Slick Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 (edited) I am planning a weekend wheelin & camping trip to Badlands in Attica, Indiana. Any rig from stock to modified, beginner to experienced is welcome. Weekend of July 15th, 16th & 17th. (some of us are arriving on the Friday) We need to get more Pathy's out on the trails out here! I can accommodate long distance travellers. Badlands is 3 hrs from my house. (I am in eastern Indiana near the Ohio border) If you want to go but don't want to wheel your rig, no problem! ride with one of us! if you want more info, please send me a message here on the forums, or email me at pathy4x4@yahoo.com this is the campground a short distance from Badlands we'll be staying at Summers Campground Edited June 11, 2011 by Slick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldSlowReliable Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Depending on my employment status over the coming weeks, I'm not sure I'll be able to attend $100 each way just for gas puts a little bit of a damper on it! only time (and lowes hiring staff) can tell..

dududuckling Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) Hi Slick, I'm interested, but I can't confirm my attendance until sometime mid June. What kind of trail will you guys be hitting? Anything for my stock R50? Any deep water crossing or are there bypasses? And I assume wheeling will happen on Friday and Saturday, then pack up on Sunday? I'm coming from Rochester Hills, MI. Looks like its gonna be six hours drive for me. Pathy got a 2" lift with front skid plate. Hope to get 255/85/16 KM2 and mid skid plate by then. Will I be the only one with the R50? http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3385294/2000-nissan-pathfinder Thanks, Andrew Edited May 22, 2011 by dududuckling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be wheeling both days and will leave Sunday afternoon. If we all get up there early enough Friday, maybe we'll make a run?? maybe consider rollin down with Jason? i don't know how far apart you guys are, but mebbe shoot him a Pm and see what's up? or I can call him. do you know, i STILL have you on my yahoo messenger from, oh, 3 or 4 years back?? lol Edited May 22, 2011 by Slick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
