The Flag Pole ride is stock Jeep friendly (except for scratches), family friendly, and a dog friendly outing. This is the perfect run for new Jeepers, stock Jeeps, or anyone that just wants to get out and meet some new friends. This ride tends to be an all day ride.
Flagpole has a little of everything including steep climbs, water, mud, rocks, and awesome scenic views. We will all meet for lunch at Meadow Knob which has awesome views for great photo ops.
We will ensure everyone has a lot of fun and learns a lot about off-roading if you're a newbie.
We will be meeting at the Food Maxx International Market parking lot 924 W Market Street, Harrisonburg, VA at 9AM. Drivers meeting will be held at 9:30AM.
All non-members are required to have a waiver filled out for each person in their jeep. It can be found here:
http://novajeepers.net/NVJA_Documents/NVJA_waiver_of_liability.pdfPlease print and fill out prior to arrival and hand to me...............I'll collect them prior to the driver's meeting.
If we have several groups of Jeeps, we may possibly need experienced Jeepers to lead a group (in order to be a lead you must have knowledge of the Flagpole trails and what is off limits), be the mid of a group, or be the tail of a group.
Required equipment for the trail ride includes:
A 4WD vehicle in good working order (with a full tank of gas)
Tow points, front and rear
Full size spare tire and whatever you need to change it on the trail (jack, lug wrench, wheel lock key, etc.)
Bring your lunch and drinks. We will all eat lunch together.
The following are nice to have but not necessary:
CB Radio (necessary for group leads, mid, and tail)
Recovery equipment
A blanket or towel to sit on while disconnecting
Whatever you need to air down
Whatever you need to air up.........or you can drive to a local gas station to air up
Heavy duty zip ties (to hold the sway bar out of the way when disconnected)
Hand tools
A folding chair to sit on while eating lunch
Sunscreen and bug spray
TP in case you need to use the "restroom" on the trails
