Giving my truck more money than it deserves.
Well its looks like I may be in PA for work on the 13th... If I do make it out is there any places you recommend staying at? No camping since I'm going to have to be showered for work lol. Will I be purchasing the standard $40 day pass or is there a special event one? I can't send the truck too hard because I have to drive it home and have no winch, but I do have tow points front and rear.

You might have to look for a hotel. The cabins I’m staying at don’t appear to have running water. Just a bed and heat.

As far as the off roading. I’m pretty much in the same boat. No winch and I have to drive it back to the western side of the state.

I am well set up with recovery equipment. Won't have time to get my winch setup on the trailer though

Great... Too late now. I already spent the money and made reservations. I wondered about it being a federal holiday and all.

I'm not terribly concerned, last time i was there i was part of one of those big events and I never saw another jeep except back in the parking lot, though we were on some harder trails that day it's still greens there and back. at rausch you can really feel it because you'll have traffic jams at specific obstacles, AOAA doesn't really have that so people just kinda float through the park

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
I’ve got one park name for you.
