2024 Hell Hole Run

k-jeep · 2024-05-13T06:37:29-07:00

I will lead this run this year, but I'm stealing Josh's 2023 post. 😀 Hell Hole Jeep Trail Run! Friday May 31st Start: Meet at Georgetown 7:30 a.m. Depart for trail at 8:00 a.m. Come early if you need to fill up on gas or stock up on food. Worton’s Market opens at 6 a.m. and makes excellent breakfast sandwiches. Try one and support Georgetown. Goal be on the trail at 10:00 a.m. Be off the trail by 3:00 p.m. Where = Hell Hole Reservoir This run is not recommended for stock rigs. Basic club vehicle requirements apply. In addition suspension lift is recommended. Minimum 33 inch tires and a winch are required. Will limit the group to 10 rigs. This trail has a couple challenging sections. A winch can come in handy. Not having a winch can cause others to have to pull vehicles out or over obstacles which can double the time it takes to run this trail. Please be respectful of others and sit this run out if you don’t have a winch. We will have to help each other out as we go over obstacles. Participants should be willing to help others and to help spot vehicles over large obstacles. A positive and friendly attitude is required. A day in the Jeep on the trail priceless!

I should be able to make this run. Count me as a solid maybe! Does anyone know how the snow situation is on the trail at this point?

Only off on Tuesdays and Sundays so can't make this one darn it...

I love this trail and haven't made it all the way to the end, father's day many years ago we went and I think that's when Dale broke his ankle and we met Tyler (radio guy)

I'm in. Top is off the Jeep. I put it back on in the fall and never drove it in the rain. Should have left it off all winter. Hell Hole here I come.

I hope we get more people to go on this run. We have had some large groups in the past. This run is our unofficial start of 4X4 season.

Hey guys. This is one of my favorite runs for sure. This snuck up on me and not to brag.... But we did just return from a cruise I surprised my wife with last week. My week back is very short because of the holiday today and this run Friday. However, I'm going to do what I can to be there. Unfortunately I can't promise anything today. I'm a solid Maybe.

For some reason I had this on my calendar for Friday, June 7. Did I have the wrong date or did the date change?

My bad. I'll still try to make it but today was a brutal day of catch up. The reality is I might not pull it off. One thing I know is anything can happen. Hope to see you guys there.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, I can't make it. We just moved on Friday and went in to contract on our old place yesterday with a 21 day escrow and I still have to move a few things out. It's killing me that I can't, adulting sucks!

Ug. Unfortunately I’m out. A project at work kinda imploded this afternoon and I need to focus on it - thus eliminating the Friday day off. As Jaime said - adulting sucks.
