We can meet at the outpost. It is where we are going to be getting out passes from anyway. I plan to be on the left side of the building, and I'll be parked so you can see the windshield banner from the road. :thumb:

Do the passes cost? If so, do we need cash or are cards ok?

PS. I figure I will be getting to the Hotel at about 9pm(ish) Friday night.

Cards are fine, so no cash needed.

Damn you are getting there late! Lol my son and I will probably be passed out by then.
We will be up by six to eat and head out around 7ish.

I was there just a few weeks ago and the hill at the end of Dutch John was extremely slick. If you have a dry spell before you go then it may not be an issue but we had to winch everyone who didn't have MT's with solid tread and at least a rear locker. Just a friendly heads up.

I appreciate the heads up. If it's the same hill that I'm thinking of it was a bit of a struggle even when it is dry.

It is a struggle when its dry too bud. You need a lot of skinny pedal when its sloppy with mud

Making our way to Uwharrie.

I've passed by that a bunch of times, never actually stopped in!
Enjoy the Uwharrie trip! Wish I could make it...

The campsites are nicely set-up.


Now it's time to set-up my camping stuff.

Looking forward to the morning on the trails!

I'll try my best to camp for the full run, but I've got a feeling my wife and kids will insist on room.

See you I the AM.
