Corpus Christi Wheelers

Hey now that I have a jeep again I really need to test it's articulation, can't make it to katemcy this weekend because unfortunately I have a large close knit family and we support eachother. Kenny and others have claimed a decent wheeling spot near aransas pass. Post up your favorite past or present place to wheel and let me know what your schedule allows. I work mon-fri 8-6 so any evening wheeling is fine with me. I can't be the only Jeeper in corpus who's down for a little after work wheelin...

there is a fairly nice spot outside of Portland, good climbing, and there are a couple of us here in town that are always willing for a little evening romp around. It is sorta trashy. a bunch of people go out there and shoot at crap and wind up just leaving their trash. Also some local auto shops dump their tires there, just a heads up. But if there is any mud it becomes hella fun. Hit me up 361 633 9004.

Sounds good, a jf member is headin to port A for the 4th of July I told him I thought there might be a place near aransas pass. But if you could show it to me sometime that would be great, even better to get a small group together for a planned day off or evening like you said. When's good for you?

I am sure gilly_as will be up for it, he loves getting stuck in the mud! jk I do think he does go there often. ...for me I only go there when someone needs to be recue. No big fan of mud.

Can someone give me a latitude and longitude point? A n intersection? Road name?

Its like less than a mile from the ferry. If your headed towards the ferry it will be on your right. A little cut people have made through to access it. no intersection, no road name. I could take you right to it, just cant explain how to get to it. I had it marked on my GPS but the first time I was out there with GCP, well it wasnt very pretty and I was topless, needles to say my GPS no longer works. Im headed down there for a day in a couple of weeks. If you havnt found it Ill show you. If you have found it ill meet you there for some wheeling. Its an awsome spot.

Sounds good, just itchin real bad for some unpaved road

There is a trail that I've been wanting to test out on the island that i found out a long time ago but never got around to actually testing it out.
I started a thread asking about it but no one, to my knowledge has been down it.

All I need is a rear recovery point and I'm good, super tired today, what about tomorow? Between 6 & dark thirty?

The area by the ferry is pretty good.

Does anyone want to try and get together this week for a drink OR maybe a little trail ride nearby?

Should be down there monday noonish, staying the night. My son is coming down and would probably like to see what the jeep can do. Maybe a little brown and root in the evening.

I know there is a mud puddle around here somewhere! Who found one and when do yall wanna go?!

A buddy and myself are goin on a mud hunt, anyone else interested?

Wait until tomorrow and you all won't have to hunt for them!

It looks like there will only be scattered thunderstorms in Corpus???? Irritating. Anyway, brown and Root, if you have not been is alot of fun when dry. If its muddy, I would tread very lightly. That place will swallow your jeep whole. Ask Andy (Gilly_as), he has a nice first hand acount. It took 3 jeeps and full size pick up to pull him out. So i would hold off on that one. The Volcano that I mentioned above is a good climbing spot, lots of mud if it rains, and generally alot of grip for easy recovery. I'm putting a set of 4.88 gears in this next weekend so my rig is out for at least 500 miles. But i can go, and put you in contact with a lot of guys that will ride along and spot because i know where the dangerously deep holes are. Just shoot me a text, 3616339004.

My buddys dove lease or my dove lease is probably gonna be the spot, winch and snatch strap ready!
