Alright so as we approach this coming weekend we need to organize the caravan. It appears the total trip for the Triangle crowd is about 5.5 hours and we will be departing no later than 6:15am in the morning out of RTP. We will be meeting the Triad crowd at the location shown below:
Triad-Triangle Meeting Location
EXIT 170 WESTBOUND I-40
It appears it will take us a little over 2 hours and 20 minutes to arrive at above destination and from there we will have another 3 hours and 20 minutes putting us at the final destination around 11:30/11:45am.
We need to make sure to have cut off times in place and one individual responsible for contacting those not their 10 minutes before departure of each location as not to get off schedule.
Also, Tommy Sutton has offered his home in sylva as a location to drop trailers and trucks not going on the ride this is about 10-15 minutes from the trail head and if we chose to use this option we need to adjust the times accordingly. I have his address should we choose to do this.
PLEASE THOSE AT THE BP MEETING THE TRIANGLE GROUP HAVE YOUR VEHICLES FULL OF FUEL SO WE CAN CONTINUE TO MOVE ON.
Bottom Line up Front
BLUFF: We need to be at the BP fuel station at Exit 170 I-40 WB NLT 0830 to depart for the final leg of the trip.
Just want to make sure.
