A few of us from OAUSA will be camping out in Calico the weekend of March 27th-29th. Were just getting organized so chime in if you have any suggestions. There will be a pretty good mix of rigs from Jeeps to Pinzgauers. Hope you can come, it should be a good time. Thanks.

Kinda of yes, kinda no, I guess so. http://www.myjeeprocks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13577 Since there is no Cali Cleanup MyJeepRocks.com and some others it seems are doing there own clean up in conjunction with their 6th annual IDTT run and myself and some other friends are going to join them. At least until we get sick of the stinkeye. LOL

Man would love to make it out Scott. Don't think it will work though. :bang:


Hadn't heard the Clean Up isn't happening. That is pretty lame, especially since the locals who benefitted most from it are the ones that made last year so difficult. :rolleyes:
 
Right now my calendar is open for that date, I might be able to make it.

Not sure what happened but The Calico Clean project is a great project. I personally had a lot less fun last year than the year before for several reasons. Our group got totally hosed on the clean up site. We got to clean up the field east of Peggy Sue's on the other side of the freeway from Calico. That sucked! :crybaby: Worse than that was having the BBQ and raffle all the way back in town in Barstow and finally not allowing us to camp as a group on the dry lake was ridiculous. I travel that area regularly and when the wind howls and the sandstorms start it doesn't matter how many people are on the lake, it's gonna blow sand, period. Sad as it sounds we did a really good job out there the first few year so maybe a year off and the junk will pile up and make it more challenging again. :rolleyes:

Tare it would be good to see you again, it's been too long! Gas is cheap at the Outlet Center in Hinkley, I paid 1.99 for premium a few weeks ago at the Flying J. Just trying to get you a hall pass. ;)
 
Bummer I am not going to be able to make it. The wife’s birthday is on Tuesday. I am going to sick around house watch the kids and doing honey dos. Have fun, would have been a blast to make it out with you guys.:crybaby:

Golf, installation of new CB antenna on the LC - rerouting the coax down the PS, installation of a ham radio in the Miata. No scouts...that was last weekend!
It's also year end at work. Been working way to late...I need some rest and a long weekend of wheeling, fun and relaxing as it will be ain't rest. :rolleyes:

The plan is that there is no plan, unless you want to join the MJR guys and do their runs. We're just gonna play it by ear.

So, if by chance we do decide to run Odessa and Doran, how doable is it in an 80 without sliders? I have no problems running difficult trails, but I'm not into needless carnage just to say I ran such and such trail.

I have never been up there. What other challenges or interesting things are there (beside the "ghost town" :rolleyes: )
