Rausch Creek Trip Head Count 4/15/11-4/17/11

DoubleK · **Posted:** Fri Mar 18, 2011 7:53 pm

All right guys you know it, that time is finally here. RAUSCH TIME!

For those of you who don't know what Rausch Creek is, its an Off-Road park that is TOTALLY LEGAL. They own over 1300 acres of property with trails up the wazooooo!!!! It is located in Tremont PA, and is about a 3.5 to 4 hour drive from LI.

This trip is going to be in April on the 15th, 16th and 17th.

Depending on the weather we will be camping or staying in the Comfort Inn, a few miles away from Rausch Creek. There is a campground at the park. If you want more information here's the website: http://www.rc4x4.org/

I have a friend of mine that's going with 9 people from LI Urban Off-roaders and they are probably doing Blues and Blacks.

I will be leading you guys through the Greens and mayyyyyybbbbbeeeee easy Blues

I'm not exactly sure what time we will be leaving to head out, but i will arrange a meeting spot for all your guys out of NY to meet with us on the way over.

I think if you guys are gonna come you should definitely get a CB and hook it up because we need to communicate on the trails. Walkie talkies won't do because if some of us have walkies and some of us have CB's there is a communication block btw everyone and that would be really bad esp on the drive up and we need to stop at a rest stop.

It would also be a good idea to exchange names and numbers before hand and send each other PM's to help with communication.

If you have any private questions PM me whenever.

I hope you're all as excited as i am!! LETS GO !!!!!!

^^^^ that was from the other posts i posted. I am making this new post because i want to get a head count for this trip. So if you are attending, then write your name like this:

1. Rachael - Doublek - +4 Passengers - Hotel
2.

And so on and so forth. We will decide on the hotels and their costs. Here is what i found out:

The hotels that are 7 miles away from Rausch are:
Hampton inn - pine grove - $75 a night because i talked to the woman that works there and she boosted it down from $79 :/ not that good but its something.
The Colony lodge is s****y, dont even bother, and plus we all cant fit there...
The Econo lodge - pine grove - discounted to $60 a night with Rausch discount
the Comfort Inn - booked solid, no room left.
Rausch Creek Campground - free with reservation or first come first serve

All right guys you decide. Im personally debating on whether to camp or lodge. It really does depend on the weather. If its nice ill camp if its not ill prolly stay at the Hampton Inn. It seems really nice since the first nicest was booked. So yea if you know what you're doing, message me or just post it on here.

So lets begin.

Just booked a room at the Econolodge... I think I may have 3 passengers now as well. I can probably get out of work a couple hours early but I'm not sure about the rest of the crew so I may show up around 10ish. Is there a time on Saturday that we plan to meet up and start the runs? Hopefully not too early..

as i said above, i ahve booked two rooms already in the hampton inn, plus its a lot nicer and they might have breakfast :-)r

. if you are going to go with us around 7pm, then you can just come to the hotel with us. i mean why would you turn down a free room :BANANA:

we will meet up at Rausch around 830-9. trust me the earlier the better, plus the park opens at 830 i think or 9. so we all meet each other on a big meet and greet then head out to go wheeling allllll dayyyyyy loooonnnnnnggggggg :dizzy:

and i was thinking about the 4" JBA lift but i decided to buy a wrangler instead ;P its a 2010 sky blue wrangler. getting it from a friend so its going to be a hell of a lot cheaper. im going to build that as my official offroad rig. ill wheel libby in the mean time till i build this wrangler up. i havent exactly bought it yet bc i dont have the money right now, but im first on the list of buyers :twisted:

But are you def camping? bc i have 2 rooms at the hampton inn bc it might rain that day an i hear its going to be coldddddd!!

bunkermonkeycw · **Posted:** Fri Apr 01, 2011 8:28 am

Yeah, I took my front point off from last year (cruddy bullbar, would have bent to he|| but worked as a tow point)
Gotta just order the hooks :/

Hotel? Okkkkk, you almost sold me. How many are staying in them already?

WickedKJ · **Posted:** Sat Apr 02, 2011 11:28 pm
