i will be heading down to the badlands late sat. camping and wheeling on sun. i will be trucking around the green trails (still new to this) also trying to get my brothers durango out there but he is being a sissy for now

if any one wants to meet up and run some trails or hang out by the fire sat.night let me know i was thinking about going to the summers camp ground but i will also be with the inlaws and there 4 wheelers so we might stay at the badlands camp insted, i will know later in the week for sure


:party:
 
Just an FYI if you feel like sleeping the night before wheeling, i would suggest against badlands campground. I've been to summers, and its a nice place. Lots of relaxed campers there. I would be good for wheeling sat. but not sunday. Man its been awhile since i been out to badlands. I'm starting to go through withdrawl!
 
If you aren't aware, this is the weekend of Zookimelt. It may be more crowded than you are used to..I've heard the campground by the front entrance is out of hook up spots. Just sharing...

Its not bad at the BL campground unless it rains. I have not been to summers yet but I've heard its mighty nice there too.

zookimelt is a yearly gathering of all things suzuki :nono:
 
yup, all things suzuki. previous years they've said hundreds of people show up, but in the past few it's dropped off. stories of how crowded the close campground was. not sure last years numbers, and i've heard it'll be less this year. officially the event is through sat but i know some of our guys (CORE) are planning on running on sunday as well since they're up there.

if you get a chance to pull any zooks out, you have to post pics...
 
So you mean you are going to have pull out all of those ultra compact, rice burning, 4x4s all weekend?:gee:

I wouldn't underestimate those little boogers! They are pretty capable when built right!
 
Think Stacey and I will be there sunday. Going to bring her son along and show him what its about. Gotta a cb channel your going to use?

If you guys can't make the 11-12th, I am supposed to be up there the 25th with a buddy who just returned from Iraq so that should be my next outing.
