Pismo Beach Meet 7/31-8/2

[undeclaredpunker]

Dates:
July 31st 2009- August 2nd 2009

Its time for another Pismo meet, the last two have been tons of fun and we would love some new fresh faces out there to play around in the sand with us. Everybody is welcome 4x4 always works best but dont let that keep you 2wd guys and girls from coming (some one will tow you out)

I will be arriving friday around 4pm to set up camp we usually camp out around pole 12. To get to pole 12 you just go down the main beach till you get to pole 4 make a left up SAND HIGHWAY you end up going over a few dunes and pole 12 and our camp site is to the right hand side (You will receive a map once you pay to camp)
this is what the site looks like, it is far enough inland that its not too busy at night and you get a nice break from the wind at night if there is any


Cost of camping is $10 a night and that includes your day usage of the OHV park

For food usually we all kind of do our own thing... the "theme" is usually BBQ food (hotdogs)
Bring stuff to cook on if you dont plan on using the fire, although we never mind sharing if you forget something. Drinks "cold beverages" are all on you as well.

Bring WOOD please...it does get cold at night and there is nothing worst than not having enough wood, try to bring lots either from your home or you can pick up a few bundles at the gate or vons on your way in.

Laterns and flashlights are always good to bring as well.

Night runs: I would suggest only going out at night if you are experianced in offroading and have a good offroad lighting set up. it is very easy to fly off the side of a dune you didnt see at night, and you can always end up hitting the elusive "sand deer" there is plenty of wheeling to do in the day time and plenty of hanging out/ partying at night to be done.

Communication will be available VIA: CB and handheld walkie talkies

CB Channel: 31
Walkie talkie: 7

lastly i ask that if you have still cameras or video cameras please bring them and take lots of pics, I usually put together a video of the trips for everyone to enjoy and i can make better/ longer videos with the more footage we get

here are some videos to hold you guys over till we go out again

Who would do something like that! Crazy people... JK bud!

[undeclaredpunker]

cool, if anyone can post up some links in surrounding forums regarding this meet that would be awesome, i would love to have a big variety of toyotas out there! This will be the big test to see how my new (1987) 4runner will do out there im getting exited for this trip already

haha! I love that pic, and how my truck is grinning at the camera. Yea, only off road at night if you have experience, something that my experience of off roading at night has taught me.

[eccracer104]

^ Hahahaha. Your truck looks like the tag along friend. Everyone is doing their thing and you're posing for the camera.

[blackhawke88]

^ yup my truck as a natural-born camera whore...you can try to catch her off-guard, but at the last second it will turn around, pose, and look scandalous for that facebook moment

[kmillan]

I should be there

[slosurfer]

If I'm not up in Big Bear that weekend, I'll for sure meet you guys out there again.

Hopefully this time I won't have to drag a busted International Scout out to the pavement.

[awoit]

What is the expected cleaning maintenance afterwards? meaning ive from many pismo adventures (since ive never been myself) that "sand gets everywhere"

[eccracer104]

Clean the air filter and wash the truck ASAP! Make sure to wash the undercarriage very well. If you open your doors or windows you will also have sand on the inside.
