Shoe Creek run in Va. March 18-20, 2011

[OverEasy]

Shoe Creek Wheeling Trip. March 18-20th.


Since the last trip was so much fun and people want to return soon, some have looked to run the trail March 18th through the 20th. Yes the 18th through the 20th means there will be some camping involved. I prob. will be going up either Fri. the 18th or Sat. the 19th and coming back on Sun. We'll see how it plays out as time closes in on the dates. Hopefully I may have my dedicated wheeler on this trip!

If you've never camped or wheeled, this place is VERY beginner friendly, great place to try both wheeling and camping out. This should be another fun group going. Just ask any of the guys that went on the last run if they had a good time. . . and that was just 1 day. Running the trail and camping are both free. No money is needed other than gas or if you decide to stop somewhere along the way and eat. Campsites are plentiful along this trail system and that means there is room for you!


Please feel free to pm or ask questions regarding this event. I'll be happy to answer any and all questions that I can.


Hope to see ya out!

Jeremy

Sorry for the dp mods but I actually just saw this post.

Great directions to the trail head. We are now trying to plan on when people are leaving so no one gets left behind. I know that I will be leaving from my place (where people are MORE than WELCOME to meet) Fri. (18th) early in the evening. More than likely we will be catching another group at the FL like last time.

The details are still being worked out. I am willing to give directions to my place so people can follow to the FL and then to the trail if wanted.

You're fine! :thumbsup:

Yeah, it's a Nissan Xterra. He's one of the guys in our local group that some friends and I started. Hes done quite a bit to it since he bought it. We have a pretty good mix of vehicles when we roll out to the trails!
