Fixed

Wayne lives right near me sorta, off of Vine near the parks.

[Grape Ape]

yes it clearly says FODGE on the back

[FordCummins]

So which is it BM or MM. I will see if Joe wants to get his buggy out for a test run too, he needs some break in on the gears anyway. Need to do a little trimming this week on it though.

[Grape Ape]

consensus is baldi area so far

I think there maybe some confusion here. TONIGHT there is a SSR to Baldi. THIS thread is for this upcoming Sat. We are waiting for Wayne to post up to decide where this is going to be... :cheers2:

[Grape Ape]

yes that is correct this is a saturday trip and its gonna be epic:40:

Yes I understand it if for Sat and not tonight. I am interested if he decides to go to Moose Meadows.

Have fun tonight BTW, Call (in the morning) if shit goes haywire like it sometimes does.:ack2: Im close to give a hand.

I wouldn't think MM would be very good to run right now... after that last 6" or so we got last week, and all this wind... I know my rig would struggle for sure.

Then again, if I get my trailer dealt with, I'll be going regardless of what trail we choose. :hat:

[wayne]

Sounds like everyone is down for moose meadows im down for that .. Looks like alot fresh rebuilds getting broken in so bring spare parts and warm clothes ..

[Grape Ape]

count me in where ever... baldi wasnt too bad but i would say 36"+ with lockers and a heavy foot lol

[wayne]

my rig is 27's but big winch can i go ?

[Grape Ape]

hey man....... this is YOUR trip name the place and time and im in, i dont care if u wheel a stock ford ranger

[Grape Ape]

:40: :40:

[wayne]

well start out at the diamond mall parking lot i heard you can score big there lol ..

[Grape Ape]

yea... then we can head for the glen hwy ditch thats aways exciting

[Grape Ape]

on the reals lol... i have to work sat night so need to be in wasilla/palmer by 430pm.. so id like maybe a 9am ish start sat and im down with any trail even if it is knik or the sears parkin lot:auto:

[preed]

saturday the 14th doesnt get here until august... man you guys sure plan ahead!

[TonyM]

saturday the 14th doesnt get here until august... man you guys sure plan ahead!

lol... thats funny right there....


So which is it Wayne..... Saturday the 13TH or Sunday the 14TH?

[Grape Ape]

hey.. lol we take this shit seriously we dont hit the trail unprepared

[ArcticMania]

If it is Sunday then I'd be up for it. I have a meeting on Ft Richardson on Saturday. The XJ needs to get out.

[TonyM]

Well... it's sunny and snowing (Somehow) at my house.... if this keeps up, it's looking like Knik maybe really the only viable location to go. MM or Baldi is going to suck ass if there is FEET of standing snow.... :incazzato:

[wayne]

i have no idea on the trail conditions but if you want to make it ealier and the others are game thats cool too ..

has anyone been up buffalo mine lately ?

[wayne]

lol... thats funny right there....

i have a pass for this saturday .. so game on for saturday ...

[TonyM]

has anyone been up buffalo mine lately ?

I am sure Buffalo Mine is a no go. Almost no sun exposure to speak of in the winter time, on the mt. side. On the wishbone side.... I have no idea.... but the trees will be leaned in pretty good I'd imagine, since it hasn't been cut in a few years.

[ArcticMania]

The meeting is changed to Sunday so I'm up for it now. I'm bringing the XJ this time.

[TonyM]

So... where to? Anyone want to go check out trail heads and see what looks runnable, and what doesn't? I'm next to certain that unless the temp spikes drastically.. .starting now..... knik is going to be the only practical place to go....

[Grape Ape]

well im in either way knik sounds good with all the snow im sure we can find some fun hills and drifts.... wishbone may be doable..... but its short as we found out last time... if u guys are cool with it id like to meet up around 9 or 10 so i can be back for work at 5 in wasilla,

my vote is for knik becuz i know we can run it and like i said there will be some fun to be had with the recent snow and wind

[ArcticMania]

Wayne was saying Moose Meadows on 2B2P and meet 9:30-10:00 at Tesoro on Church.

[Grape Ape]

well that works too...

[Grape Ape]

Wayne.. church rd tesoro what time... moose meadows :shocked:

[wayne]

tesoro church rd 0930-1000 ..moose meadows ..ive been told its still very doable ...

im looking foward to wheeling with you all saturday lets see how far we get ..

with the list of rigs so far, ill be the small guy ..lol ..unless joe can make it .. i hope you do joe ..love watching the sammi climb ..


temps are supposed to stay single digits so bring warm clothes and food ..

[Grape Ape]

u do have a v8 and 40s lol so we r on the same page see u there

[FordCummins]

Wayne can you PM me your cell #, I may just bootleg the buggy from my house to the trailhead and meet you guys up there. Joe is not bringing his buggy, so it will be just me. I have room if anyone wants to ride along.

Also anyone going to have CB or VHF on? Channel and freq?

[TonyM]

I will probably be going... I'll be on 158.4

[akwheelin78]

I may have smaller tires than desired for this much snow but I have done MM in the winter and it was not to bad if the trail is broken... Tony, I just called the shop and Nate said he was in if you are. Call him to confirm.

[wayne]

sweet, looks like some awsome rigs and people will be there ..

[Grape Ape]

hells yeas son :cheers2:

[TonyM]

Well... my shits loaded up.. the question is, can I get out of my driveway now...lol

[TonyM]

So.. what time we meeting... and where for that matter?

[akwheelin78]

2nd page 1/2 way down. Tesoro, Church, 9:30 to 10:00ish

[wayne]

[TonyM]

Are we going to have lunch up there or anything? I got all the stuff to cook up some grub (Tables, stove, pans, etc.).

Or are we fending for ourselves.... :crazy:

[wayne]

[TonyM]

Well... I'm going to bring some hotdogs/brats, maybe some eggs and bacon... we'll see.

[ArcticMania]

Doesn't look like I'm going now. We worked on the rear bumper and just finished it. Still need to work on the front tow points and get things ready. I'll be ready for the next run. :mad2:

[akwheelin78]
