Thinking of opening up land to ride on..
 
Sooo just saw the thread about GWNP going to be closed down and was talking to my buddy earlier about getting the loader back to his property (160 acres) and opening the trails back up, He is down with this big time.
We would need some help cutting the trail back open and were thanking of making a club of whoever and whatever vechicles. He has a Bronco that he is finishing up with a 9 inch lift and 35's another guy with a 4" lift in a Wrangler. So it's not just a XJ thing, would anybody be willing to help open the trails with us???????:thumbsup:

What kind of waiver would you have people sign so that we would not be responsible?? Any other things we need to be aware of??:surrender:

That would be awesome. One thing to think of from what i have seen "outsiders" have a problem with would be creeks and streams if there are any because people downstream could be ticked and could possibly have a legit complaint to take to court. Also the local noise levels incase there are small towns near by. Hope everything works out and good luck!!

how close is culpeper to roanoke va? cause maybe by the time the trails are done ill have a jeep built ahahah

It's off the grid of small towns so that will not be a problem. There is a stream that is part of the trail that is open now. The place was logged a couple of years ago and the under brush is mostly briars that we have to open back up to get to the original trails. We used to have about 8 to 10 miles of trails but plan on making more. Roanoke is about a hour from Culp. but the land is 20 mins from Culp. so about 1hr 20 min.

Though about doing this a few years back with some family land but insurance was outragous. Get a lawyer to draw up a waiver but keep in mind if they are under 18 it's not binding, have to have a parent sign.

Sounds like a great idea to me! And put my name on the list for willing to help :thumbsup: Any place to wheel close to c-pep has my full support lol. If you pick the right date for trail work I could possibly round up a few other guys to come out too.

Sweet we are planning on getting the under brush taken care of while it's still dead from the cold weather. I will get a date and directions and PM ppl. It doesn't matter how many ppl come because we are getting it done either way but it would be nice to have some help.

Would you need insurance? We just wanted to make sure ppl drove at their own risk. I get the under 18 thing. Thanks man.

You need it just as any business needs it. No wavier is bulletproof and someone will eventually sue you (gotta love those jerks). That way you're covered and don't loose the land as well as your house, cars etc.

Me and my buddy were talking about the whole being sued thing. We just want to have some fun and get ppl over to help and ride. Planning on making some cool ****.
