2010 TSJM Poll

Here are a few places we are thinking about having the TSJM this year, I've included the websites for the parks below.

It not on the poll but what about satan's playground http://sp-orv.com/

Barnwell mountain has my vote

I friggin love Barnwell and voted for it. I would be cool with Hidden Falls as well. I just don't think that BVORR is big enough for a weekend run.

Not familiar with Rock Creek...

...I'd like to check out Barnwell but Hidden Falls also sounds cool...

I think you can take Brazos vally off the list. I don't think they can accomodate the amount of rigs that come to this event.

Hiden Falls has my vote..

Crap.....

The new Katemcy... they will be open in Febuary

The new Katemcy is my vote. Need to add to the poll

I also think you should take Brazos Valley off. Would probably be traffic jams with this amount of rigs

If going by the poll- Barnwell would be my choice. That place is huge, and enough trails to keep everyone busy.

i really think K2 would be a mistake, no one knows what it looks like, it is fairly small (400ac) and it may not have anything worth doing for the less built jeeps. along with the fact that the park will have been in existance for only a couple of months at that point, the infastructure may not be in place for a large event.
i believe the tsjm should have lots to do for all types of rigs....

i also believe rock creek and brazos valley should not be considerd due to their size and lack of trail to keep a large event busy all weekend.....although bvorr ,i'm sure would bend over backwards for us and would be quite convenient for the houston and waco chapters


in the end barnwell mtn would probably be the best, nice facilitys, well marked trails, with maps.....an event pavilion. rv hookups and GREAT campsites.......although it is a haul for the S.A. crowd.......

i kinda doubt the h-town crowd is down for a 400+ mile drive for a weekend wheeling trip..........we do it often enough




i would like to add shiloh ridge to the mix also

Rules at Satan's playground states you have to have at least one locker to wheel their park......if we many people will not be able to go.

I'm just going to follow the crowd as I have only been to HF's

I'm down for shiloh ridge to, i'm just waiting for crux to ad it to the poll

I think we should leave the TSJM to parks some of us have first hand knowledge off. Not sure whom of us have been to Satan's Playground, but that might be a place we need to go to on a regular weekend of wheeling.

And as was stated above, it might be more advanced for most of the rigs we have.

I voted for Gilmer...

Also how about general muds? I know how much geo LOVES mud

haha I am sure he would be up for that trip mud or no mud 45 min from the House! Oh I'd be willing to bet he'd be down lol if it wasn't for the fact that the park is only 700 acres and on any given weekend there are about 400 4 wheelers there clogging up the trails, gettin drink, driving like wild things. Oh yes and might I add the death toll up there seems to rise every month.


I vote Gilmer

Don't ruin this debate with facts. It is almost like watching congress and the health care debate.

nope you are seeing just fine! But you really need to go read my posts in the other thread about this LOL

It's Facts Facts and more Facts LOL

Sorry to ruin the party but I had a few phone calls over the weekend about it all and I guess I was voted to speak up lol

How about the TSJM in the Austrailian outback. Great wheelin, and almost the same distance.........or maybe the moon (large air tanks to feed the hungry engines)

sorry couldn't help it

Naw- you weren't voted to speak up. But you do a fine job of it anyway

Barnwell is the place! It's huge, has well marked trails, infrastructure in place, trails levels from 2 to 5 (did I mention "well marked trails"). It is well worth the drive!

Well Marked trails?!? I totally disagree. I have gotten lost there and spent hours cruising around on boring trails trying to find my way out. And there is no mud at Gilmer either! Plus the trails are rly tight and "scratchy." The only reason I go to Gilmer is if there are cool peeps to go with, not for the trails.

Tight and scratchy? You must have been following some idiots if you got lost out there LOL.
