    We will be providing a vehicle count for EDC Search and Rescue. This is mainly a sitting around and chatting event, plus the chance to do some side runs during the day. The count lasts from about 10AM to 4PM. We can plan to meet at EDH Starbucks at 830, and leave by 9AM.



    Who is in for Road Patrol #1?

    We're in, but I doubt we'll be at the Starbucks meeting place.

    I need to check to see if there are tow points on the Subaru. Otherwise I'll have to bring the truck.

    My Jeep is down until I get it all ready for the Hammers. I'm rebuilding all the flex joints, getting the panhard rebuilt, scraping and painting, refilling the diffs, and possibly reinforcing the panhard mount. Until it's done, my Jeep will be in various stages of disrepair.

    does anyone have the gps coords for the place we get the ranger stuff on the patrol? or maybe how many miles from the last dam crossing?

    Me either. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't make it that far anyway. There could be a lot of snow up there. It's been spitting snow off an on here for the last three days.

    how in the heck do u find this stuff....

    anyway, i have a friend who x-countrys and i was thinking i would take him on the run and drop him off at the dam and pick him up later. theres supposed to be a bunch of trails in the area closed to ohv's so i just thought i would give him an idea of where we would be in case he wanted to meet up with us later instead of picking him up.

    So you're going to take a friend out in the woods, kick him out of the truck and tell him try to find me. Sounds like an extreme game of hide and seek. 😂

    I can bring propane and a heater if I take my truck, but not if I take the jeep.

    Is the road patrol event happening rain/snow or shine? It looks like the forecast is for more rain and snow through Sunday.
