2026 isn't too far away, nor is Black Sheep Week. Let's get going!

I'm hoping we can get some early commitments to ensure there are sufficient numbers to make this trip a success.

Dates: Sunday, April 5, 2026 to Friday, April 10, 2026
Typically the last day of wheeling is Friday, with the last people departing on Saturday.
Park trails and overview: https://caltopo.com/m/63T1, https://stateparks.utah.gov/parks/sand-hollow/, https://www.winter4x4jamboree.com/Trails-Home.cfm
More trail info: https://winter4x4jamboree.com/Trails-Home.cfm

The Outpost is the same as the last few years; I already made my AirBnB reservation: https://www.google.com/maps/@37.1354142,-113.3722021,15.29z?hl=en

GMRS will be again the radio standard. We will start on Channel 17.

Tentative Schedule

  • Sunday: TBD
  • Monday: TBD
  • Tuesday: TBD Catered dinner at Outpost
  • Wednesday: TBD
  • Thursday: TBD
  • Friday: TBD
Days in the Hurricane OHV area requires the use of a dune safety flag. For trail ratings in the park, we will be focusing on 4s and 5s for stock H3s. 6s start to get tough (straps may be needed), 7s get rough. A great feature in the park is there are often bypasses, and you can drive any path that you need to.

Area GPS files

Fees, please: $30 to cover Tuesday catered (TBD) dinner.

Attendee List

Best guess and confirmed is below. I will start cleaning up as we get confirmations.

I'm not in this photo and I don't like it.
I probably won't be in next year's photo either. Haven't been able to do a damn thing on the Alpha this year.

Time to get those hands dirty Paul. Change the oil and pack your bag. Time to put some dirt under those tires.

Just took advantage of the Barnes 4wd 20% off black Friday sale to get links for the 1 ton axles going in the JK. That would be a nice one to bring but I won't be home to work on it anytime soon.

Alright . . . I can't make it this year, I'm sorry. I know Jason and Rascole still want to go wheeling, so please figure out if you want to stay in Hurricane or explore something different.
