Lets see if we can get a group to tackle the mountain again! I'm looking forward to taking the TJ off road so it's no longer a "VIRGIN".
Lets try for November 17th but that date can be changed if another date is more convenient'
Sound Off!

And if anyone wants to go, a few of my friends and I are going up to Rich Ocotber 19th...
Just reply if anyone wants to go.

Anything you want to tell us Sean? Now's a good time. It's ok to admit if your a little afraid of the mountain. Have no fear though, it won't bite you. tongue.gif

Let's git it on (Wondering if the new axles will be under by then :eek: :cool: hehehe)

Man. The 17th lands right smack in the middle of my work week. Id love to go, but we're too short at work right now.
When we went on vacation, we drove the ZJ to the top with all of our crap loaded on it at nite. Why? Because it was there. :D :D And then, I was only at 3". Now I'm at 5". ;)
Can't make this one, but don't leave me out of the future invites!

Yeah Billy, I got the package!. I sure would have much rather it been delivered in person! :D :D j/k. Sorry to hear that you cant make it but we understand.
That would be amazing if tjontherocks make it. Thats a long way for a wheeling trip, but us "southerners" can show him "the" Ga Mountain. :D

Id love to come but way to far. Not up for 13 r drive then wheel then 13 hr drive i know u guys understand. Also rite now im lucky to get 180 miles to 20 gallons of gas so its be more like 60-65 bucks in gas depending on gas prices using regular each way plus wheelin gas. Well thanx for the compliment my jeep is still under construction saving for a few more expensive items about another 20,000 dollars ya know nothing to spectacular. But i must say the pics of rich mtn looked like they'd interest me. Maybe i can talk the wife into it althoght it is around her birthday and our anniversary! All credit goes to her for those tires took her a month to buy me 5 hehehehe.
Put me down as a possible - unless I get tickets to see UGA play at Auburn, I'm in.
I'm iffy. We have a sick Grandma situation. We are tring to get to new york before she dies, so I can't commit to anything right now. I will keep you posted.

so what's the roll call?
put me down as a strong maybe.

Put me down as a yes,
and my friend wants to go, he drives a 97 toyota tacoma, lifted a little, running 31s with a rear locker, is it alright if he tags along?
And I have a friend with a grand on 33s who is maybe going.

Not likely though. Sorry - hopefully next time.

Camping sounds like fun but my wife would never go for it. We'll probably drive up Saturday afternoon and stay in a motel.
