[kun109]

Matt K you need to come, no more once a year in the fall events! Bring the family. :D

Man, wish I could. I think the only way the girls would tolerate a 4 hour ride in Feb, is if they were going skiing for the weekend. Thanks for thinking of me though.

[galen211]

Then come by yourself! You have a Disco for those cold winter days.

[kun109]

Sorry Guys a little late to the thread I will be there and a customer with his light built '04 D2 will be joining me.. If everyone shows we will tent it no big deal See you all soon

[LC Rover]

Randy;
Take my spot...wouldn't be able to make it

[Evan]

Informal start is Friday evening At Pine Hollow Departing for cabin around 8 or so

Please post up if your coming Friday night or Sat AM so as we don't leave any one behind


I strongly suggest tire chains ,front and rear recovery points and at least one tow strap given the recent weather. I'll bring my chain saw , a second one may be handy with the recent ice storm . This ride in may be the most fun yet !!!

[Frank84]

I'll be there Friday

[devildog01]

I'll be there Friday night with Dan. I'll bring my chainsaw as well.

[DiscoSux]

Dave and Jensen on Friday night...

Thanks Evan!

[rvrsrvc]

Sorry folks, wont be able to make it this year either. So many things vying for my attention.....

[galen211]

Friday as well for me.

[devildog01]

Calling for 12"+ Thursday up in Canadensis. That plus the 10"+ already up there should make for an interesting trip back to the cabin.;)

[bbettridge]

Evan, be there Friday evening as well!
Looking forward to it as usual

[bbettridge]

Damn Trevor....... Where are your priorities man!

[devildog01]

Trevor has lost his way. I think it's time for an intervention.

[Frank84]

Perhaps a better question would be - is anybody coming SATURDAY?

[scatterling]

Looks like I will be heading up Friday by myself, Kelly staying home.
I dug around yesterday and only found one set of chains, anyone have a spare set for my rear?
tires are 235/85/16

[devildog01]

No but I just bought a full set of v-bars from tirechains.com hopefully they will be here before Friday.

[Evan]

Good idea Frank !
My scouts are saying 24 to 30 inches of snow on the road , Be ready for a interesting ride to camp !
Pine hollow is ready for us this year, expecting us to start to roll in around 6ish . They did say the parking lot is a bit tight and we may have to park at the Methodist church .

Bring your cold weather gear , a snow or scoop shovel , recovery gear ,tire chains and beverage of choice

[Frank84]

Looking forward to this!

[galen211]

Looking forward to this!

x2! I just hope we can get in.

Sorry everyone, I was on vacation last week. The first post is now updated with the list of attendees.

Sorry to hear you can't make it Larry, Trevor and Kelly, you will be missed!

[80-One]

Just back from the Winter Romp in Maine so vehicle is already loaded up! Just need fuel and screen wash!
This should be a great SCC!!

Anyone need some chains? I have a couple of axle sets in the "for sale" section!

Cheers
Steve H

[scatterling]

Thanks dood!!!! Ordered, should be here today.

[galen211]

Just finished up last night my latest thing for SCC. Now I just need to figure out how to use my chains.

I think you'll get some use out of that this weekend!

[80-One]

Re. food etc. Suzie has said we're bringing Starbucks coffee ground for the percolator, plus assorted Starbucks pastries for breakfast/lunches.

Cheers
Steve H

[kun109]

Hey guys, been super busy at work and haven't posted any of my questions. First, what else is needed in the food or beverage department? Please let me know so I can contribute. I also plan on coming up Fri, so what and where is pine hollow? And lastly, does anyone have an extra set of tire chains like Niel previously posted about earlier. Same size tires, 235/85/16. Thanks, and looking forward to the weekend, Matt.

[galen211]

Matt, you want to head to Canadensis, PA. The Pine Hollow Inn is near the town square, but I'm not sure of the address. It's a very small town so you can't miss it. Do you have my cell #?

[kun109]

Yup, I 've got it. Thanks.

[galen211]

I test fitted a tire chain tonight to make sure I'm nit figuring it out Friday night.

One thing I realized and putting this out there. You may want to bring a tarp or blanket to lay down when you are doing this. I would have been soaked to the core if I hadn't.

[Frank84]

You'll be putting the chains on in the dark friday night so might want a good flashlight and/or the kind that goes on your head. Come to dinner dressed to play in the snow afterward.

[galen211]

I own a Land Rover. I always have a headlamp in the center console. :)

[DiscoSux]

"New" front diff going in tonight! Thanks Randy!

Jensen is stoked. We're bringing the Disco as I have chains that fit it and it has a winch. The RR has trials tires and no winch so it will stay home.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone ('cept Brett of course)

[devildog01]

Love you to Dave;)

You can't miss it. Its the only restaurant in town. Just follow the oil trail!

[scatterling]

Wooooohooooo!!!!! two more sleeps........:D

[devildog01]

It's almost like Christmas but with unreliable British vehicles!!!!!!!

[DiscoSux]

Any update on the conditions?

finishing up the diff install tonight, check the fluids and pack!

[galen211]

I've been curious too. Yesterday it hit 50 here and things started to melt fast. Makes me wonder if we won't be dealing with water as much as snow/ice.

[ROVERMAN1]

Hey guys,

I have a family emergency and won't be able to attend. Hopefully someone can still use our spaces.

Have fun!!!!!!!!!!

[galen211]

Sorry you can't make it. :(

Any last minute takers?

[DiscoSux]

Sorry you can't make it. :(

Any last minute takers?

Randy and his guest will need a bunk. I think it is -2/+2 so we are even?

[galen211]

Randy and his guest will need a bunk. I think it is -2/+2 so we are even?

Trevor and Larry dropped out and Randy + guest were already added. Keep up with the first post!

3 open spots are available.

[DiscoSux]

Keep up with the first post!

I don't wanna... :p

[Disco96JSWB]

3 open spots are available.

Jake and I will take two spots if still available.

We'll be at the restaurant by around 6pm.

This is last-minute but Donna volunteered a fresh batch of home-made fudge and we'll grab a case of water and some other snacks and drinks.

[Evan]

Its hard to tell what the conditions will be until we are actually on the road. We could run into post whole deep snow or it may be hardpacked by snowmobiles and a fast trip in , There may be trees down from the earlier ice storm . It will be fun no matter what we get into ....thats why we're going right :cool:

looking foward to seeing everyone at pine hollow tomorrow around 6

[Frank84]

See everyone around 6 tomorrow.

Fudge sounds great Jeremy!

[DiscoSux]

It will be fun no matter what we get into ....thats why we're going right :cool:



damn right Evan! Bring it!

[crazyfish]

Mucho thanks to SCC for allowing ROVERS to show up once again. It was a great time, good to catch up with everyone. Always my favorite event. I seemed to have lost a few hours sleep somewhere along the road however.....

[kun109]

Just wanted to second that, thanks everyone. Especially the cooks! Can't wait till next year.

[bbettridge]

Great time for us even with little weekend wheeling time. As usual, just enjoyed being there with all.

Bill

[80-One]

Evan ……….many, many thanks.

Now we know the cabin is definitely a sacred place as the Big G upstairs delivered just the right among of snow to make it VERY "interesting"!!!

Great to see everyone.

Cheers
English

[DiscoSux]

Yes! THANK YOU EVAN!

That is one for the history books me thinks. Jensen and I had a fantastic time. Night wheeling with Frank and crew was great. We didn't go far but it took a long time! I missed going to Monument Rock for the sacred nectar but there was no getting up that trail.

Also thanks to all the ladies that kept things in order. Thanks to Bill for his work with helping Evan around the cabin all weekend. Thanks to Sean (sp?) and ladies for the great eats!

Oh! Almost forgot!


Thanks to Galen for wearing the polar bear pajamas. :eek:
Thanks to Randy for setting his cot up right in front of the fire and in the middle of everything. :p
Thanks to Rob for staying in his bed this year.
Thanks to Frank for shoveling every time someone got stuck on the way in.
Thanks to Brett for keeping his cussing to a minimum when his winch rope broke 5 times. Also, for showing us the Equipe makes bumpers for posers, not wheelers.
Thanks to Brett and Dan for forging the trail for the rest of us.
Thanks to Skater Dave for letting his dog run away when we were all trying to leave.

[DiscoSux]

Galen, did you pay for lunch at the weiner joint? I didn't! I left and completely forgot!!!

I called and gave them my cc number last night.

[DiscoSux]

Jensen got bored when we stopped for lunch...

That video is too funny!

[Frank84]

Thanks to all - absolutely fantastic time! Definitely a ride to remember Friday night.
