[2ndGenToyotaFan]

Aric, I'd be happy to take your Runner on the run for you!

 

[gnob]

as long as you swap the trans while youre at it.

Ehhhh.... I hate stipulations...

 

[2ndGenToyotaFan]

Alright, for those of you who don't know, the Mining claim is about 1.5 hours south/southwest of Yreka. It's a paved road 99% of the way there, and the only mandatory wheeling is 100 yards of basketball rocks and a creek crossing that will be fairly low this time of year, IE 6-8 inches deep...

We'll be camping overnight at least one night (I always hope we can get out there Friday evening, but no luck so far...) and the elevation is about 2500 so it should not be too cold. However, always plan for the worst!

Well maybe we'll just have to do some snow camping over there, just for you Jesse!!!!

Nick, you're in? Was it Becca that tipped the scales?

I can only imagine my friend! What are you driving up?

 

[dILzNAK]

so Whats the plan

 

[2ndGenToyotaFan]

My plan is to meet up with BB sometime Friday and head over to the claim, anyone is welcome to join us Friday, or roll in on Saturday. I will get directions out to anyone who needs them. I'm going to assume there will be a small group coming Saturday, so if you haven't been or don't feel comfortable cruising in alone, you can tag along with them or myself and BB on Friday.

So let me know when you guys are planning on coming and we'll get things organized. FYI the claim is about 40 minutes outside of Etna, CA. So you can figure your drive times if you'd like.

No snow on Scott mnt and no slide this time.

Trying hard to get the 40 roadworthy to drive it up. I should be able to get the rear brake line replumbed this weekend.
