My new truck is not trail ready yet, but I may come out just to bum around Centralia.

well i mean i can try taking my Focus off road, i bet i can impress you with my driving

but that wouldn't be ideal...

yeah rite at least the most of the trails i was on up there a focus could drive on. hopefully we can find some better ones. well i will have a full jeep, maybe notlost, or tj can spare some room. dunno though

there's always the option of the roof rack and some bungee cords...

yeah why not? put my donated surco rack to the test

deal! i can get some great pictures from up there! but really, i'll try and see if NotLost has some space if BlackMagic isn't gonna make it back from WV in time. if BM does i'll probably be with him

sweet yes i agree great pics!! wat does BM drive jw. so wat time could you guys be ready to head out? we can pic a rendevous spot somewhere on the way but close to meet at then all travel but i was wondering when you guys can leave, i wanna try to leave early!

i can make him get up pretty early, but we are at least 2 hours south of Trails i think so an extremely early time is probably not an option. And he drives the lifted liberty, kinda hard to forget!

yeah a lifted liberty is not something you see everyday but good on him for being different(even though i cringe when i see the trail rated badge or renegade badge on a stock mall crawlin liberty or any other one of these newer "granny grocery getters" that just happen to have the word "jeep" on them but thats neither here nor there. i dint mean getting up there early but rendevousing(<-- a real word?) somewhere close possibly early where will BM and not lost be coming from? what town? if you know?

Even though I’m watching this thread, I haven’t received any notifications of any of these posts!?!? Anyway...

Regarding Roll-Cage & "his gig", I was just referring to the Urban Exploration element of the location. I’m pretty familiar with Shamokin to Shenandoah, so we’re good.

If anyone needs a ride, we can probably make room for at least one. If the kids come, we’ll take Paula’s XJ, otherwise we’ll take my TJ.

We don’t volunteer for anything on the last Sunday of the month in case we do a RC run with Mount Zion, so we can leave early. I also sent my email to everyone in a PM regarding the Feb 4 meeting.

ahh gotcha NL, i'll bring my good camera equipment then and a power invert er to charge my camera battery, as for early, how early do you want us to be there ballpark? let me know so i can give BM a call and see if he can do it.

well my wife and her mom in law if she comes are really into exploring the town so iam planning on trying to be up there around 8-9am i know thats early for some but as much as i am into checkin the town out i really wanna ride some trails too and explore them also! if anyone else is into gettin there that early to explore the town sweet! if not we can meet up with peeps in jeeps later on. would love to have others there to explore with also though, dont wanna go alone.
so notlost, you know the trails up there around centralia? i am into exploring new possibilities also!

would love to find some smoke or fire speaking of which, guys humor me and go to google maps, type in centralia PA it will take u to that map,you have to zoom in on the center one click, then from the center of the town where on the left is a yellow road thats says 61 follow that road but go right where it changes toa white road, its called big mine run road/SR 2004 it bends south hopefully your labels on the road are the same as mine, its labeled SR2004 going south along that road then it says big mine run road start to double click on the spot right in between mine and run to zoom in and tell me what you see to the left of the road? tell me thats not a fire. i saw another map somehwere not mapquest that showed the same orange area

not sure but that's probably not fire as from what i saw when i was there there was no open flame still. but there are other dangers... i've been to the mine area before, gotta be careful cause i found blasting equipment still intact there including a live blasting cap and detonator. NL, i'm not sure if BM can make it up for this one so let me know if you got a free spot. I can meet you guys at Centralia and then hop in somebody's ride if that sounds ok.

lol wow ur quick man must be staring at the screen like i am and just keep hitting the refresh button lol just joking, what is it then man? would love to explore that area also find some blasting caps sounds great

i'm not sure what it is, i'll take another look (and i get the emails, i get alerts on my phone) and yea it's a great area to wander around but don't expect to get a vehicle on some parts

i double checked, no idea what it is

Lol, nope, no open flame! If you watched my vids you did notice we recorded 170deg steam, though! That’s close enough for me – not to mention the carbon monoxide poisoning ;-)

I don’t have a problem with getting there early either. I’m hoping between me and RC, we’ll all see something new this trip! And yes, RC, we’ll make sure there’s room for at least one!

alright great, thanks!

Just looked at the pics from Centralia. Definitely looks like a fun trip. I'm down to go whenever you guys decide.

HEY GUYS!!! sorry. just caught up to all the plans. Feb 26 seems like a good time to go. I will definitely try to be there if I can get home from school that weekend..

I will be up for whereever anyone wants to rondevouz. And roll-cage ur welcome to ride with me.

JesusJeeper, to answer your question here is my rig...








IM REALLY GOING TO TRY TO MAKE IT!!!! I THINK ID HAVE A BLAST!!!!!

sweet man great to see some libertys gettin jeeped. seein more and more of it, which is cool, i use to hate the but the more i see them modded they are like a small 2door grand cherokee. cool well how about this: we meet at washington park in ashland between N 29th and S 25th street mapquest it, dunno exactly wat this par looks like, but should be able to meet there! then on to centralia to explore the actual town then on to trails for the rest of the day

What day are we talking? Sat the 25 or sun the 26? I messed up. the 25th is better for me but i might be able to do either day.

Got a time you want to meet?

Also, if you’re not sure about the park, there’s the school football field just a few feet further with parking along the street.
It’s located here:

40.78029,-76.356364

Ok, so it is on for Sun. Feb. 26. Meeting in the morning (I will have to meet you somewhere in Centralia, as I am coming in from northern NJ).

Are you planning on doing any wheeling around the Shamokin area? If so, I may or may not join in, depending on the trails (I am bone stock, unarmored, and brand new).
