Uwharrie wheeling camping 9/13-14/2014

Wow. I just remember I get to sign my boy outta school to go

 

Lol. I remember those days well. (Sigh)!now I'm lucky if they return a text.

 

Are we there yet?

 

Hey guys, been talking with my cousin who has been to Uwharrie with his Jeep and thinking of heading out there. I have little to no experience 4-wheeling and wondered if there was any tips you guys might give a newb for going to Uwharrie. I have an 02 X-cab TRD V6 automatic. Totally stock at the moment. My cousin told me he did the whole thing in his stock Wrangler (except for tires) and thinks I would be ok as well. What say you guys? This is something I'd really love to do and bring my wife with me as well.

 

There's something there for everyone.

 

I will be flying solo, and not camping. My kitchen pass expires at 1am eat.

Had no idea there was a thread for this trip I feel left out

 

Dunno why. You found it now!

 

Well this is a good group to go with then. I went stock during the rain and even the easy trails were slicker than snot. Good to have friends around that will spot you and give you a tug when you need it. Bring a tow strap. And have Dramamine ready for the wife.

Oh, and speaking from experience, make sure she doesn't take off her seat belt!

There are two trails that I wouldn't tackle stock if you like your sheet metal. They are clearly marked on the trail map you get when you buy your pass. Great to have a guide your first time there.

 

like you, i had little to no experience with wheelin and i had a lot of fun at URE a few months back. you should go

 

Yes. Everyone go. I haven't been yet so I need a guide

 

I'm gonna try to bring my 4runner. Currently trying to figure out why a water pump bolt is missing.

 

That's not good

 

So who's gonna back out cause of rain?

 

Rain? I definately wanna go now.

 

Hope yall have a good trip. Im only about 30 minutes from URE but unfortunately I have a wedding on the 13th and its my birthday. Wish I could at least meet some of yall, hopefully next time!

Next time Ill load up the taco and bring both four wheelers.

 

^^^^^Oh and someone please take a crap ton of pictures!!!

 

Anybody else that's coming have a winch or any other recovery gear?

 

Thanks for the replies everyone! Won't be able to make this particular outing but I'm thinking I should be able to go in Oct. (Getting new tires) I think the guide Idea is a good one so I'll keep an eye out on this and other Uwharrie threads. Now someone recommend me a good set of tires!
