yeah that would be a good idea

Wish I could've made it too. I know I had something going on then. Hopefully the chance will crop up again.

Which reminds me.... Fall meet-up anyone? I'm living out in Pittsburgh now though, so I would appreciate something near the middle of the state so that it is less than a 3.5 hour drive. I also have my hitch on so I finally have a rear recovery point! Now just to do the rest of my mods....

up coming event

I know that I am new and not in the know of everything around here but I will going to an off-road event September 26-27 in Eau Claire, PA. it is about 1 hour 45 minutes north of Pittsburgh where I live. I went in august but could not take my patriot on the stocker trail because my FD I does not have front and rear tow hooks or a CB radio but my brother in laws TJ has that and over 8" lift for the moderate trail ride, so I still had fun. This is a legit meeting with sponsors and a lot of fun. the website for info is
outbackoffroadadventure. until rocky-road "meets the demand for the lift" I will be the winch cable runner but all in fun.

Hopefully I can be there for the next one.

Anyone want to do a winter run? Maybe just see if you can make it to my place on top of the mountain, lol. At least you know I can make it in mine.

That's a GREAT collection of Patriots! Most we've had off-road at once is 4. Congrats!

My place is about 3.5 hours from Pittsburgh, north central PA. Attractions near by are, Ski Denton, the PA Lumber Museum, Pine Creek Gorge or the Grand Canyon of PA, and if you're into Astronomy Cherry Springs State park is a designated Dark Skies Park, just about the only one in the eastern US.

Let me know if some of you want to meet after the Holidays. I'm always there anyway.

That would make a fun weekend trip. I've always wanted to see the Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania and I could bring up my 4" tasco telescope for a little night sky fun too. I'd be down for something like that myself. Maybe Gaze and I can caravan from the philly area, pick up terasec where 80 meets the NE extension-476 (provided he's more towards NYC then mid state). Have a fuel mileage contest heading there, winner get's free lunch or dinner or something.

I'm a couple miles east of Coudersport along route 6, and then just a couple miles north of 6.

I'll add a few links for the local stuff, I need to find some Jeep trails in the area, I know there have to be some.

Cherry Springs

They hold many star parties there in the summer, I think the big one is the Black Forest Star Party.

Grand Canyon (I think there might be a Jeep trail into the canyon, but not sure about winter use)

In the summer you can use the bike trail through the canyon, or walk it, or you can float Pine Creek through it too.

If you cross country ski, there are trail all around, and you might even be able to ski the trail in the canyon. If you have a snowmobile, bring it too.

I'm only 26 hours from Coudersport (that sounds dirty), is there a prize for furthest drive?
