Sounds like it would be a nice trip..but the price is a bit steep.....i think the people running these fundraisers must think we are all had big wallets to match the size of our vehicles.

For fundraisers like this, the term "high clearance vehicle" is usually used to distinguish between 'soft roaders' and proper full sized 4wds. Your Cruiser will be fine

Haven't done this particular trip before but previous lions trips have just been dirt/grass/gravel farm tracks.

It appears that this trip is back on for this Sunday (6/4/08). Same time, same place, same directions, same sponsor, same trip info as page one. I wno't be able to make it but for those who do, enjoy yourselves

.

Oh and this time around I won't be getting up early to find out if it has been postponed due to bad weather. If rain is of a concern there will be a postmonement notice on newstalk ZB.

Over and Out.
