    I worked 54 hours this week so far, and i go in tomorrow. But I have sat sun off normally.

    If i read the tread, i think you were posing a question. I sure hope you dont need a weekend to go in loon and out Wentworth unless your looking for some mountain camping and a couple of free days to fish, or do something else up there.

    It's an easy day run. Even for close to stock rigs.

    You'll be more than fine for a day run here. The harder parts have by passes as well so you can choose how difficult youd like.

    Is anyone else interested in this run? I think its one week from Saturday.

    So going in the Wentworth springs side? Never went in that way from Georgetown.

    The plan is to go in the loon lake side and out Wentworth. Why are you thinking Wentworth starting? I couldn't find a reference in my post.

    FYI, It was the "meeting in Georgetown at 8:30" that made me think that we would be going in at Wentworth. I think it'll be a fun run this way, different is good.

    Sorry, I'm going to need to bail out on this run. Ronie and I are going to watch a friend play in the Guns and Hoses game.

    Definitely in for the 2/1 "snow run".

    Yeah, I really want to be getting out but have some work to do on the rig. Hopefully after this next weekend I'll be able to do my upgrades/mods during the week ... to a greater or lesser degree.

    That and the job hunt continues. Not working is a real drain on resources.

    I’m gonna try to make this.
    why not go both ways? In @ Loon to Wentworth and then turn around?

    Hi Chris. Depending on timing your suggestion is possible. It depends on experience and drive time. My hope is that this is a fun run for everyone. It looks like about 5 rigs are coming in addition to what you see here. Should be a really good group!

    Still haven't figured out going or not...will have to leave around 6:30 to get the Gtown by 8:30...I hate early mornings 😛
    seems the trail is in good shape with a little ice on Wentworth springs near Ice house Rd.

    at least I got the truck back together today 😛 had to change body mounts

    Thanks to everyone who made the loop such a successful run today! 8 rigs - 5 JKUs, a taco, an LJ, and a Sami. No major damage or breakage. The ice was a challenge which made for some scares but nothing serious for our group.

    The ice caused a super duty to slide in to a tree, resulting in life flight for the passenger. We saw the truck afterwards. Not a pretty sight. I think we saw 6 toyotas, 1 jeep and 1 side by side on the trail.
