feb. 16th 19282 Read rd Copemish, MI. 49625 about 2,000 people last year and 1,200 trucks
this place has stuff for all rigs a rock garden some nasty man made holes a bunch of new twisty off camber trails lots of fields to blast thru plus lots of idiots to watch they usually have a bon fire & concession stand and a raffle (team kamakazi won a high lift jack last year)
they made a couple changes to the layout to include a spectator area close to the main "BOWL"lots of people play in & they are keeping non flaged cars out of the wheelin area we were there for the xmas tree burning party and had a blast we ran all the trails & snow made em tough( we used our winches several times)
a few of us are going to camp(in our school bus mud truck hauler) on fri nite & sat nite
you do need to have a 6 ft(or taller ) orange flag mounted to the ft of your rig
(they sell em there too)
here are some links to checkout (pics)

Hey there,
Ya don't havta just watch. There is more to the Dog Party then sitting there watching the 'fools in the bowl".............fire up your rig and ride around the trails a bit too. They are making the party a little better every outing. Just don't go out in the woods alone. Lots of gremlins out there! ...................and of course ya might need a strap from a buddy.
Hope to see ya's there

Just watched it....I was surprised that they show the different shots of the people drinking alcohol. Not that they where driving vehicles in the pic, just suprised the news showed that.
