Hey GFC community. I’m wanting to feel out if there’s interest in a family friendly meet-up sometime this summer? I’d love to meet others and share camping tips and builds, let the kiddos run around with some other little wild ones. Non families welcome too of course, as long as you don’t mind the chaos! Interest level will influence location significantly but I’d like to find somewhere with hiking/biking from camp and definitely some dirt to get there (stock friendly). Cheers

Crazy uncles welcome! I’ve got one of my own who may join us.
Also, would really like to meet other GFC moms/women, I don’t think I’ve met another one yet face to face!

This sounds pretty rad! We’ve met quite a few women and families here at install and out at events/ meetups who love their GFC, so hopefully there’s a good turnout!

Awesome. I’m in Arvada and just got my GFC yesterday! I have two boys (2 & 5). Planning to get them out quite a bit this summer!

@mjphoto welcome to the family gfc club!
Everyone else- thinking we should do something squarly in summer to ensure best weather and mostly likely family attendance (totally respect not all families camp year round, depends on the kiddo). Maybe late July? I really dont have a strong preference and we generally do camp year round
Bringing this back up to the top…

I am not savvy enough to make a poll…how do folks feel about mid Aug to time with the meteor shower? How far are you all wanting to travel? I’ve been falling in love with Steamboat area more and more but thats a long drive for anyone more in South Colorado.
A vote for steamboat! Haha…. I may be a bit biased though!
A meteor shower you say? I do have access to 70 acres of land on top of a mountain with no trees and unfettered views for that!

@OverlandKyle well obviously thats sounds amazing! If not your property maybe you know another big spot. One of the struggles I have in organzing this is planning for a group site. We are the type of folks who squirl down random forest roads until we find a spot…nothing ever planned ha! DM me if you want to coordinate more…also interested to learn more about purchasing property out there…
And yes, annual meteor shower usually peaks about Aug 13. EarthSky | Perseid meteor shower: All you need to know in 2023
I pick up my GFC June 16 in MT. Would love to hook up!!
