Anyone going out this weekend? Looking for some fun times, wheeling? I'm in San Jose, Ca and willing to travel two to three hours for a day or possibly overnighter. Just a thought... Weekend is free.:eek:

Not all of us :(
 
Down for what ever my jeep can do, and carry me home. I don't mind some easy trails but getting down and dirty doesn't bother me either. What do you have in mind. Or where's a better place to go then Holiister hills, locally.

Well stay tuned for more upcoming NorCal runs. We try to get out as much as we can to the trails. I've been talking with a few of them and we may have something coming up soon.

It's a really fun trail, sad I have to work that weekend. Trusts me, I'd rather be hanging out with my NorCal Jeeping family any day.
 
I know a couple people were talking about running through Fordyce and out committee, anyone up for that on Sat 10/17?

We were. There might be something else for that weekend. Does Fordyce close for weather? Or how late can we run it?

I do want to do Fordyce to committee.
 
It's open year round, obviously you'd have to contend with weather though. Last year on a snow run we got up there and there was about a 50 yard section that was a sheet of ice. Some Toyotas were trying to go up it, the had to winch themselves little by little up the ice.
