Anyone interested in a Mid-July in and out week day run to buck island and back? There is a group from Michigan that I'd like to see if we could meet up and have lunch with at buck.

Buck from Loon is an easy run in under 4 hours, especially on a weekday.

Any interest?

We should be back off the trail by 5 or 6.

Would this be an extreme fast run? Would rigs still in the build up phase on 33's make it?

I suggest we do a later, slower paced run. Or, you should hit up the new Rubicon Round-up run dates unless you are comfortable with a good pace.

The reason I say this is that I'll only have one day off in the week so I plan to run in to that group I discussed earlier and then run back out to be home before 8 or so. It will be up to you if you feel comfortable with the pace, but I believe worst case the run would be to Buck Island and back in a day, plus meeting their group for lunch.

Some people can make Buck Island in a few hours while others take two days to get there. The bigger question is what you feel comfortable with. I will have the normal support devices with me, but plan to run from loon to buck island in under 4 hours.

I don't know the dates yet, but it's probably around July 18th.

Looks like a July 19th date maybe best. I'll confirm this date over the weekend and post back Monday.

Pending approval, it looks like the 18th is now the only day which will work for me. I'll know more later in the week.

Sorry, I've been in Denver the past few days. It looks like Kevin, John and myself will head up for a day run to the Rubicon. We may meet up with a pair of rigs from Michigan that I've spoken with, but it's not a big deal if we don't see them.

Ok, let's do 830 in Georgetown on Monday. We'll head up once all three of us are there and I've grabbed my breakfast sandwiches!

Where are you planning on camping? what time Sun? I was thinking of driving up Sun. afternoon to camp at Wentworth then hit the trail in the morning.

then again...I'm thinking of heading to Deer Valley just to see what's up with that trail. The last report on Pirate said there were a bunch of trees blocking things 😀

Fun day! We found Jeff camping at Buck. He followed us for a while and then turned around when it got too tight. We went all the way through. Some snow patches at the top but nothing difficult.

John shouldn't be too far behind me. He can get the spammer.

I'll post some pics soon.
