Brittania mine back country exploration aug 26 (4x4)
 
so this was discussed earlier in the year and it got some attention, short notice of sorts, but August 26 (sunday) is the day

gonna be a couple jeeps from squamish going up and anyone is welcome to come see some hidden old mine stuff behind brittania beach.

see http://www.revscene.net/forums/66387...ost-towns.html for more info and pictures

you will need a 4x4 of some sorts, 2wd will not cut it. the road is not in bad shape, but there are enough steep hills with loose rocks to discourage 2wd trucks or any cars from coming. With that said any stock 4x4 truck or suv will make it, no lift needed.

there will be empty seats in the jeeps if people want to meet at furrey creek (starting point) but hopefully a few more trucks will show interest from here!

As interest is gathered i'll make times and locations known, but as it sits, sunday the 26th and furrey creek are the starting point

4wd check,
but how much ground clearance do you need? I don't have skid plates.

I'll bring my air compressor from my cruze and get a plug kit

Doubl3_H 08-19-2012 07:47 PM

anyone have an extra seat?

I wanna tag along but I dont think my family vehicle forester will cut it.

T4RAWR 08-19-2012 09:15 PM

forester should make it theoretically

murd0c 08-19-2012 10:16 PM

european 08-20-2012 07:50 AM

4x4 meet?!?!?! I wanna go! but I do not have a 4x4 :(
I wanna go explore with you guys :(

T4RAWR 08-20-2012 09:25 AM

i would be able to come after the 27th. maybe i'll catch you guys on the next trail run.

nabs 08-20-2012 10:07 AM

i only have 4 x 2 :okay:

1990TSI 08-20-2012 11:35 AM

so by thursday or friday we should have a sign up list and see who has seats available and decide what time is best to go.

1990TSI 08-23-2012 11:23 AM

sign up time!

1. 1990tsi +1
2. lifted cherokee +1

z3german 08-23-2012 12:08 PM

awe man sounds so fun, I wish i had a 4x4 :okay:

1990TSI 08-25-2012 04:06 PM

so we'll meet at 10:30 in brittania, right by the mountain woman resturaunt and the general store

theres now 3 or 4 trucks coming from squamish plus you guys.

look for a blue cherokee, red cherokee and most likely a black and red ranger that looks like it just came back from the Rubicon trail (it did)

my numbers 604 892 4426 and we'll probably wait until 11 until we go.

there will be a few empty seats available but I can't confirm any more than 2.

see you there
