GSMTR 2022 Details

 

General Rules and Information

 

Please use low headlight beams only when entering the camping area!! Drive slowly, make no dust and watch for children and dogs. Observe the park’s 15 MPH speed limit on Park Road and respect quiet time after 11:00 pm.

 

Please avoid driving in the mud or grass inside the campground.

 

All times listed are Eastern Time (ET)

 

Guided Trail Rides

 

We will have easy rides and moderate rides for the guided trail ride options. Easy rides are for newer drivers or for those wanting to ride stock friendly trails and do some “sight-seeing” rather than test their rigs on the rocks. Moderate rides will typically require a rear locker (can be substituted with driver skill and/or winch), winch, sliders, and other vehicle modifications. The easy ride will line up at the blue flag. The moderate ride will line up at the red flag.

 

Guided Ride Procedures

 

  • Please ensure you sign up for a ride at the pavilion the day before so we can coordinate enough trail leaders.
  • Guided Trail Rides will form up at 9:30 am for a drivers meeting and will depart from the pavilion at 10:00 am Monday – Friday.
  • Our trail leaders are experienced wheelers, so if you are new or inexperienced they will help spot you through any rough spots, and if needed will help winching, etc.
  • Please show up with a full tank of fuel, Windrock Park ride passes, and enough food and drinks for the entire day as these are all day rides. Fuel is available in Oliver Springs or at the Windrock Park General Store which is a 10 minute ride (one way) from camp.
  • Check-in/safety inspection is required for all vehicles and is available during check in from 9:00 am to 10:00 am and 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm Monday through Friday.
