That is zuwharrie... thats one reason I picked it Uwharrie is going to be a mess that weekend. there is ZuWharrie, plus another big event going on there that weekend... looking like 200+ vehicles.
zuwharrie is the gather of all the zuks (suzuki's and geos) in uwharrie, they do it a couple times a year.
Forget that.. I was at Uwharrie this past spring with it must have been Land Rover invasion or something.. It was really crowded.. I can't imagine it full of Zuks... Yeah.. Gulches for me.. It should be quiet and enjoyable day of wheeling..
So we have a group now... My local club has, as of today, 3 -5 rigs coming. I expect we'll probably have a few more by the time November rolls around.
Official dates are Nov. 6th - Nov. 8th. I plan on either leaving out late Thursday, or early Friday (havent decided yet). We are also looking into both Hotel and camping info.
Starting a list now... I would love to see a bunch of JK's out there (so would Skip)
Depends on if it rains or not.. They have some mud pits there that are pretty deep.. And it is that sticky red clay goop.. The kind that once you are in.. You are STUCK!!!!!
1st time there, Skip (the owner) told me that he had one rule for my vehicle:
STAY OUT OF MY MUD
He said there are no holes that my vehicle has a chance of making it through... some of the holes may look small, but can go as far as 30' deep.
Its tight gulches, rock climbs and off camber points, I had a blast there, hopefully he's got some of the new stuff he was talking about doing open by then.
If you want mud, we got plenty of that down here... check out carolinabackwoods.com
most of the mudholes are the drainage runoffs they have in place, as well as a couple areas for mud bogs, but this place gets a lot of buggies.
He told me if you really cant resist, your more than welcome to try, but he nor the park will be responsible for you walking home. He only guarantees that your vehicle will enter the park... whether it leaves or not is entirely up to you.
... and I'm being serious... there are certainly some minor mud holes you can hit along the trails, but its mostly about the climbs.
For anybody that coming, we're negotiating a group rate for a local hotel. Once I have the information, I'll let you know... dont book anything till I post up.
Just talked to Skip, said it looks to be a gorgeous weekend up there. My local group will be rolling into town hopefully by 1pm Friday so we can get some wheelin' in.
I wont be making it for this trip, I am going up to NJ and then on Monday have an interview in Chambersburg, PA and no its not for River Raider
