George Washington National Forest
Off Camber Crawlers trip to
Meadow Knob & Flagpole Knob
Attendees:
OCC Members:
Bryan and Matthew Folts in a 1987 Wrangler YJ (Virginia)
Patrick Delaney in a 1999 Cherokee XJ (?)
Doug and Robin Masnick in a 1993 4Runner (Honey Badger)
Guests:
Robert Barlow & Taylor Rowland in a 2012 Wrangler JK (Silvia)
Jason and Katie Blackwell in a 1999 Wrangler TJ (Bessie)
Everyone arrived at the Sheetz in Harrisonburg between 7:30 (Patrick like to
be early) and 9:30. We had a short drivers meeting and headed to the trails.
Union Springs was our entry point to FR85. We stopped to air down, remove
doors (Jason and Patrick), and fold the windshield (Bryan) eriacta 100mg tablets. After heading up
the long climb, we took another quick break after the switchbacks, then
headed on to the muddy area. Doug took movies of the dirty fun, and others
took pictures. From there we headed down to the stair step rocks. Again,
Doug took movies. We went down and some went back up the rocks. Onward to
the steep climb with the rocks at the top. Taylor got worried when Robert
got close to the tree at the top, but all made it up. We passed a JK on the
trail as we got to the bigger rock that Jason did drive down. Took a couple
pics of the rock house near there and headed to Meadow Knob for lunch. After
eating our lunches and throwing the Frisbee we headed on. Along the ridges
were many small mud puddles to splash in, and several climbs with larger
rocks and loose rocks to navigate. Along one of these uphill sections we
came upon a group going the opposite way. After a quick greet we had to
climb up the side of the trail where the rocks were even looser. There was a
group doing some Ham radio stuff at Flagpole Knob. Doug stopped to talk to a
guy driving an FJ40. Nice rig. We then continued to the end of the trail,
but stopped for one more movie splash in a larger puddle. Some of us aired
up at the trail end, then we all drove back to Sheetz to finish airing up,
fueling up, and to say good byes. It was a beautiful day to be out side
wheeling!
