    That's cool! Please make sure they have a good working CB and some towpoints at the minimum for everyone's sake Wink If they're not already signed up on NEO, have them do so, it's free! Very Happy

    Mine live in the FJ now until May. Mud/trail/road damage might be an issue - hopefully the weather will continue to cooperate for us!

    Considering our noticeable lack of snow, what type of trails/conditions can we expect? Is there a specific plan or just drive around and enjoy the day.

    Rangeley has snow. But not much. It'll be like looking for lost treasure, haha
    Honestly it'll be whatever the peeps going want to do. In the past we've explored the area searching for "that tree".

    Had a great time, met some new peeps, a few got some Christmas trees (and a few got stuck, not me this time...)

    Found some ice, snow, and frost-going-out, good food at Sarge's. Hopefully all who went had fun too!
