Group Overland Trip

[Jim Oaks]

I'd be down for it, but I don't really want to be taking the B2 off-road where I could be denting and scratching it up. TRS-2 really isn't an option because I think the motor is in need of overhauling.

From what I understand the route through the texas hill country isnt one that would leave a bunch of back country pinstripes on our rigs. It seems to be pretty easy trails and a water crossing or two. I have a .gpx file of the route if anyone is interested in seeing it.
Here are some pictures from the most recent group that went

funny thing is during my trip to Clayton last month we learned that K-Trail is ALL off-road from Clayton, OK to Mena, AR. My cousin and I are talking about doing it this coming spring if we can free up the time. He talked to a few fireman from Durant that done it in 2 days but said 3 would be idea. you will need 4 wheel drive but I heard its not that bad. would really depend on the weather.

if you go to Google maps and find Clayton the trail is just to the east of there. If you have the labels on it will show you K-Trail and you can follow it to Mena.

I've heard the K-Trail is pretty good.

Starting to fall together. That sounds like a fun run. Not too far and about the right time of year.

These guys were on the k-trail and someone set a fire on the trail trying to trap them on the trail.

I just saw that over on expedition portal. Lots of marijuana out there. The trail looks fun though. Im not sure if my little 2wd could make it even after the locker though. Lots of scratches to be expected too from reading other threads.

I think with enough people( i'm sure a few will have protection) we'd be ok.

Dont tempt me with the D35 and t case haha

Believe me I want to take it, but she hasnt quite gotten to the point of wanting to risk scratching the paint haha

 

[country0001]

I'll have an extra truck if you wanted to take a 4wd. Otherwise we may just have to keep a towstrap handy.

From the pics on pirate, those trucks didn't seem extreme, so 31's would probably be ok.
