3rd Annual Steel Soldiers Military Vehicle Rally at Rausch Creek Offroad Park October 22nd - 25th
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the new and un-informed:
Fun filled weekend consisting of:
-Convoying to event - I will be determining rendesvous points based upon attendees location.
-Offroading - The opportunity to legally test your MV's natural born abilities on 2,000 acres in Coal Country. It wasn't made to sit in a garage
-Camping - Low Impact, carry in/carry out. Porta craps on site, No running water. Alternative lodging is located about 25 min. ride down 81 (more details to come)
-Parts trading - Bring your extra stuff to sell
-Consumption of Alcohol is permitted only after you've finished offroading for the day
-Fire is permitted
-Associated Rally T-shirts will be available (maddawg308 did an excellent job last year)
-Please go to the Rally section at the bottom of the forum page for previous rally info and pics!!
Other non-military vehicle welcome - note that military Chevy trucks (CUCV) were unable to continue on the trails last year with tactical vehicles like M37 and M35's w/o risking breakage. Expect the trails to cause rock scrapes on the undercarriage as they range from hilly slow speed rock crawling and old log roads.
