Default XJ Beach and Sand Club.

So there are the folks whow rock climb, the ones ruttin in the mud the ones crossing rivers and the ones bouncing through the snow. I know many people do a mixed variety of all off road type stuff seems the two main things are rocks and mud though.

SO I just want to put up a quick thread for those of us who primarily run around in the sand. Beach, desert or other sandy areas.

So got your rig sandy or bogged down on the beach? Post up your pictures, stories, sand driving/reading tips, or any other info you would like to put up here about sandy/beach running fun!

(pics of my Jeep on the beach coming soon)

I'll see if i can post some pics of my cherokee at the beaches in AZ. I know an Arizona beach sounds like an oxymoron but most of our lakes and rivers have offroad areas next to them, and when its 118 out a trip to the lake in the jeep is nice if you dont have a boat.

The second pic is on the far side of the island on a low tide, definently my favorite spot to hang out in the summer, lots of good times down there, espceially on the beach behind west coast training and the island on low tide, i really hope no dirt bags screw it up, it's great to have such a cool spot open, it's the only place you can drive on the Columbia river beaches that i have found.

Great pics guys. And yes, Arizona beaches does sound like an oxymoron I LOL'd when I read that.

I had plans on getting some beach pictures of my own to stick up here because I started the thread but the weather was not cooperating and I ended up toting my brother around all day doing things he needed to get done. Going to try again over the next few days.
