I would like to attend a JeepSkool event. How do I join in on the FUN?
Step 1 Register on the forum at http://www.JeepSkool.com . It's FREE!
Step 2 Members (Drivers) attend a Mandatory "Skool" Session. FREE day of event.
Step 3 Enjoy a JeepSkool event!
“Skool” will cover the property rules and basic recovery techniques.
“Skool” classes will also be held on separate days. 'Skool" class dates will be NON TRAIL RIDE DAYS. By PRE “SKOOLING“, you will have been "Skooled" and will be first out on the trails. Class dates and fees are posted on the forums.
"Skool" classes will also be held on the day of the JeepSkool event trail rides and is Mandatory for ALL DRIVERS to enter the property. Expect a two hour delay before hitting the trails on JeepSkool event days. Your one time "Skool" will be good for all of 2009.
We reserve the right to revoke this privilege at any time.
So to clarify…
You will have two choices to be "Skooled". And "Skool" is MANDATORY for all Drivers! You can attend the morning of the JeepSkool trail ride event. Or, you can be Pre-Skooled! If you attend a "Skool", you will be pre registered, and get to be one of the first out on the trails on JeepSkool trail ride event days. If you choose to go to "Skool" the morning of an event, expect a two hour delay before hitting the trails. This one skool will be good for all of 2009.
Can I attend JeepSkool in my stock 4wd vehicle or lightly modified daily driver?
YES! You do not need a monster 4x4 to enjoy the property. There are many trails/areas for new drivers to explore. Tow hooks/points and a proper tow strap are recommended. Many areas do require 31" tires or larger. Skilled divers are available to guide all JeepSkool attendee's.
Do I need a winch and CB radio in my truck?
No, however it is strongly recommended that these items become your first modification to your vehicle.
JeepSkool operates on CB channel 4. You will need a winch to go on some trails. We suggest that you ALWAYS stay with a fellow 4x4. Skilled divers are available to guide all JeepSkool attendee's.

While on a trail ride with others, the guy behind me is no longer there. what do I do?
