Is that the weekend for the xmass party?

Thanks for the update.

Cool! I have an 80 series RC truck. My wife got for me when ours was in the shop for an extended period of time. I called it Therapy Truck. Frank

Looks like a great time. I would have loved to join you. Hopefully next time. We ended up heading up to Bishop area for a couple nights. Stayed at Kennedy Meadows one night (heavy bear activity), then up to Lake Sabrina for two nights, stopping...

Friends, I wanted to throw out the weekend of 12/12 for the Camp and Shoot this year. If there are no objections, maybe we can get it on the schedule. Let me know thoughts. Frank

Thanks for having us out on first run w the club! Epic views! And just let me know where to bring the scotch...

Some ideas were bounced around for more trips / themes. One was a scotch food pairing trip. I was thinking maybe we could find a place to do that in Sept? Or maybe bundle it with the Camp and Shoot in December? Frank

Wampa.. .(was Mudhorn, I am reserving that name for a future brown 60.), I sure have missed having a 60 since mine bit the dust in Pismo in 2017. Food pron! Breakfast was not bad at all. Bee Canyon to plink a bit. Getting ready to head...

Well we had a great weekend at one of the best views I have camped at locally. Wampa only lost 1 fastener (front body mount and puck) so I'll cut another and reinstall. I was able to adjust the AC amp and finally get the truck cool. The...

Let's figure out Saturday tomorrow morning when we have the group together. There is interest in Bee Canyon so I am going to bring my pistol, 22, and AR. If that's not everyone's cupotea we can figure out how to mix it up so we can get back...

I am hoping someone who knows the area has some suggestions. One thought, any up for hitting up Bee Canyon for some target shooting? Frank

I'd say farther from Thanksgiving probably better.

No worries, I know how it is.... We will be up in Coyote Flats 8/14 - 18. Frank

I may be heading up to the eastern Sierras this weekend. If that falls through for whatever reason I should be able to make it on this run for Saturday for the day. Sorry for the non-answer but everything is up in the air right now.

Can I get a quick roll call for those attending? Frank

I just googled and found numerous sites that say dispersed camping is allowed on Thomas Mountain road. We will be at a yellow post site with a fire ring. Frank

We had a successful prerun today. KTP lead the way up Thomas Mountain Rd. I found a few more issues with the 60 to iron out, nothing major (front shock bushings disintegrated, need to adjust the 4wd position, kicks itself out of 2WD when the...

So tomorrow I am going to meet Phulcrum at the 76 / 15 park and ride and head to Anza to meet KTP at the Dairy Queen. From there we will grab some lunch and lockdown where we will camp next weekend. If anyone is bored, feel free to tag along...

Amen to that. I say in my industry, best to fail hard and early. That's how to get on top of problems quickly, Frank

I should have, sorry. My biggest challenge was boredom waiting for the tow truck. Frank

You could've hollered, I live a mile away.

I'd love to join you guys on this trip. I've been up there before myself, about four years ago. It is really pretty up there. I'll bring my 14 year old if he's willing to miss those days of school, but he's pretty set on being there everyday. Let...

One more cool picture... We would likely do Friday to Sunday so 7/11-13. You are welcome to just do one night, whatever works best. Frank

Sweet, guessing we can catch up when you are back.

So, I am still planning to get up there Saturday or Sunday to map out a good spot but got tripped up a bit. This weekend I took my oldest to Mt. Laguna to go mountain biking with his friend and family. Wampa, the 60 has come a long way and was...
