I asked him to change it to skip the cabins this year. I want to go see some mines or something different.
Half of it is the same, other half is brand new. There is only so many ways out there besides taking fire roads lol. I am making some adjustments per daves request

Dave is brining a crap load of wood I know that. I’ll see you for the second half of the game.

Last time we got a little bit of a late start. How does 9:00 am at short stop (95 and McCulloch) sound?

I usually run checkers 1 for radio I am assuming everyone has that too.

I have the gps files I can email for everyone. Doug I’ll load yours like we talked about

9:00 sounds good. R we taking the same trail there and back ?
I’ll take the gps file [email protected]

Yeah, low 40’s without wind chill isn’t gonna be t-shirt weather. I may pass the “submission/approval” process with the wife for a windshield / heated seats.
We did Pilot Rock above Silverwood last weekend. Got a little lost and didn’t get back until dusk. It was pretty damn cold. Wife has a 12 volt electric blanket that she said worked great.

Sorry, stupid question time.
I’ve to the following on my list: Beer, Snacks (priorities), linens, octane booster, extra fuel, tools, spare,
Anything I’m missing? We’ve only done short, day trips. When we went from boating in Blythe/Needles to Havasu we didn’t have an anchor and nearly enough fenders. Just trying to avoid any oh shit moments.

Hi everyone! I’m Heather, Clearmax’s wife and River Diva’s PIC :). This is what the plan is for food. We are headed to Costco on Wednesday for the food for the trip. One night will be burgers and dogs and one night will be carne asada night. Also going to get some beans, rice, chips and salsa from La Tolteca in Azusa. We will also be getting food for breakfast one morning and food for lunch. We’ll front the bill and then just divide it up this weekend. Just BYOB ;)

That sounds good. I want to drop some stuff off for the trailer.
R we going to be gassed up or fill up at the edge of town. Also can we make it on one tank? Can am x3
My plan was to meet at the edge of town at the “short stop” gas station. If we go the long way there (which is what I want to do) it will be 100 miles until we get gas again. I would suggest for everyone to bring fuel so we can do that.
Also can u send me the gps file
Do I have your email?

In fact if you have a gps I’ll email everyone the gpx file when I am at work tomorrow.

Send me your email if you want the file

I don’t think so just to much to do before I go dark to work

It’s a lot of prep work for a ride this far out and back. We have been getting the car ready, trailer ready and spending more money than we should on this deal. It was one of the most fun trips I had been on last year though and we are really looking forward to it.

Started our trip with a quick stop in Vegas first. Day started out a bit rough. Leaking water pump on the Silverado called for a plan B. Little work, lotta holiday party and an early Friday morning coming up.

Hi Everyone, Heather here. All the food has been purchased and we are ready to roll! The total was 400 even for everything. That includes 2 dinners, lunch on Saturday and Sunday, breakfast one morning (I think we're having breakfast at the restaurant there one morning) and snacks. I also got paper plates and plasticware. We can just divide the 400 between everyone once we all get out there. Remember, BYOB. And huge shout out to WMC for getting all the carne asada and marinating it for us. Hopefully he'll be willing to bbq it for us too! Looking forward to a fun weekend with some awesome people
