General info, please remember to support our sponsors!


Grand Slam West is a self-organized get-together of Grand Cherokee owners that want to use their Jeeps as they were intended—to drive public trails on public lands.  Grand Slam West is self-organized for fun. Participation is free and at our own risks. Damage to your vehicle and bodily injuries are possible and is strictly each driver’s responsibility. Since this is an informal gathering of internet friends, there are no fees and there is no insurance or services provided by any individual, group, or organization. It is also a good idea to have a road service assistance plan, i.e. AAA Plus or equivalent. In prior years we had one vehicle roll-over, a broken drive shaft, broken axle, blown radiator, several flat tires and plenty of scratches, dings, and dents. Repairs are the sole and exclusive responsibility of the vehicle owners (but many participants and organizers have a LOT of experience fixing stuff—we can usually get you at LEAST back to Moab using trail fixes).

 

Participants are required to register in advance.  Due to BLM regulations GSW is limited to 50 Grand Cherokee’s.  Registration is a 3 step process:

          1. Register Here (online as soon as possible)

          2. Mail registration form to the organizers: 

          3. Final check-in at Grand Slam West Meet & Greet (or early before the trail rides)

 

IMPORTANT CHANGE FROM 2007 will continue to 2008:

 

In past Grand Slams we relied on drivers to determine which trails were appropriate for themselves and their rigs.  This year we are restricting the trails you can register for based on the capabilities of your rig.  Some drivers were overly optimistic about their rig’s abilities which caused a lot of work for the trail leaders and lengthened the trail time.  Please be realistic about your rigs capabilities and your capabilities when signing up for the trails.  Also, if you haven't trail tested new upgrades on your Grand Cherokee, please sign up for an easier trail on Friday, then do a Nut-n-Bolt check Friday night before running a harder trail.
