New to the area -- moved from PacNW a couple months ago.
Is fort fisher open to driving? do you need a permit?

 

Someone help the man I out I dont want to give the wrong info.

 

95% sure you still need a permit

 

It is only closed on Christmas day. Check this link for hours and fees: https://www.ncparks.gov/fort-fisher-state-recreation-area/feesfaqsrules

The annual pass is totally worth the money if you plan to go more than a couple times a year. It is $90 vs $20/$30 for a day pass during the week or weekend. Unfortunately its a Jan 1- Dec 31 pass so it probably isn't worth it for you to buy it with just one month left. The 2021 passes should be available soon.

Thanks for the info!!

 

We all need to get together and do a trip, guys only, family, I dont care. I'm going crazy.

 

@KILLINTIME
Gots me some new pawts.
Thinking of removing snorkel and getting a lighter, more prerunner bumper now. I'm wanting gears bad, the truck is becoming cumbersome to drive with the weight and stock gears on 34s. That and I just replaced 5100s/omes with some fox 2.5 resis and it rides nicer up front but those dakars out back gotta go. Anyone got any recommendations? Allpro standards seem like my best bet, wanting something soft but still 3 inches.

 

Damn that looks good! You’d be crazy to loose that bumper and snorkel!

 

But I agree the dakars gotta go I hate mine too, I also hate my 886 coils.

 

Looking to change from my Dakars too

 

They do amazing with weight I have to admit, but I haul air 99% of the time. I feel no quality of rear shock with make up for firmness of dakars. I am leaning towards a 10 inch and relocation just because.

 

I took out my second overload spring and that helped a lot. And also lowered it about .5” They really soak up the bumps good and have awesome flex I just get tired of them squeaking. I need to put bicycle tube rubber between the leafs.

 

I'm thinking about switching to Deavers along Archive Garage shock relocate and leaf spring hangers. Get more travel and a better ride on the rear and staying about 3".

 

Heads up, the 2021 annual NC Parks pass that gets you access to Fort Fisher 4WD beach is now for sale. It is $150 for the year. Used to be included with the rest of the parks under the $90 pass but they've made it an add-on. Can only be purchased at the office by the entrance.

Y'all should read up on the history of that place. Kinda shitty from what I've read.

Maybe it's Freeman Park... I don't remember

 

Freeman park is the shitty one

 

Other than its a drunken frat party

 

I quit going there in 2017. Too many people, too much controversy
