Registration has been moved back to Jan 10. It is a volunteer run operation so we are doing the best we can. I'm thinking Porcupin Rim would be a good run for us? It has it's difficult parts but not a lot of bushes to scratch the paint. 'Cause I know that's important to some of you.

scratching my paint? who cares! Just dont dent it.

 

[farinvail]

My worst dents have come while on the pavement. Tail gate, lift gate, passanger rear quarter, front fender(from a 5 year old with a mag light) I find the scratches help hide the dents.

What day are you looking at?

 

[farinvail]

I'm thinking Friday, but I'm waiting to hear back from Hants as Porcupine is not offered all the days.

I would defiantly be up for Porcupine. Great views. Would there potentially be an option to do Hell's as a group as well? As far as paint goes, I'm looking forward to the day that I can put "More Scratched than yours" in my signature line.

Base camp/HQ is Slickrock again..

CM potentially stupid newbie question. By Slickrock are you refering to "Slickrock Campground" in town or Sand Flats Recreation Area near the Slickrock Trail.

Slickrock Campground.

 

[nakman]

thanks, Travis. Slickrock Campground

 

[jonharis]

Thanks Travis. Driven by hundreds of times. Never stayed. Looks like a nice facility. Like that we can walk home from any bar in town.

You simply need to run Kane Creek one time and you can add it to your signature line. I came off the trail with deep scratches and the rear molding full of trees and nearly pulled off. Fun trail - There is one deep hole in the river - I had water over the hood onto the windshield as well. Got to use the snorkle for water not just clean air

Cane Kreek? When/where!?

Cane Kreek? When/where!?

I'll second that.

You have to watch your weather forecast when running Kane Creek.

Not Kane Creek - Actually Slick Rock Campground - but there is an LX470 in the video.

Kane Creek Fun in the dead heat of summer - not spring.

To Utahfj62. I ain't skerd.....Oh well scratch KC for CM.

EDIT: Due to post below, I'm back on!

 

[farinvail]

It was pretty tame the day we did Kane Creek. The trail gets canceled for the day at CM if there is rain in the forcast. Same with Cliffhanger.

 

[1loudLX]

where'd you find the extra midget?

 

[farinvail]

Belongs to my friend Fritz. Kid's named Ole. Can you tell he's from Minnesota?

 

[1loudLX]
