First Run of Fall - Elbe Hills
Who: Open invite, XJ or not, member or not.
What: Wheeling / Camping
When: October 5-7, Friday-Sunday
Where: Elbe Hills, we'll be camping in the campground and staging from it Saturday morning. I'm not going to set a time to hit the trails just because that never works. If you plan on coming out for the day, plan to be at the camp ground and ready to go around 0900.
Directions:
NWJeepn.com said:From Elbe, drive east on Hwy 706 6.15 miles and turn left immediately after crossing the railroad tracks. The road will bear to the left after .5 miles, continue to the first fork in the road and keep to the right, proceeding up hill. At the second fork in the road, keep right again, and continue up hill. At 3.07 mile from the main road will be another fork, keep to the left here and you can access several of the trail off of this road, however explore the area as there are many trails around here. From the last fork if you drive about .1 mile then turn left, then immediately right you will be at the entrance of the campground. There is a nice covered meeting area in the campground with a large stone fireplace.
As for vehicle requirements, I'd recommend a minimum of 31's and a locker. Elbe has a pretty big reputation for body damage, so be forewarned.
I don't really have a game plan as far as trails go, I figure we'll wing it NWC style. I'm hoping to be able to run all the trails in the park, and then possibly a night run Saturday.
Post up if you're in, and if you will be camping or not. This will likely be one of the last decent weekends before we enter monsoon season. Hope to see a good turn out for this!
