I know someone on here can answer these questions for me!

This weekend i plan on going to URE, taking my jeep and a friend is bringing his xterra. Plan is to get there around four saturday, camp on trails over night, then get at it sunday for a little more then split by the afternoon that sunday.

Question 1) since we plan on being on the trails two days, do we buy the trail passes for both days when we get there? I'm probably going to buy a season pass but my friend will only be going this one time.

Question 2) Camping. Is camping on the trails a bad way to go? The only reason i didnt suggest a campsite was because we are all under 18. If i remember you cannot get a campsite under the age of 18? someone fill me in because i dont know about this too well. And i grew up camping and know how to take care of myself doing it, i aint no city boy. We are all 17 btw

Question 3) I saw a group of people going on another section of the board. So hopefully i see some people from nc4x4 but my friends xterra is stock and my xj is only lifted 3.5''....saying that we arent going hardcore. plus we are limited to recovery. No winches, just straps. Should we worry too much or will it be crowded enough that if we need a winch for any reason no one will mind giving us a hand?

Your friend can buy 2 day passes, one for each day, the first day you get there. They use a sharpie and write the date on it at the time you purchase it. Should be $10 for him, and $30 for you.

Camping along the trails is allowed. I'm really not sure about the underage thing. I'm afraid if you ask around too much, you might find the same rules for camping @Arrrowhead apply to primitive camping on the trails.

The weather is supposed to be dry this w/e...that is key. Your XJ will do fine, not sure about the driver (j/k:lol:). If it rains, there are a few spots that get real interesting. The xterra will just have to take it easy, be careful not to drag vital stuff over rocks. Keep your tires on the big rocks, don't straddle them. Chances are you'll run into someone who could help if the situation got bad, but its safest not to count on it.
 
Or come on out to Marion, enjoy the ECORS race on Saturday as a spectator and ride Sunday.
There will be tons of locals to meet and this is a rare opportunity to ride a trail system that is only open 2-3 times a year, URE will be there next week....

Just a thought
 
X2 the race!
