This was my post at the 2A page following this event.

All I can say is �WOW!! �Well, I can say more, but that's what comes to mind when I think of the experience I just had.

Great People.
Great Flat Fenders.
Great Scenery.
Great Trails.
Great Chili.

I want to offer my sincere thanks to Mike, Ellen, and Steve for their hospitality. �They are incredibly humble�and claim the FCT is made possible by the participants. �And I appreciate this sediment, but I must disagree. �They open their hearts and home to a bunch of crazed Willys folks and do everything in their power to make the experience exciting, comfortable, and memorable. �Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

I will mimic what has already been stated numerous times. �This is an experience that must be had by all. �Trust me, you will never forget it.


Tim


Here is a link to the posts at the 2A page. �Lots of photos and videos.

Hi Lew,

Rachel and I are planning to be there on the 21st, 22nd, and 23rd. I'm still looking for a trailer, but I have two loaners available if I don't find one.  We are both looking forward to it.

Fall Colors Tour is Sept. 17-23rd.
The Friday ride will be of a nature that will allow you to "test" your rig and make sure it is running ok. �The Saturday ride is the big one! �We will ride all day but with many breaks to soak in the view and to eat.
Other rides early in the week and a final ride on Sunday morning to wrap it up.
You can camp in Mike and Ellen's yard with many other folks or stay at a local motel or B+B. �
For those that have trailer queens or just like to wax your rig and stare at it in the garage, don't worry, the rides are super fun but won't hurt your jeep.
Many have asked about how it runs at alltitude. �No worrys there mate! �They run great and don't have any issues. �No special jets or tune needed. �It's amazing how well they run. �Many different tunes on these rigs and they all do just fine. �
Some worry about having enough gas for a days ride. �No worries there either. �Last few years the ride on Saturday ran from 9 am to about 5pm with about 1 hour of road time and the rest trails. �I burned 5 gallons each time. �If you worry, strap in an extra jerry can of gas but you won't need it.
Our host is on the AlCan MVPA convoy with his electro willys. �You will find that he does a great job of setting up the rides. �He does work for the USFS after all. �We will have plenty of empty seats for those who can't get their jeep running in time. �I will bet that you will have it ready for the next event if you ride along on this one!
Please chime in if you plan to attend so we can have a rough Jeep/Head count.
