Excerpt from 2007

In any case, it was a a good run with a couple of challenging rock gardens to motor through. Hope you guys had fun too!

the club run is scheduled for next weekend, july 28-29

I'm gonna try and wait for the actual run this year. I haven't heard much chatter, who's going?

I won't be able to make it this year. My normal reason/excuse - I'm on-call. 😥

I don't think I'm going this year.

I used to wheel a lot. . .

I'll be at cubscout camp round 2 with my oldest, assuming they get the fires out by then.

Closed Mondays.

I don't want everyone to reschedule on my behalf if the scheduled weekend works out best for the majority, but if we could postpone it for a week I could go. I'm on-call from 3:00 pm Friday 7/25 until 3:00 pm Friday 8/1.

It has nothing to do with scheduling. Like I said earlier, with gas prices so high, I'm being choosey about the runs I make this Summer. I'll probably just do the Iron Man run and a Barrett run. I'll also do several rescue missions if Rob and Justin keep washing their Jeeps wink Mostly, I'll be saving the money for the Hammers. That's going to cost a bunch this year.

That's some funny stuff George! I doubt I'll be going either.

It looks like this run is in serious jeopardy, I wouldn't mind pushing it back a week if it means we could get a couple more people to go.

The only hitch I see is that pushing it back one week would mean 3 back to back runs:

Triple Trail Trek
Sierra Trek Winch Hill Support
Dusy Run

The Triple Trail Trek is a great run with beautiful views. You can get through the trails without lockers, it's a nice run for the more mild rigs, or for those who've built their rigs and want some moderate trails to play on.

Yeah, that might be a bit much.

I'm sort of planning to go. I was planning to skip 2/3 of the triple portion and camp at Deer Valley.

I'd still also like to figure out a time for a Pardoe's run.

I do not plan to make Triple Trail at this point. I am planning on the Fordyce trip, and Dusy the following week.

Looks like this is turning into a Deer Valley run with a possible campout on Friday or Saturday night before the run.

Anybody up for a day trip?

I think this all should be club manditory for all rigs. I like the tree air fresheners, but we can vote on it.

Larry and I were talking about trying to squeeze in a run over to Slickrock while we were in the area. Any thoughts?

Sounds like George and Mark (FJ) are interested in Deer Valley. Anyone know how to get ahold of Mark? Does he use the board?

Here are my plans.

Friday-
Head up and camp on Deer Valley

Saturday
Run the back half of Deer Valley, and Slickrock. Camp near Slickrock.

Sunday
Head home. Maybe come through Deer Valley on the back way.

From the looks of the profile, I think his forum name is "msanesi".

if cub scout camp gets cancelled, I might make this, and I'd be bringing my son with me.

I'll need to workout how to get all my camping gear in the jeep with a back seat in.
