Totally down for this. Had great fun last year getting tow strapped up that muddy section. We'll see if I learned anything in the past year!

Well, I'm not a very good note taker . I don't have any times in my meeting notes. I seem to remember the leave time is 9:00 am from Savemart.

 

[chicago]

Ill be there!
IIRC, that is what was decided.
Hope its not too muddy!

I'm in. There's a thread on Reno4x4 about a group that went out there last weekend.

I'll be going, I might hitch a ride or take the 60, the future is unclear on that point.

Hey Dan,

I have a buddy who has dibs on my passenger seat, but if he bails, you're more than welcome to it. It was great fun having you along last year.

Thanks, it was fun tracking mud into your rig knowing I didn't have to clean it up


If I don't take the FJ60 I'll probably hitch a ride with Chicago.

Any snow reports from the Dayton area?
I was thinking about how this lil storm we had might have affected the run...

Little more messy I'm sure. I was down near Carson yesterday and it looked like only a smattering of snow in the hills there. Don't know what it did on the trail, but I'd imagine not much. Still expecting mud in the same stretch of trail as last year where Shawn got to do a tow strap demo on my rig.

sand and mud sometimes require the use of more POWER! As my Dad use to put it
"Never say whoa in the mud."

 

[ksheffield]

Wheel and learn.

 

[ksheffield]

[DiscoveryXD]

I can't make this one either... pinching pennies right now after buying my new shocks, and I still need to by new bump stops and limiting straps.

 

[rusty_tlc]

I'll be there with bells on.
