1062 miles for us.

Nope, no robbing of the Pot until the person shows up. You can give him your pot but mine stays until arrival.

Hard to the core.

I know I'm awfully late, but here's another suggestion along the Idaho suggestion, Killpecker dunes and steamboat mountain north of Rock Springs, WY., east of Farson, WY.

Look it up on google earth and explore, I haven't been there for decades, but it was neat place when I rode a CZ and a Husky. Be sure to turn on the pictures that people submit and look at them.

Probably too far to go for most.

Too Far Kinarfi for me. We have to be in Sun Valley, Id for the 4th of July. That is why we are so agreeable with Northern UT & ID locations. If not, with the future price of Diesel next summer we would not be going any further than So. Ut.

Thats what I am worried about.Gas is supposed to be around 4 bucks a gallon by then.Its already gone up .15 a gallon in the last couple weeks.

Do you want to start a poll Rocmoc? (1) Southern Utah (2)Idaho or? The gas price is going to determine a lot of peoples ability to participate so that really needs to be considered.

Just looked at a map of the western states and I can see that Wyoming is a bit more east than most would consider feasible. Guess I'll just have to hook up with someone already up there some day and go see some of my old play grounds one of these days.

Already voted, but south of Moab type southern Utah sounds good to me. Hanksville area, but where ever is fine.

I'm going to change my feeling about Idaho and go back to Hanksville, UT area. Looking at the weather for the last 3 years the average high was 90 degrees for middle of June. Also looking at the weather I think that March would be a good time to check it out. Still in the 60s daytime and 30s at night and little rain to flood us in. I'm going to plan on checking it out in March and anyone who wants to come can join in your welcome. I'm quite sure you Kinarfi will want to go. I've been wanting to go there for a long time anyway so if we don't use the site, I'm still going in March. If you remember my eariler post, the area is all canyon lands, trails are more old mining axcess trails and are not heavily traveled. In fact when I checked it in for about a mile or two in when coming back from blanding, there were no signe or tracks anywhere. It's sort of out in the middle of nowhere so there just isn't the local population to wear out the trails. Hanksville is fairly close for lodging so those like Cinda and George could have a place to stay. Besides Rocmoc has a hotel on wheels. We could run him off and convert his rig to group lodging..

Probably nice enough to sleep out on a cot and use Rocmocs Shower. :D:lol:

OK, Southern Utah is selected as the NEXT Jamboree site for June 2011. NOW where do we camp? What trails? I would prefer a campground with Wifi and Paiute needs hotel/motel nearby. HELP!

Reason is trying to evenly minimize fuel cost for the majority of people, temp & highest number of votes.

Please post links to sites with info.

Just a start. Somewhere in Southern Utah, maybe Hankesville if that is what people want.

I will go along with any of these areas.Like I said before my main concern was driving distance hopeing it would be within a 10-11 hour drive with the short time I have available but it seems like any of these areas would fall within that.Also like you mentioned rocmoc I dont want to spend the whole time on forest roads, it would be nice to have a choice with some more challenging trails to go on also.

Now that we have selected an area, Southern Utah, I don't think we need to jump to quickly select what trails to ride. I sujest that we all do what we can to review possible trails and that we decide on down th e road. I think we should set up a vote date on trails to ride for April 1, 2011. This gives those that want to physically check out trails by going and riding them a chance to do so. What do you think? Any sujestions should include weather expected for that time of year. Objective is to get cooler then in the past.

Lenny, Excellent plan. April Fools Day is The Trail selection day. Campground / campsite is important and being able to drive to trail head. Temp cool, we want to run the heater this year not the AC.

      I have a 2007 Joyner 1100 sand viper and  before it even get's to where the thermostat opens up the oil pressure get's so low I have to shut it down. What could fix this ? I thought about adding an oil cooler with fan, thicker oil, or removing the thermostat. Any advice?

      I bought a 2017 Stampede 900 last fall that was new, old stock with less than 5 hours on it thinking that I would be getting a relatively trouble free UTV as compared to buying a used Polaris or CanAm, or Honda, etc. It's been a little quirky, but reliable. What I thought was just a minor issue with this model, the difficulty in shifting between R, N, L, H, etc., was just a characteristic of this model is now a big problem. I had to climb two very steep trails to get to the upper meadow of our hunting property, which seemed to stress the UTV more than usual since I was carrying some lumber to work on a platform for a hunting blind, and when I went to shift into park, I felt something give and it would not shift out of low, but it did move up into high gear.  I couldn't get it to shift at all at that point and the shifter felt mushy for lack of a better word. I was able to get it down to the lodge and when I investigated, I discovered that the straight, metal tube portion of the shift cable had bent to almost 90 degrees (see pics). I'm positive that it had already had some deformation that had happened previously and it had the right amount of resistance to bend to the point where it was unusable. 
      I have two questions:
      1. I suspect that there must be some other issues that makes this UTV difficult to shift, and I'm wondering if this is a common problem and if someone could enlighten me on what could cause this to be difficult to shift?
      2. Have any of you had this happen and if so, how difficult is it to replace the shifter cable?
      Any other advice is welcome, this is the first UTV that I've ever owned, so I don't know much about working on these or maintaining them. I'm relatively capable when it comes to working on my own vehicles in general, and I'm not afraid to take things apart and get my hands dirty.
      Thanks in advance for any insight, I'll be traveling most the day so I won't get a chance to look at replies until this evening.

      Hi everyone and I hope that is not a too forward questions for us newbies. 
      My husband and I are ready (next Spring) to open our newly developed nudist campground in Iowa and we are now looking for interesting activities to host. 
      Don't worry we are not going to try and sell you a membership because as of 2 weeks ago all of our 50 campsites are sold out for the 2024 season. 
      It was my job to sell site and now that is complete i am looking for interesting actives host for weekend. 
      We have 300 acres of woods, grassland, swamps and 2 small ponds/lakes and dozens of miles of riding trails.
      we have gotten county approval for the complete 300 acres to be clothing optional. 
      We think we have a great spot for a weekend or several day ATV / mudder event. 
      Clothing would be optional for all participants and plenty of room for overnight camping and outdoor group showers. 
      Now we are looking to you pro  ATV riders to let us know if you think your group of people would fit in with ours. 
      Feel free to ask anything you would like to get a better idea of what we offer.

      Haven't posted in a while since solving the excessive cabin noise issue, so I thought I would share a few upgrades to my Sector... Realize that this is driven daily on the street, so some of the mods are to make it more streetworthy.

      Locking gas door.

      Rear view mirror.

      Modified windshield for better airflow in cabin.

      Lowered and modified headrest bar for improved rear view.  Tailgate protector.

      Folding armrests.

      Overhead utility rack.  Keeps the interior cooler and dryer, too!

      Folding rear seats.

      Dust cover and seat protector.
      If anyone wants links to the rear view mirror, seats, or arrests, let me know and I will post.  But know that everything requires some level of fabrication.  The utility rack was all custom built.  Cheers!
