Nice to see this is happening again.  Is there going to be a comp this year?

No, probably no sort of comp. I'll bring some cones to set up some good runs, but thats about it. There is some very extreme stuff here. (professional rock crawling) But lots of "easier" stuff too. ***I'd reccomend AT LEAST 33'' tires and one locker*** Check out youtube: w.e. rock goldendale. The camping is only a couple hundred yards away from the area. We'll have a little "get together" Saturday night in the camping area also.

I'll should be there to say high at least.  Not sure if I'll bring the camper and SJ out to play or just drive the Tracker over the mountains and say hi.  :)

Do you have any idea how many rigs will be in attendance?? I live in Oregon, down near Eugene, and am thinkin of driving up.  Would be great, and worth the drive, if there were plenty of new wheelers to meet...

We're expecting about 20 to 25 rigs with lots of people! Come out for the day, or camp for the weekend (camping is free)
We're also having a little "get together" Saturday night next to our camp.... kopazj|removethispart|@msn.com if you need more info.
Hope to see you there.
