was the GM, On JAOCMJI, Kyle the guide is now the GM. There have been a lot of good changes at the park, you just have to bear with them on the change over. They are trying to keep the park safe, so there are no disasters as there were in the past. All you have to do is contact Stephanie of you need sany information. You can find her on the forum on the Paragon site.

Shirts man... I don't wanna drag this out... let's get the info to Scott as soon as we can... That way, we are sure to get the shirts, and he's not really pushed for time.
What do you think of the mall rated idea for an emblem on the front?? Maybe encircle that with Jeepaholics anon... (in JA font, with jeep) for the top half, and JAOCMJ4 on the bottom???
Then, on the back, the list, as mentioned earlier.

Trav- Screw you man I'm going home <looks around> oh yeah...
WEll, on what I'll be in, I don't know either. It'll either be a CJ5 (either one nets ya a wench), a M715 (plans to get it on the road by then in swing now. OH, the yokes on the tcase, and the Deuce trans are 1410's. I have 1410's for the axles on order too), or a relatively stock 4 popper YJ with a 4 cyl and some other stuff. REally, it's up in the air now, and depends on weather.
Scott- Do you get better prices on higher quantities? Would it be a pre order thing? AND... I was kinda thinking the normal sticker design or something of the sort, with a 10 top reasons list on the back, ala the JA shirt and others of yore... I think that we've got enough to easily come up with 10 things... Maybe post a poll for attendees of past ones, and have them rate it 1-10, or whatever. It'll be a suprise what order they are in, but we'll all know what's there.
I like the top ten idea. How abou the top ten things not to forget for a offroad camping weekend. I sure we can think of some things we need but did'nt have in past years. I seem to remember running down a trail yelling "FIRE...FIRE". Well actualy I remember yelling "FIRE" twice in one day... I am sure there are other things that we forgot that i am forgetting now. But I am sure some people can refresh my memory.
Here is one to start.

The cow? There is another guy waiting for 5 black steel rims willing to trade...
And, the potatoes, waiting here. The ant farm? Not a prob.
When do you need to get your jeep inspected anyway?
Jeep doesnt get inspected until June. My Sahara flares will take care of the existing tires/wheels though.. The worry was going to anything larger/wider in the future.
You know pete.. you were so convincing when i bought the Detroit from you... now you're trying to talk me out of using it..
Nice.
Vote? What are we voting on?

A lot of the trails have bypasses for the nasty stuff, where you can do just that, you hit the big nasty section, i take the bypass and watch you hit the obstacle.
And rob, think you could make it for one of the 2 days.
hehheh....I'm willing to learn, I'll try some of the harder blues, so long as I dont burn out mentally , or break,then I'll be hanging out with Nate after the go-around. no trailer yet so I do have to get home, this is a shake out for all the crap I've replaced/added so far, Lookin forward to trying this little heep out on some real trails.

LOL... well, in theory, I've got the engine, trans, and tcase. I need dshafts, bellhousing (the hard part) and brakes (cobbled together from whatever at the time). The only issue with it is the 6 on 7.25 BP it's got. Limits brake options really damn quick.
Also, if I do bring it, it'll greatly limit the trails I can drive. It'll have 38's, but I just don't wanna damage the body. and, at 20 some inches wider than an SWB, that would be interesting.s
Also there is the whole 427 issue... I have many a reason to put a 427 in it... Tall deck big blocks are just soooo cool

T-shirts should take 10 business days. I'll have a seat, but I'm not sure if someone else needed it or not. I seem to remember way back in the bowels of this thread that someones brother needing a seat. Though I guess if I leave my rear seat in, I should have room, but I'd rather leave it out.

Ok, whats the deal, talking about dates already?? Everyone knows that doesnt come until March.
But since Jason went and ruined it. I was thinking the last weekend in June too.. Someone.... Carwash? mentioned that weekend.. but who knows even if he'll be there.
For a Poll, i can setup a Poll over on that flop of a message board i have on undrground.org. But theres no way to restrict it to previous JAOCMJ participants. also... we'll know the results.. and.. well.. im not so sure how well that'd work after all..

I was thinking more along the lines of a Top Ten Reasons Why JAOCMJ is better than a Jeep Jamboree.
1. Rollbacks at 3 am
2. 100+ mph speeds getting to the campsite
3. We do rafting trips better. WE don't even have to leave our tents
4. GREAT coffee
5. All our parts are properly aged before putting them on the Jeep
6. If it ain't broke, it ain't rob's
7. The Smurfmobile
8. We start campfires better
9. But we roast marshmellows on the trail.
10. We're never between a rock and a tree (hardplace)

Dustin, welcome back. hope you make this one. I know you wrecked the Chebby ya had... what're you in now?
Nate, I did a centralized menu. However, also appreciate you getting stuck with the food. Also, have odds on it being crappy weather this year too. (Ain't I positive?).
Trav, much as I like centralized menus, I think that you and I should just work something out. Pool our resources type of thing, ya know?
And, I think that the PAP in the early summer months works good. I also think that the alternate of somewhere else for fall is a cool idea. Odds are any of my heeps wouldn't make it, but cool idea nontheless.

i need some work done. what do you think i should do in order to survive out there.
#1.. i still need a full size 33inch spare
#2.. a rear bumper/ some type of rear tow point
#3.. fix my cracked header
since i have become the kind of person who can squeeze a quater untill the eagel takes a crap. what should be the order i should do those 3 things in before i go. keeping the $$ in as a foctor
i know this is a BS ? but i have to cotribute to the hopefuly 45 pages of bable by the time we actualy go there. lol

Sorry guys, but I am out of the sticker business My source for printing them dried up and won't do it any more. I may break down and buy my own printer, but don't hold yer breath.
Also, I took a $$$ beating on those stickers last year... didn't bother me until they all came up missing before hardly anyone got one
why dont we come to put one person in charge of stickers. and take orders when we are out there and who ever wants one will pay that person then and there along with a mailing address. and then the person can take how ever many orders he has and make then and then send them to the people who want them. so all you have to do is disign and post it here.
this is just so no one gets screwed buying 50 stickers and only givin like 10 on them out. anf being stuck with the rest of them and a high $$ bill.

The truck is not physically there... it would have to be swapped from another dealership... up in Maine somewhere. That takes a day or two to do. Call me what you will, but I am very hesitant to buy a $40k (sticker price) truck sight-unseen Plus, there's no "incentive" for them to work any harder to make it go fast, since I am VERY limited in my options for a manual tranny and I'll have to take it or leave it I'm also still debating whether to jsut say screw-it to the incentive money and order an '05 custom built. Heck, maybe even get a 3500
They are faxing the spec sheets and an official "bottom line" price to me this afternoon. We shall see... if they can make the price right and get me all the discount/incentive money, I might take a chance on it and deal tongiht.
If I only had a few more days, I might be flat-towing to PAP in style

The separate thread was just a suggestion because a few people have been emailing me asking me to just tell them when it's gonna be because of the way this thread is going.
My favorite weekend to have it is the last weekend or the 2nd weekend of June. Starting to look like it is going to be really hard to make this work out for everyone. We should come up with a date soon for sure so people can ask off. The longer we wait, the more people are going to lose certain weekends in June to coworkers.

Quadratec has tow hooks and will have 'em to your house in a couple of days. The holes are already on the frame and tapped out for ya'. You might have to make a little hole in the plastic cover to see the second one. It's a half beer project. And TJ's even have a spot on the rear frame for a tow hook. No need to buy a bumper. Atleast not before the trip.

pete, stop singing about huge polls. Someones kids might see this.
Anyway, all i was saying before (albeit, cryptic) is that IF we have a poll about whos gonna be there, and what theyll be drivin, we need to make sure everyone takes it, and that they follow through (e.g. SHOW UP!)
Maybe run it some time closer to the acutal date? Like.. JUNE?! A lot less people will say their going, and now show up, if its closer to the actual date, i think. Because there wont be as much "I dunno if i can get the time off" and people who are really serious about going, will already know if theyre going to make it or not.
Just my opinion.
Now go back to talking to yourself.

well here it is on tuesday evening....
i just got in from cuttin one inch out of my front flairs. so now i have a lil more room for the tires.
hey if anyone has one laying around. i need the lil black thing that go on the tail gate, to help the spare tire from not bouncin around. i had mine off for a while cause i didnt have a full size 33 inch spare. now i have one and havent had time to build my swing out. i put one ot those truckmaster spare tire relocater kits and i cant for the love of me find the 5 one. i have the 4 that go on the tailgate on and it seems tight but i can find the one for the body under the tailgate.
so if anyone has removed there tire from the tailgate and put a swing out on or have the tire in the tub. and happen to have the black rubber bumper thing. i would like to borrow it, for the trail ride.(a lil extra suport) and maybe possible throw a couple bucks to some one if they have one laying around.
damn... i cant wait!!

I would be willing to go to the class the weekend I'm there or any other weekend I might be in the area.
The class probably just covers the basics of being a trail leader. Keeping an eye on your troops, organization of vehicles, safety requirements, what to do in an emergency, etc.

Then we could limit it to JA members who went before. I mean, you are already a moderator... and if al gave you a section of bandwidth to play with just for the text of the poll, I think it should be doable.
I've seen other snitz forums where it's possible for users to setup polls... so figure we could here. And since there is a limit to who can use it, it's not like it'll take up a whole ton of bandwidth, or drive space. I mean, what... maybe 30 of us tops that were accumulated at the 3 of em?
I am willing to help with writing the code, if need be... I have a few friends who'd help guide me through it. While I might not be all that computer saavy, I can write code with a fair degree of adroitness.
JA's forums dont support poll's..
We cant limit a topic to certain people.

Thanks for putting it there.
Yep, I was the same there as I was at JAOCMJ3...you shouldn't have a problem doing whompum.
I don't have the locker anymore though, I sold my whole D35 w/locker and the front 4.10 gears and got a ford 8.8 with a limited slip and 4.88 gears.
I was my pleasure to put that tribute up for Adam. I only met him once, but I will definately miss him.

Just so no one gets skeerd off. I'm sure we'll have a group doing some other trails. I know I CAN'T afford to damage my rig because my DD went to the crusher on Tuesday. So now I'm all Jeep all the time.
The JA Neon is gone. I hadn't even signed over the title and they had already crushed it. Poor kid, she was great for this past year, 18K miles. Leaving her final total at 165,478. If I could do it over I would have at least turned her on and rolled her into a wall or post of some kind to get the airbags to deploy. Someone suggested hitting the front bumper with a sledge, but I just don't think that would have been as fun as a ride into a wall.

I am willing to lead on any of the black trails. Rattler'q tail is an easy black trail. It would be a hard for some one with 33" and open, one locker and it is cake walk. I would plan on what trails your going to run now because it will be a busy weekend and the trails will be book up with the bronco round up.

The OHV parks here are free, but that will change some day. There was some wind of it last year.

That climb at the beginning of Upper(?)

I would wait to after the run to put the flares on. Brand new flares on a run is just begging for the trees to jump out and tear them off.
Quick disconnects. Note to self: pack pickle fork and BFH.

No, if i broke a shaft coming home from wal-mart, i'd hang it up and buy a civic.
One (or 2, or 4) of the ring bolts backed out, one found its way into the teeth of the ring gear, and the rest his history. Detroit seems fine, Just need the time/money to fix it.
Pete, seems like Northfield has a really good price on re-building rears, so im getting the parts, and work done by him.
Expecting it to be back up and running by the end of next week. Taking the 44 up to him friday, and he said he should have the parts and such by no later than the middle of next week, a few days to do the work, puts me at the end of next week. If i have the time ti get the axle back under the jeep. Shouldnt be a problem.

For design, I would say keep it close to the stickers, if at all possible. And, with that in mind, got a price guestimate?
Good idea man, good idea.
Once we have a design, i can setup a place online for people to order.
These prices are my cost.
Hoodies = 24.99 + S&H
T-shirts = 13.99 + S&H
Hats = 12.99 + S&H

Trav, I'm not so sure now. I close on my house next Friday, and the business opens June 1st. SO the Jeep kinda took the backseat to that. The rear axle is In, I just get the twin shifter today. The front knuckles need to be pulled and the castor needs to be turned, and then gears and locker have to be set up. THEN, I need to get my driveshafts sent in, and shackles and shocks.....YA think I'll be done. I thought I would be but you know the story.

I know it has been said that it is too early for dates but it would be really helpful to get a date as early as possible so that some of us that need to can get vacation time. June is a prime time for people to get vac.
Last year I missed do to not being able to get off work and a DAM graduation party for my sister-in-law but thats not happening this year. Anytime in June would be good but the later the better.

I took a trip to hazleton yesterday, and every time we go up there, i notice this nice power line trail off of 93. I really want to check that out, lets see about heading up there after the snow melts.

It'll be in June sometime. I'm sure. We always talk about moving it to May.. or July.. but it never happens.. it always ends up in June. So i'm just accepting it this time.
Yea, the dancin chick is an inside joke.. Sort of an upgrade from the previous dancin chick. I hope Trav Likes it.
I'd really like it to be at PAP again, but i'm not the only one who counts of course. So if others want it moved, so be it. Ill see if i can make it. There's always the option of having another one later in the year somewhere else like we did in 2k2 (PAP in June, Uwharrie in Oct). I made it to Uwharrie, it's possible i could make Badlands. Ive never been there before though.
I like PAP so much because i'm familiar with it, and I know i can make it there. its so close, that even if i DESTROY my jeep, i'm not too far from home.
I'd love to meet you in person though. And take a look at that beast (yes, i mean your jeep, dont get your hopes up big boy).
Not sure how much fun you;d have wheelin with us though... In the past, the turnout has been such that we run much tamer trails that you're probably used to...... Maybe (Maybe!) rob could keep up with you, but the rest of us arent buitl quite like that.

Nope, no big-group meal plan for me this time, thank you
Only group thing I see planning for is space at Red Ridge campground so we could all camp in the same area.
And if there's a monsoon again, I'm staying at the motel down the road from PAP No nearly-single-handedly constructing a tarp city again in a downpour for me. (I'll also plan to put the soft top on for the trip if its gonna rain that much)

Jeep is rolling and driveable! Woo-fawkin-hoo! Turdy-sixes are on and (mostly) clearig the sheetmetal. One more round with the sawzall tonight and a few more washers under my steering stops and it should be good to go. Exhaust rattles and clangs like no tomorrow... dunno WTF is up with that. Nothing a little bailing wire shouldn't be able to fix
Gotta pack the tools/repair stuff, change the oil, and get the camping/food stuff together. Still alot of stuff to do, besides trying to find/buy a new pickup before June 30th.
And, oh yeah, gotta go get the TSLs balanced. No way in hell I'm gonna bounce down the road for 8 hours... the two hours last night coming home was about all I could manage

here's a pic of the map from mapquest. shows hazleton and tremont (which is where Roushc Creek is) and a nice little purple line running from my place to tremont.

Whew... almost got the heep in a driveable/wheelable state Spent a stupid number of hours this weekend going "backwards" in order to go forward.
Had to fall back on alot of plans and rip alot of the suspension and flat skid stuff off since there is simply no way I can get all the parts I need and the work done the right way before the PAP weekend. Got work taking too much time, mail order suppliers taking their sweet-ass time shipping stuff, wrong stuff showing up, unexpected problems, and lots of frustration. So, back to the 4" short-arm 5-link I had before... it sucks but it will allow me to wheel. The alternative is worse
Should be able to get it rolling by the end of this week... then finished up and ready to rock the follwing weekend.
I hope.

So if we were to go with stickers... same sort of design as the last JAOCMJ Vinal was? It was basically "JAOCMJ#" in a larger font, with "Uwharrie National Forest" underneath. This of corse would have Paragon Adventure park instead.
This is an example of a dash plaque. And you put them..um. on your dash. They can be simple piece of plastic engraved with the event info and have double stick tape put on them.

So what sort of order is everyone elses jeep in?
I fixed my driveshaft issue yesterday morning, relocated my brake lines a few wees ago with Jay, so i wont have a brake line issue this year. I have my spare tire carrier bracket almost complete. I may even have it back on the jeep by the time i leave for PAP.
I'd say that my jeep's pretty sound at the moment.

I still haven't seen that Monster Garage, but I did hear Jesse had a bad attitude about the wholw thing. They have really gotten away from what made that show cool, making a car into something else. The figure 8 racer and the demo derby car were so boring compared to the Mustang Mower and Impala Zamboni.

Let me know when you make the reservation. Mention to them that you like a spot close to the RV spots. Then I'll make my reservation close to where you guys reserve.

Okay... finally got a few minutes to read thru all I missed in the past day or so. Not much,I see
Mall-Rated logo = cool. But, D-C will throw a tantrum if they ever get wind of it. Hence, bad idea.
JA logo, JAOCMJ logo, top ten list sounds good. How about greasy fingerprints like the JA 12-step shirt?
Pete- you worry me. Talking to yourself, then posting as Missy to make it appear that you actually have someone to talk to.

So are you trying to tell me I'm a yuppie since I'll have my power inverter and PC to watch DVD's if it rains at night. I tell ya the only problem with the new back seat design is you can't flip the seat anymore. It used to be great to go to a drive-in, move the front seats forward and flip the back seat so you look out the back. Plenty of room to lounge and take care of business.

Nate- Florida? Hell, at least this is slightly confuseing. (spelling changed to simplify things for you)
OK, on trails… well, I guess you all saw my opinion there. Again, it would tend to depend on who all shows up.
And that brings me to my next point. My plethora of suggested polls. Numbered to help alleviate confusion, with bullets as notes and or possible options. (Keep in mind Scott is already constructing one of these… I think the top ten one)
1) The Top Ten reasons Why JAOCMJ is better than a Jeep Jamboree Poll.
• I’ve proposed 30 possibilities here. And these are what Scott is working with, I think. If others have possibilities, contact Scott bout it, I’d say. Or post it here, and let the wolves have their way with you.
• I think that this poll should be multiple guess… ie, pick the 10 you like most from greatest to least…. And let the computer decide what gets the top spot. Not sure if Scott’s applying values to votes based on where people pick them, but that’d be the way I’d do it.
2) A poll, or survey if you will to figure out at what level of build possible participants are and or will be, and what kind of experience they have.
• This poll was to be designed by yours truly, coded by Scott and hosted by Nate. That is, if we all think it’s a good idea.
• My question on this was if my idea of it being a multiple choice with a write in section at the bottom was a good idea.
Trav- you’ve got a PM.
Nate, you are a dummy dodo head.

looks like page 15.
And here they are:
quote:
Posted in origional JAOCMJ 2002 thread
Starting Point: PA I-81
From I-81, get off at exit 143 (old exit 40)
Take 924 south about 10 miles
You should see something called "Eagle Rock" a sign for it anyway
then youll see a sign for "Oneida" (its like a housing development or something) make a right at that sign.
at the first stop sign, make a left
Youll pass a bunch of homes
road curves right
youll pass a texaco gas station (i think this is the one that Paragon mentions as the "last chance for gas" on their site in their directions)
youll pass another sign for something called "The cove"
youll come to the foot of a hill, make the first paved left turn (Miller road)
youll see a blue tent sign
make a left at the 'T' in the road
youll pass some barns
come to a Y in the road, bear left
this road takes you right into the camp site.
Supposedly the whole road after making the left on to the first paves road up until the camp site is all "Miller Road" so i suppose you can just follow that.
If you get lost, you can call the camp ground at 570-384-4760

I'm only stock on 31's and it's my DD so I won't be going crazy.
I think it depends on how long it takes us to get there if something Friday is going to be possible. Now that she has her 33's back on she drives even slower. We may need to just show up and set up camp.
Just trying to get an idea if we should stop on route if we find something fun to do. Especially on 15 South. Or maybe we'll hit reptileland.

Hey all, If you can go to the Paragon site, www.paragonap.com , print and complete the waivers (one for each day) that should save us some stage area time.
We'll be there around 1 or 2 on Friday. I have to get a 6AM ski run in first since my neighbor is a teacher and it's her first day out of school to sleep in. We'll crank up the Mastercraft to start her summer right.

just scrolling thorught the 11 pages. it seams to me like pete, nate, trav, scott, an anyone else invoved with the poll for making what polls are going ot be polled. should get to talkin and set a date and just tell everyone when its going to be.
i mean i know you guys say that everyone says they are gonna go in advance(5 months ahead) including myself, and wind up not going. but the 5 or 7 of the guys that went every year knows what its like and make time to go so they should pick a date thats good for them. and just "invite" anyone to go along. well thats my opinion on it anyway.
i know i would like to go but as like the last couple few times "things" come up and i dont go, but see the pics online and kick my self in the arse for not going.
so i say that the computer litterate people should just put togher a web page a bunch of pics a lil paragraph of whats its about and use it as advrtising to make people want to go on the date that the "event staff" (pete,nate,trav,scott,and anyone else) set.
only reason why i mention this is cause it seams like you guys are the die hard go getters for makeing things happen.
just my idea on things, the only thing i need to know is how many days i need to take off due to the fact that i work a tuesday - saturaday work week. if people meet on a friday and wheel on a saturday maybe sunday. i must take 2 days off of work as compared to the people that might only have to take one on that friday.
ok so enought babble on my part. i will just keep my eye on this thread and chime in every now and then.

Sorry Nate, I'll try to not push anymore unwanted or unrequested responsibility on you.
General Question:
I still need to add front towpoints and I have the stock front bumper still. Should I attach hooks to the points where the frame meets the bumper on top of the bumper? Does anyone have any better suggestions. Cheap and easy being important for the quick result.
Side question: What is the best way to disconnect the Airbag when off road? I don't have the key switch and taking the fuses out was my thought.

I've heard that the park has done great at organizing in the past so it shouldn't be a problem. Were there a lot of large groups there last year? Just curious. Hey, if we get stuck behind another group let's make it the EB's so I can drool a little bit.

It's the having the front locked, too, and no way to disengage it that worries me. Yeah, I can use 2HI, but with a 2.5L and 36s, 2HI is gonna be a clutch-smoking exercise in a tight, technical situation.

Now, if I only had a locker....

$$$$$$$$$$$
Just buy one and take it to the meet...Nate and Ken are lining up to wrench on your rig!
Regarding diff gaurds, definitely not a mandatory thing. Don't rush in and buy some that may not be what you really want just for this run. Nothing against the ones in Q-Tec (I didn't even look at the link), but did you compare them to the 4xDoc ones?
YJ sway bar disco = 3/4" wrench and high lift handle. Remove the nuts that attach the links down at the spring plate. Flex them off the studs using the jack handle. Bungee cord swaybar and links to frame. Voila!

As far as cleaning dishes go, you can use the kitchen in my RV. If anyone wants to prepare food, you can use the RV too. Or atleast it can be a backup plan if it rains. Maybe I can talk my wife in to making breakfast burritos for breakfast Saturday or Sunday morning. We just need a head count.

Nate... TWO (count em) TWO sacks of potatoes, plus aforementioned tires, and rims...
Trav- Screw you man I'm going home <looks around> oh yeah...
WEll, on what I'll be in, I don't know either. It'll either be a CJ5 (either one nets ya a wench), a M715 (plans to get it on the road by then in swing now. OH, the yokes on the tcase, and the Deuce trans are 1410's. I have 1410's for the axles on order too), or a relatively stock 4 popper YJ with a 4 cyl and some other stuff. REally, it's up in the air now, and depends on weather.
Scott- Do you get better prices on higher quantities? Would it be a pre order thing? AND... I was kinda thinking the normal sticker design or something of the sort, with a 10 top reasons list on the back, ala the JA shirt and others of yore... I think that we've got enough to easily come up with 10 things... Maybe post a poll for attendees of past ones, and have them rate it 1-10, or whatever. It'll be a suprise what order they are in, but we'll all know what's there.

But im expecting to be packing and heading up to the camp site myself to relax a bit before the real wheelin on friday. so i dunno how thatll work out.

I'll be bringing my cooking stuff anyway. Between my father and I we have a decent set of aluminum campfire cooking supplies. We just need to be sure that we bring some dish soap to clean them with this time. we seemed to forget that last time.
