Background:
ZUKIWORLD events are a series of adventures located in North America for ZUKIWORLD online readers and Suzuki 4x4 owners. This means LJ, SJ410, SJ413, Samurai, Sidekick, X-90, Tracker, Vitara, Grand Vitara, XL-7, Equator. If it's a Suzuki 4WD vehicle you qualify! The goal of having ZUKIWORLD events and activities is to meet new people, network in person with Suzuki enthusiasts and nuts, eat good food, bask in the sunshine and drive some of the best, and most picturesque 4 wheel drive trails in the World.

The philosophy of ZUKIWORLD events is to see some "neat" things. There will most likely be some difficult situations, terrain, obstacles, and environment, that we encounter. First and foremost, the ZUKIWORLD adventurer should be prepared and have a good attitude. If your looking for catered meals and 5 star hotels, you will be disappointed. During most of these adventures, we will be camping on the trail, cooking over a fire, and will no doubtedly be dusty and dirty. If this sounds fun to you, sign up now!

Thank you, -Eric

Is this the 2009 Q&A Thread?

I hope I can make it out to a couple events this year, but it may be out of budget. In case I can only afford one event, what the one to shoot for? I'm in Northern California, and wiling to travel to some of the larger events around here ('ZUKFARI in Moab UT (when?), Zukapalooza in Arizona May, PowerFest Oregon October). Which one is the "event to go to" and why? I don't mind driving a few hundred miles as long as there's a good group. I'll have a 4-door on 29" open (can lock if needed), and a 2-door (not sure if Sami or Kick yet) on 35" available. I'm equally happy playing in dunes as I am in rocks.

Thanks for the help.

We were talking about doing the Whipsaw trail and maybe going over Chinahead/Mud Lakes. Not quite central BC but quite a drive for the guys from Oregon.

Yes! This would be cool... What time of year is best? I would think early in the season because the 'skeeters would be real thick in the early fall, right?

The best time to go over the Whipsaw is usually the last 2 weeks of August and the first week of Sept. The bugs are bad in July and Aug, and sometimes there is still snow on the trail in early July if the winter was bad.

Vancouver is only 4 hours from Penticton - not much of a drive. If you did the Whipsaw it would be even less of a drive.

I would be up for a Naches trip one of these weekends; I know we're into the summer a bit already, but I had a great time there with you ZW guys a few years ago and would like to do it again soon...
