Yankee Springs Fall Color Trail Ride 2023

Time for a colorful ride through Yankee Springs! The plan is to take our typical route at a slower pace to view the beautiful fall foliage. There will likely will be a few stopping points to get out and stretch your legs, check out other member's Jeeps, take pictures of the forest, or whatever else you may like to do. There isn't an end time for this event. If you need to leave while we're out on the trail, just radio over to our lead and we'll navigate you or take you out to the nearest main road to get you where you need to be. This event is set up to be a relaxing, fun, and scenic ride for everyone.

We will meet at the Merle Boes Yankee Springs Marathon Gas Station in the parking lot.
