It's a Jeep Thing...

Jeepin' on the Hoodraiser Trail
The hottest weekend of the spring saw 100 Jeeps from across the United States and from British Columbia make their way to Tillamook, Oregon for the 2016 Jeep Jamboree.  This was the second year Jeep Jamboree selected the Tillamook State Forest as one of its many excursion locations.  With a trail option for every skill level, this two day event showcased the world class 4-Wheel Drive trails in the Tillamook State Forest.

Jeep Jamboree organizers donated over 400 hours of volunteer time in the Tillamook State Forest OHV areas prior to this event.  Trail scouts worked long hours doing trail brushing, trail maintenance and garbage clean-up. 

The event also supported Tillamook County 4-H youth by recruiting them to cook breakfast and by participating in their donation carwash held each evening at the Tillamook County Fairground staging area.
 
This boulder on Firebreak Five made for a great photo op.
