I’m scheduled to attend the Jeep Adventure Academy in Coal Mountain, PA on October 1st. Does anyone know how to contact JAA to see if it is still occurring? I emailed them but the auto reply is that it may take another business day to get a response. There are flash flood warnings and several inches of rain forecasted. I don’t want to miss it, but it would be nice to know before I start the 4 hour drive.

thanks all

I just did the JAA at AOAA today. Great people and a really good time. There were some challenging spots but nothing crazy. If you have good AT’s or MT’s you shouldn’t have any trouble.

If it hasn’t changed since the inaugural event I attended a couple years ago, it’s specifically designed for stock jeeps and inexperienced drivers. They want people to know what these things are capable of, and slightly push our limits, but they don’t want you to have a bad experience.

that is exactly it - such a good time and a good learning experience, especially with the usage of all of the off road goodies that come with our jeeps. I wouldn’t take the class twice, unless my wife wants to take it someday, but I recommend it if you aren’t a seasoned off roader. I definitely want to go to a Jeep jamboree someday!

A few pics from yesterday. I was the photographer so none of my truck except for the overall Jeep line up - mine is front left.

the staff was great, and I really enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend for non seasoned off roaders.
