Hey Capt. Jim or Sputnik...
You ready for GSMTR???
We'll be there Sat. afternoon and will do some bunny runs on Sun. We will have four rigs this year that are rock ready and wanting to get in as many trails as possible. care to join up for a few during the week??? Are we still on for Lower 2 on Wed  ???
Jerry D.
For the Lower2 (and Upper 2, same day) run...
Eric, Luis, JD, Bill, Al, Jim, Cory(right?) and me. That's eight, should be a good number for a ride, and it looks like all the trucks are capable and ready.
Jerry D.

I will be in the area that week  . If a Wednesday run is in the works - make it official and lets get a sign up going with a start time and all. Hoping I won't break that much krap before then and can actually participate this year.

OK!!!
Eric, Luis, JD and myself will be there Saturday, May 12th, and staying at Crawfords. Lets plan on a Wednesday ride up Lower 2, how about a 10AM start time??? We can meet at the start of Lower 2 where it branches off of Trail 1.
Now only wanting to do Lower 2, all four in our group want to play on the E-Ticket trails from Monday on...
What other ones, what days, 
Jerry D.

Should be there the 11th in my buggied 60. I am game for lower 2 we gonna hit upper 2 afterwards. I'll have to make upper 2 with out taking out a window or door this time though.
Anyone want to take a stab at guardrail, helicopter pad, pinch rock?
I think a fun good run would be on slickrock.

Yes, yes, yes and yes.
In '04 I had to run the bypass at Guardrail and winch the bypass at heli-pad. Pinchrock gave me a few anxious moments, but Bill was an excellent spotter there.
Never been to slickrock.
The '40 has changed significantly since then and should be a better match for some of these trails.

Taking the 40. In the last 18-24 months it has underwent a complete change.
4" lift, 35" BFGs grooved, lockers front and rear, onboard air, rock sliders, heavy duty custom skidplate, rock lights...
I can't wait!

I'm game for Wednesday at 10 a.m. for Lower 2. Jerry - can you just keep editing your top post to show the rides and those who've confirmed - best way to keep the thread current and to make sure group doesn't get too big. Al - def. plan on upper 2 afterwards. I'm hoping to be patient this year and break less - but who am I kidding - I like getting awn it  .
As far as other days I always like to run slick rock 3 or more times - it's just so mellow and fun. School bus is always a fun run as a well as Helicopter. I'm considering gaurdrail to be the big one this year - gotta get it back for that broke axle at the top.
If anyone ever gets bored - find me on the river, I'm always up for a run 100% of the time. I also have a room at the big cabin closest to the east pay station - stop by if you see my mustard 40 .

I'm confirmed.......Confirmed casual observer, since I can't run with the big dogs.

Real slo-o-o-o-o-w. Worked great in Katemcy, should be good for Upper 2, we'll see. First gear now in 267:1 .
Been invited to the Glitter Gultch run by a friend in California, if only I can hit the Lotto...

You could still have some fun - trails 4, 5 and 6 are pretty hassle-free, as I recall...
