I think this is a great idea, in '06 we had a big convoy planned to Ramjam but do to many reasons from borders to personal issues it never happened.

So..... Why not do one here? it's reasonably close for most of us and we can do a camping/weekender out of it.

Would want to pick a weekend that would be Just us I assume, not on any of the already scheduled events there..... or do we?

Let's get some input on this!

I'm in!

awsome idea !!!
now i just got to get my ass in gear and get my truck ready 8)
{agree}

A drive to BC sure is better than 30+ hours of driving to get to Ramjam, aka Disney OK. Hopefully I'll have my truck going in a year!?

sounds good so far, now where and when?
Summer for the people with kids, but other than that I'm not sure. That's what this is about, any ideas?

I have new leaf springs, put in Jungles rear leaf brackets, new drive shafts, put in a fuel cell, fix da winch, mount shock brackets, shorten steering shaft, finish up crossover steering, wire up E-locker, etc. Should be do-able for this fall, if I just do it!

So, I am guessing you mean next summer? If so, that should give me time to get my Jeep put together and roadworthy.
Yup 2011 summer so one year to prep vehicles for the trip ;)

begining of july is when it realy "opens". the snow is usually 98% gone. nights and mornings are really cold. mud is very and gets very frustrating after your 4th or 5th manditory mud pit, that is if you haven't broken you truck.

aug long weekend is usually a zoo. i prefer the weekend after the long weeekend.

sept long weekend there is always chances of snow. snow on that trail sucks balls.

I'm not really interested in the Aug long weekend, it would be a mess

we don't want a walk in the park with this trip, but we don't want everyone to have huge repair bills ;)

Up here we love to go Snowx4ing in the mountains, especially with mud ;D

Sooo... is this trail end up at Coalmont? I checked out some of the maps, and what I can make out, that's where it goes. Deal is, I would be trailering my rig out and need to have a return point to my truck/trailer. Is Princeton kind of the central place one could unload? I can drive my truck on the hi-way, as it's registered as on-hi-way, but, is in fact not really road legal. I like to have pavement trips nice and short. Just wondering. Thanks for any info on that.
