I can't wait! For the trip, not for you to flip =) It'd be cool to watch and we'd need a video camera for that.... but you'd better not get hurt. :wink:

Ya, as long as we get it on video and on muliti shot on the digital, it could be worth it. Wow, a roll on the Luge. We may be able to sell the video for enough money to get you a Jeep that comes with fenders :wink:

Leaving at 7 from my place to allow Chris to get here from work. Tell Jonathan (Silversides), we're leaving by 6.
Then we're meeting FB at where again? ___________


Think of anything else important that won't be a standard pack?

do you think I could make it to the cabins in 2wheel drive? Im pretty sure I could run the coke trail in 2 (ran it stock and didnt have problems)

Im contemplating driving up there if I wouldnt need the strap every 10 feet

While no one loves a Jeep Parade more than me, I'll leave it up to other drivers.

Cokes, no problem, only one larger shelf part.
J probably remembers better since he got to the cabin with his stock rock dragging Frontier.
But even Mineral Mtn road in off Cottonwood to Box seemed worse on the way to WP and Ajax.

When are you guys leaving to go in there.

Just thinking, you are all heading to my side of town and if I could meet you somewhere it would be nice to meet for a minute and on top of that I could give Michael a check for the stickers I ordered. I can meet about anywhere or I can head out to Cottonwood or Mineral Mountian entrance to meet there and I know you won't have a lot of time for yakking, just a short hello and thanks for all you are!!

If it won't work out, please do not hesitate to say so, i do understand!!!

I will say a few prayers fo ya'lls safe journey this weekend.

Bill

We can do Starbucks at Stapley and the 60…

I will bring some wood. I also have a stove if we need it.

There is also a Strarbucks and a McDonalds at Ellsworth and Basline (one block off 60. It is easy off and back on and there is gas and stuff available there too. Could be a last gas up before heading out.

Just a thought

Everyone please remember to pack light, it is always a pain in the but trying to cram your gear in and pulling it all out every time. I am going to pull my back seat for more space. Just try to bring only what you need and chris bring your yellow cave light.

I really do not see any need for you to bring your Jeep, it would only mean that you would be driving by yourself and what would be the point. I just dont want to slow things down if it is not necessary.

Fatbob we will see you at your Starbucks. I got a 32:21 drive time to that local. Hope to see you at 7:45 fo sho.

J, whatya say we just make your current residence stageing area A. That way leave behind cars don't pile up in our lot. 7 is still go time (not meet time).

AZL, don't know how much time we'll have in the way for a meet and greet. I could probably get the stickers to you then though if you wanted.

Mike, You tell me what time you are meeting for sure at Starbucks and which one and I will be there,won't take much of your time either, i know how it feels to have people give you a late start on the trail!!! Get me the info and I will work around your schedule!

skatchkins wrote:Oh, and Chris will have to drive out to our meeting place with Bobert.

Ain't no way 6 peoples and stuff fitting in two Jeeps.

If you guys need to ditch a car you could park it in one of my spots at the condo. My sister is out of town for the weekend so I have two spots open.

Who all is driving on this trip? Im just trying to figure out who is riding with whom...

Jared - Driver

Dana - Driver

Bob - Driver

Chris - Rider

Michael - Rider

Jen - Rider

Jonathan - Rider


Dana's Jeep will be the 3 seater.
J will have no rear seat and at least the netting to keep in packed items.
