Price is not that bad , we went last year and had more fun than the Mudfest.
16 miles of trails and we only did 11 of it and took 6 hours to do just that.

This event is ALWAYS fun!  We take our time on the trails tho and don't try to race thru and it's great.  However, last time we didn't get out until 5:30 A.M.!  It was a MESS out there (only did HALF of the trail)!  Don't bring a Rhino or any buggy like that and BE SURE to have a 4WD bike!

I'll be there also and yes, you are required to wear a helmet but after you pass the starting line and get out a way you can take it off

Just remember to bring LOTS of water cause they have no running water on the premise, but there are several ponds at the entrance to wash down the bike.
For those of you who have never been there you can only ride the staging area till the course opens at 7:00pm or so.
They have a few small trails on the north side of the lot and a small canal to test your swamp skills in.
Last year the lot was very muddy and caused some overheat problem's with the bikes that have radiators mounted in the frame.

If it rains again it will turn to a soggy mess!
If you don't want to deal with the muddy back lot park up by the members camp area.

The ponds are really deep and no way to ride in them but good enuff to park bike a few feet in them to wash them down.
