I was planning on joining lilbuddy's snow trip, and had planned some additional visiting of some friends around the trip. Since the trip is cancelled, we're still planning on heading up there for the weekend, and wouldn't mind getting in some wheeling of any sort if there is anything relatively close thats pretty good

Be happy to have anyone join us, if we figure out a place to wheel

cohassette is alright and isnt very far away. its just a short drive away about 20mintues up cohassette road. theres also the clay pits out in oroville and apparently theres a huge rockpile out there now to thats comparable to little sluce. i want to go check that out as well.

I've never been to either one, so if you're still free on the 27th, you want to head to one or the other?

I'm thinking about heading down around mid day to check it out. Talking about meeting up with some other guys. Moon Rocks would be bad ass, and if it doens't snow soon I'll plan a trip there, but I got to be in town Saturday pm.

Cool, Shouldn't be able to miss eachother. I've got a silverish cruzer with a tube front end. I posted it on a local board as well, so we'll see how many people show up.

Ill probably be out there with a 3rd gen stock runner and my bro (green 95 yj on 35s) around noonish...

Wilson · « **Reply #24 on:** Jan 26, 2007, 07:27:06 PM »

Cool, should be a decent turnout then. I'll probably be out there a little more towards 1, to meet up with a firend.

Bring your guns too, the shooting range is right next to the clay pits. You can take your broken parts and blast them into little(r) pieces.

kiyul4130 · « **Reply #26 on:** Jan 26, 2007, 11:44:49 PM »

ok everyone so i cant make it tomorrow because i have to work at noon. the pile is actually a lot smaller than i expected but its fun. i went through it one way which seemed to be the easier way (its in the shape of a rectangle) and then i tried to hit it backwards but got denied. theres a big spot towards the end or begining which ever way you hit it and it can swollow a 40"ish tire pretty well next to a SHARP rock!. my wheel base is LONG so thats what kept me from going only about half way through and i didnt feel it was worth it to hammer down. needless to say it was fun here are some pics.
