Turkey Bay in W. KY April 7-9

[Gator]

Dang, I already planned a trip to Livingston on the 8th. You guys have fun.

 

[Lawn Cher']

I'm open to camping wherever since I haven't been there before... you make the call Bill.

Well, it appears we should probably camp there on site at Turkey Bay. My first choice is Rushing Creek campground (within LBL) but it's over 7 miles away down the Trace(the main N-S road in LBL). If I was staying longer, I'd go for the more scenic campground, but it might be nice to have camping onsite at the place we are wheeling ala The Badlands.

I might have a trail leader signed up for us on the Saturday part. Nice guy who served in Iraq with a Rubicon. I said we want to be shown as much as possible and most, if not all, are open to trying whatever trail possible.

Fine with me. I figure I'll show up Friday morning and check the place out. Do we need to reserve a campsite?

 

[IndyXJ]

I'm at work now,(can't you tell...lol!) but tonight I'll try to find more policies. I am pretty sure it's first come first serve.

It seems no matter what I build, I always have the smallest tires.

 

[LBEXJ]

I sure wish I could make this trip ... camping and wheelin' down there just sounds like a great time.

I postponed fixing several things on the XJ to help Aaron get his MJ ... Now that the YJ is sold, I'm hoping to be fixin' my junk that weekend.

You guys have a great time ... small groups are nice on a trip like this.

Good Turkey Bay Hillclimb pic

Here is a good pic of what we call "Buttpucker Hill" I've only ridden it up as a passenger, haven't driven it. Going up is fun, coming back down, not so fun, loL!

 

[BRIANHO13]

What about trailers and tow rigs?

 

[IndyXJ]

Do you mean room for your truck and trailer? There is plenty of room to park your stuff, but I don't know how close to the camping area,etc.(it would be walking distance worst case) I'll ask someone on Itsajeep about if room at campsite for such rig/trailers.

Walking distance is fine with me, just need somewhere to park it for the weekend.
