Great news! I am really interested in hearing what the confirmed dates of the event are going to be. I had blocked out one week on my schedule based on some info that I heard from one person, then another person recently posted a scan of a flyer on another forum that indicated the event was...

Oh, for those of you who like to plan things in advance.... 10th Annual Graves Mountain Military Vehicle and Vintage 4x4 Trail Rides! Labor Day Weekend August 30-September 3, 2018

It's been a while, but I just got around to putting up all the photos that I have on Flickr... They are located at: https://www.flickr.com/photos/124394777@N06/collections/72157690622523745/ I'm always looking for more, so if you have some that I don't have that you would like to share...post...

If I hadn't of gotten a text message two days ago, I would have missed it as well... I'd tell you to come grab one of my other trucks, but everything other than my XM813 is in some state of repair, prep for paint, or at the farm in Virginia...

I'm taking my '71 XM813, I know of three other folks from on here who are participating... Who else can make it??

I likely will miss someone, so I apologize for doing so…but here goes: I just wanted to thank everyone who attended this year, especially since I apparently forgot to order enough sunshine and dry weather to last the weekend… I especially want to thank Chuck for the t-shirt design and for...

In case folks get the wrong idea... She did get out and about a lot and even had visitors to her domain...

You must be talking about this photo... :)

Just a teaser set of photos from the weekend to show that Adam not only got his tubes, but that he and John made their annual visit to the Graves' shop...

Just a couple of the local residents keeping an eye out for everyone's arrival....

Time for two really big reminders! We do NOT have gas/fuel at the Syria Mercantile... Closest place to put go juice in your MV is in Madison, so make sure that you fill up the tanks and jerry cans on the way in... We do NOT have cell phone coverage in the area (ok, we do up on top of the...

****, really hate to hear that....

Here's a photo that was taken last weekend while doing some trail clearing... The event is getting closer and closer... ;) ...

Still available, kids are ok to ride. The Lodge has a stable with horses that provides guided rides, usually an hour each, around the farm property. If you want longer rides, that can be arranged as well... You sign up for the rides at the Lodge office. I know that one of the guys who attends...

WELCOME! (From Raleigh where I currently live, and from Lynchburg and Syria, VA, where I grew up and still call home...) I am very biased, but it is a GREAT time...with a very good group of people! You don't have to bring the truck to attend and have a good time... You could do as...

Something for you to look forward to this year.. :)

Yep, it basically is a plotter that has a knife blade in lieu of a pen...and a slick software package to allow one to do graphic design or to import images or designs and convert them to a format that the plotter understands. I can use rolls of vinyl (yep, self adhesive on a backing) up t0 30"...

Had some time last night, so I fired up the vinyl cutter and put together a bunch of signs to try to help folks navigate the trails... Look for these, and more, when you follow Steve around the first time you go out on a trail, and for later on when you go out in smaller groups during the...

So, I think everyone has covered things pretty well, but since Eliteweapons is the only one so far (that I noticed) who mentioned rain... The only time that I have had an issue with stopping one of my deuces or five tons has been when braking hard in the rain with NDTs...then the lack of...
