The
Vertical Excursions club was formed to allow Jeep owners to get together and truly experience Jeep ownership. Jeep vehicles are some of the most capable off-road vehicles in the world. Club members embrace this fact and pursue challenges that allow them to
experience these capabilities first hand.
Club meetings are held once a month to discuss upcoming events and swap stories about events gone by. Meetings are currently scheduled on the
second Thursday of the month . Trail rides are typically held on the following Sunday.
Who can join?
Any
Jeep owner with an interest in four wheel recreation is eligible for membership. No modifications are required for membership. We have many members with stock or near stock Jeeps, and a stock Jeep is a very capable vehicle. Each new potential member must find a current member to "sponsor" them before they can join.
What if I've never been off-highway?
No problem. The club has many members, all with different levels of experience. Some are just learning the basics of four-wheeling, while others have been doing it for years. Special care is taken on every trail ride to advise newcomers and teach some basic four-wheeling.
Do I need a heavily modified Jeep?
No, a stock Jeep is a very capable vehicle. Most trails offer a variety of terrain for Jeeps of all types. We do use a
trail rating system to classify trail difficulty, so if a trail may be considered too difficult, you will be able to judge by this scale. If you have any doubts or questions, just ask another club member.
