With camp at BFE, Lockhart is less handy?
Well. We could drive up Kane Creek (...or Pritchett...
)... just saying 
I like the tech-then BFE idea, I'd think it'd be crowded though - everybody with a half-broken truck will be there - in contrast to camp at Slickrock, where the half-broken crowd usually settles for a beer and a wrench...
As I said, Strike Ravine in/around BFE is not worth it; Lower Helldorado is closed/doesn't exist anymore; the other two 'easier' trails are Green Day and Minor Threat. Everything else (from what little I know...), I'll be spectating...
Upper Helldorado is cool to watch, particularly with trucks that initially don't fit...
I'd be cool with a day in those canyons and check out some of the arches. These require a day permit from the NP, right?
That said, we punt on the idea of driving in the Maze for this time? We'd probably have to reserve camp sites there, and this may be too short notice anyway...
I'd be up for a day-dash on White Rim;
doesn't like the sounnd of that. I'll drive in the back though, so I won't hold up anyone

Yep, one way or another entertainment will be had?
Some do, some don't, so we try to get the permit, if not available run one of the others?
Yep, it's looking like a dozen rigs, so 3 per camp site, no way we are getting 4 permits together at this late date. See post #30, we should beat Romer for the next years proposed date and get permits while we are there?
I'd be up for a day-dash on White Rim;
Well the

So we are free to run whatever the
we want on Sat?
;pThe way I figure it we can run White Rim, come out Long Canyon and meet
at Zak's in time for the last supper?
,,, Maybe

if I have to wait in the bar, I'd be stone drunk by the time you get there eventually 
of course, I could just leave in time and be ahead all the time

Friday: Tip-toe (sorta as a scouting run for me...) or BFE (or both...since we're out there anyways)
Saturday: White Rim?

Sounds good.
My buddies from CA are meeting me there and signed up for the same trails as I did, just a few minutes ago. They just finished registering and there is 1 spot left for Golden Spike on Thursday. Thought I'd let you guys know.
sounds like spike on thursday is all csc and affiliates (from BC!) lead and gunned by the Rising Sun
Didn't y'all plan a off-highway trip up there last year? Still planned?
Yup. Details yet to be determined. There's been 3-4 trail days before we got to Moab each of the last 2 years.
Unfortunately, I can't do the whole pre-Moab trip, which is awesome.
I will be there for Cruise Moab, though. I am barely signing up so there is not much left for trails. I would be very interested in joining up for a CSC trip any day....
Thanks

...and despite me being there, I've never joined you. How in the world do you guys get that much time off? Ugh!

If I miss a whole week from work, I'd get fired or silently demoted to oblivion.

You don't get even a week of vacation time? Please share the work field, so the younger ones around here can make better career choices!
Don't ever, and I mean EVER work for a software company.
