Four Peaks Pickup, AZ. Feb 9th 2008

  

SOAZ -> Four Peaks Pickup, AZ. Feb 9th 2008 (1/10/2008 2:58:27 PM)

Hi guys,
I hope you don't mind me posting this here. I wanted to respectfully invite the Hummer Forums to a Clean-up of the Four Peaks area. The place has gotten too trashed for me to stand. I went up looking for snow last Sunday, but found more trash than snow!! I'd love to see the Hummer owners represented out there.
Thanks a lot and I hope so see some of you out there.
Let me know if you have any questions,
Tim Huber [sm=type.gif]

With due respect that this needs to be done, there's another Feb 9th event that several AZ people have committed to. And yes, that group participates in trail cleanups too.[:D]

So... after letting it go for a while... I have to know... is there any kinda story to that FJ that was burned?  Was it vandalized after it broke?  Owner woke up and smelled the coffee?

Anything?

SOAZ -> RE: Four Peaks Pickup, AZ. Feb 9th 2008 (1/14/2008 6:22:01 PM)

Hard to say. The Sheriff is working on it. I'll try to call them and see if they can release any info.

Oakley has given some sun glasses to give away.

The Tacoma Territory, Xterra Owners Club, Copper state cruisers, and Virtual Jeep Club have stepped up to make it an official run of theirs!

The Copper State Cruisers have stepped up with a giant grill that can cook 80 burgers at a time! YIKES thats a lot of cow. mmmm!

Some folks are bringing a rake if they can. Its not a neccessity, but it will help with the shells and glass being picked up!

The Forest Service is going to bring a couple of Roll Off Dumpsters too!

Thanks to REI for some Clif bars for the volunteers! www.rei.com
