Cincinnati Area Thread (Tri-State, Ohio/Kentucky/Indiana)

A friend of mine has basically an endless suppy of deep cycle golf cart size batteries that he can give me for nothing. Gonna wire 2 of them inside this bad boy for some power at camp.

 

Pretty sure a lot of people are going to rrg this weekend. Somewhere on Facebook there is a group (possible 20 + rigs coming). My buddy nick and I will be running hard trails with that group Saturday as long as it isn't stupid wet

 

I like the idea of this!

 

Hey I said I was in depending on weather

 

I'm running a pelfrey and love it

 

I want one please?!

 

I'm down to camp this weekend if I can park the truck somewhere and catch a ride to the site lol

 

Either there or I'm going to go towards Asheville, NC. Why, no clue. Just beautiful land out that way.

 

I wont be camping. Ill be staying at hotel lol

 

And you were counted.

As dry as the last 2 weeks have been around here, it'll take a major rain event Thursday to make it muddy on Saturday. Water will stand in places, but it's so hilly, it'll run off an dry off.





That said......There in April....while it rained. There in June....the day after a 4" spring rain. Not that bad. Rock can be wet and have some traction. So can mud.

Or not.

Meet @ gas station by hwy ramp

Or

Meet @ Miguel's

Il'll pick.....Cb chanel 10.

2 (Miguels)is more peaceful.

1 (Citgo???) y6has quicky mart.

Be ready to GO by 10am.

(We have bankers apparently)

Someone grow a winch. Just 1 on the list so far.

3 or 4

Best I can do is a 50/50. Wife, and 2 good friends that we haven't seen in 5 years, and 2 "hobbies we both love. May come to a coin flip.

May be the last good chance for a few weeks with Christmas and all....

 

I need a good excuse to use my new RTT

 

Go run Hurricane Creek. Super scenic little trail.

Thought it was. But i have been wrong before.

Once.

Maybe.

I like the CBI like Brandon has.

Unless you wish to impact big trees at high rate of speed, aluminum or hybrid bumpers (ie light) earns high marks.

Aluminum bumper and synthetic winch line saves 100 lb.

It's real easy to get these truck heavier than a house.....

 

Do you have a link for me?

NVM found it, it's for 2nd gens

 

I've been off the closest exit close to there and looked around i believe. Is that the side coming back towards KY or going East?. There was a bridge i crossed that went up the mountain to some dirt road coming back East. Can't remember if i seen that trail off the main highway or not.

You hit it headed West. I don't think you were on it as there is no bridge like that. (edit - I see...that bridge is north/west and on the opposite side from Hurricane Creek Rd)

Not easy to see...a guardrail ends on a sweeping curve and its just tucked right there between the end of the rail and a rock wall lol. I guess you could watch for that "Exit 7 - Harmon Den - 1 Mile" sign a few hundred feet before it.


Went October last year....suuuper good color...but that probably has passed

 

The camp site is car friendly

 

Not if camp is at the lake/pond mentioned earlier.

 

I have a snatch strap and maxtrax
That's good enough right? Haha
