jcb Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 Hi, I'm a bit new to this. What does MORG and Ranged Event mean? This sounds like a blast, been wanting to head to Big Sur for a while. Cheers. jcb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.BlueSky Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 Hi, I'm a bit new to this. What does MORG and Ranged Event mean? This sounds like a blast, been wanting to head to Big Sur for a while. Cheers. jcb The MoRG stands for "Monthly Offroad Gathering" as a club we try to get out and hit the trails on the first weekend of each month. Due to the 4th of July so we typically do the 2nd or third weekend in July. Theresa and I might be up for this one - haven't been down that way in a good while. Depends if El Chapomint comes down to help on the roof ; ). PaulD and jcb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertDingli Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 (edited) I plan to attend. Corral Hollow is one of my favourite places to camp. Yes, it’s near Bear Valley. Check out my friend’s D1 in this picture. Edited July 2, 2021 by RobertDingli Mr.BlueSky and El Chapomint 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirowsky Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) Just to be clear, we are talking about the Bear Valley skiing area near Alpine Lake off CA 4, correct? Other California Bear Valleys and Corral Hollows pop up with a map or web search that might be confusing. The area near Alpine Lake is an NCLRC favorite: lots of great trails at all levels of difficulty, and not too far from where most of us live. John M.

mirowsky Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 FYI: I expect to be there both days, and to camp out Saturday night. I am finally getting a set of all-terrain tires on my LR4 (Toyo's) -- big excitement for me. John M.

We are looking forward to our first MORG!If you are close to Cupertino, I also plan to leave at 7. Note that my D2 is only happy to a max speed of 65 mph and so you will have to be comfortable at a leisurely pace. Text me to organize a meeting point 4086370426 Make sure you have a radio tuned to 146.460. If you don’t have one, buy the cheapest Baofeng ham radio you can get on Amazon and I will show you how to set it up when we meet. For example Baofeng UV-5R Two Way Radio Dual Band 144-148/420-450Mhz Walkie Talkie 1800mAh Li-ion Battery(Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074XPB313/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_VRHTPD7EJV56DY62BY20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries on the 65mph top speed, will do me good to actually drive the limit for once... ;-) Will text you in a day or so to set up the rendezvous place.
