When- Weekend of October 15th and 16th

Where- Callalantee Campground I understand that the campground has some nasty poopers and showers (most likely the same condition as steam corner)

Cost- Regular rate is $12 per night to camp and $12 per day (per Jeep) to wheel. Lomodyj is working on a group deal if we pay in advance. It is possible that some of you could double up in some of these sites to make it a little cheaper.

Post up if you are going and arival and departure times (days) Galen thinks he can get us in the campground, T-shirts and/or plaques for $50 a head. Wheeling could be an extra $10 per Jeep per day. These rates are all up in the air depending on how many are willing to pay in advance.

More info to come...
I will be editing this first post so you can avoid having to read through 10 pages of trash talk to get any new info.

I have no clue as to whether or not i'll make it. If gas prices don't come back down, I will not be there. I refuse to pay $1000 in gas for a weekend trip...

Re: Callalantee Ride Oct 15 and 16 **OFFICIAL THRE

I just got done talking to my brother, he lives on Carolina Beach just south of Wilmington. He's getting ready for the hurricane and bitching cause theres no surf, he said the storm is coming too directly at them so the surfs a wreck. Anyway he mentioned theres some kind of offroad park opening up within a half hour or so of him. Any of you Carolina boys know anything about it??? It seems awful flat out there, is this place going to be any good??
Just wondering...Aaron

Have not heard of anything new down that way...Not far from him is Coatan National Forest...mosly mud, some deep holes filled with mud, some gravel roads with holes filled with mud...and the mud stinks...kind of a cross between Pig Sh!t and that smell in your freezer after the power has been out for a couple of weeks...

I heard about it from a bud that lives in Sunset Beach & on NC4x4. IIRC, it's some qty. of leased land 5-10 miles off Hwy.17 & 179 from Sunset/Emerald Isle/Carolina Shores. A club in SC(Agressive 4x4?) has the lease & plans to do some "improvements", but I honestly can't see much happening other than hills & moogles made from dozing up the stinky black sand... which means lot's of corresponding holes & ditches to fill with both ground(lot's of area *below* sealevel there) & rain waters! (take a guess as to which... hills vs. "mudholes", will be most popular draw /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif ) *UNLESS* they find a way to have truckloads of boulders bought in, but that would seem to be an expensive proposition given "rocks" in general don't exist down there and the $$$$ price of fuel.

Alright. Well I'll say I'm in and I'll be riding there with Greg. I'll need an open seat in which I won't be used as a man toy or be walking funny by the end of the day if I ever drop my guard. I'm not sure thats totally possible with this group, but its worth asking for.

Well, my dumb@$$ brother officially bailed on me yesterday... said he "got the dates mixed up" and had his HS reunion, a dance, & a football game that weekend. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Anyways, depending on if I pickup anyone local for the trip, I may have an open seat...

Aaron isnt your junk broke? Seems every time I talk to you its about something that's broke... =P

(BTW this is a stealth lurking post, knowing that the dixie run is coming up I had to log on to see who was going and if there were any evil schemes afoot)

Looks like you are gonna be all alone at DR...most of us blew it off for the bash...and now Aaron has vanished into the ether...or gone to Florida...

This looks like it's gonna be Caver, WHITRASH, Skellator and me...
