So who has the longest distance to travel this year to get to Winterfest?
Last year it was 370 miles to Badlands and this year we have about 630 miles to Flat Nasty. We will be trailering the jeep there.

It's ~345 miles from my house to Jadwin, MO. It'll probably take 7 hours to drive and $165 to tow there and back.

Les

BTW: It's about 40 miles from home to The Badlands.
