SOA National Scramble: June 20-23, 2013 -- Harlan, KY

The SOA board prides itself on making sure there's something for anyone of any level and we have everything from scenic to break-your-junk-fo-sho :D

We've actually have had such cool rides (last year we did a very backroads trip to Branson, MO and another trip to the original Bass Pro shop) that a lot of the more built rigs (me included) go on the scenic rides. We already have scouted out more than enough to keep the scenic crowd busy in Harlan and expect plenty of takers on those rides. The area around Harlan is just incredibly beautiful.

The park where the trail riding is does have easy trails, mainly they're the connectors that let you get to all the other trails, so there should be easier stuff for the easy crowd in the park too and people like to take those to areas where they can watch the big rigs play to see what they're all about first-hand.

Oh, and your Scrambler will be capable of more than you realize ;) Hopefully you'll find that out too :thumbsup:

Just a question for those of you who have been to a Scrambler and those planning this years, do all the scrambler activities require the Jeep to be set up for off roading? My 81 that I am desperately trying to finish so that I can go to the Scramble is a stock vehicle and I don't think I would survive any hard core obstacles. I guess I just don't want to make the trip down there if I am going to be sitting on the sidelines the whole time.

Absolutely not. We have several "Scenic Trails" that have been / are going to be pre-run. There will be plenty to do for the stockers and near stockers. No worries. You will have plenty of company.
 
Thanks everyone for the input. Makes me feel better about an 800 mile trip if I know I will have things to do once I get there. Now all I have to do is finish getting my 8 all back together (once she finishes getting straightened out at the frame shop), make lodging reservations and register for the event. Well, maybe not in that order....
 
I'm in:wave:

Made reservations at Mount Aire, check in Wednesday, June 19, check out on Monday:thumbsup:

See y'all there:thumbsup::wave:

What color Scrambler?:eek:

Most probable, from 1-4:

1) Red
2) Faded Green
3) Tan
4) Shiny Green

Most probably Red, slim chance of faded Green, haven't even looked at Tan in a year (will be ready for Sand Blast '13:fingerscrossed:), shiny green is stock, while still fun, I need to do some minor work to it before its cross country ready:crazy:

75% Red, with a 25% chance of faded green:rotfl::thumbsup::wave:

Don't worry. You won't be the only one hitting the lower level trails. I was thinking of installing a winch on my scrambler to pull me over the parking barriers at the local ice cream shop :rotfl:
