Regarding food, we have always brough up whatever you wanted to eat; someone always had a propane grill.  We'll have a campfire if you want to cook on that.  Just pack your cooler w/ plenty of ice, freeze food if you are worried about it lasting, but my cooler keept food cold well beyond returning home.  If you need to throw your cooler on the trailer, there should be room, or my bed will have some room.

You will want food for each dinner, lunch (sandwich stuff works well, make them in the morn and pack in small cooler), and breakfast.  bring any snacks as there isn't much in the area (the reaturaunt on the campground is officially boycotted by our club).

If any one has questions about what works well for food, just PM me.

Who has a grill?

Yes, there will be picnic tables available. I'll have to do my food shopping Thursday night when I get back from New York. I'm planning on stuff I can throw on marshmallow sticks like brats for my dinners and pb&j for lunch.

I would tell you to drop it off, but right now I am swamped with getting my Jeep back together, and getting my Brother In Laws Jeep ready.  I havn't looked at a JK spare tire mount, but if they are made similair to the TJ and YJ ones, I'm not sure how well they would do after being cut and welded.  The metal is pretty thin and uses the geometry of the design for strength.  You could always add more braces to it though, or it may be thicker steel then what Jeep has used in the past.  If I can get caught up with my work, I'll give you a call.  Do you have any links to show how it needs to be cut and re-welded?

Any thought into rush shipping one of these:

With quadratech you could use normal shiping if it is in their PA warehouse.

push comes to shove, your spare could be strapped down in my bed.  You will either have to get it to my by fri morn or strap it to your roof till you get to the campground.  PM me and let me know. (or drop it off w/ kirk and his trailer before he drops it at my house)

I'm planning on dropping the trailer off some time Thursday, not sure of the time yet.

Thats perfect for me; as I won't be home untill Wed night. 

Kevin, If you want to drop the tire off at my pace ahead of time, just put it next to my tires; i'll ensure it gets to Mohawk (just pack fix-a-flat)
