The much talked about and long awaited October ROTM information is finally here! I know you have all been anxiously awaiting this post, in between exploding Android batteries and iOS 10 updates. I have taking this right out of the @Pitch playbook. If you want to read more, you can go here. Here is all the info you need to know.
Dates: October 14-16
Meeting place: Safeway parking lot, Sedona
Time: 9:00AM Saturday the 15th
Depart: 9:30AM
Trails: 525, Casner #8, 231, and others
Stocker friendly: Yes, I drove a stock 100 with our expedition trailer up the trail without much problem.
Camping will be located on the north side of the rim, south of FR 231. GPS coordinates for the camping area are 34.978315, -111.814385.
Casner #8 is limited to 10 total vehicles. I already have some people that have reached out to me. If I did not put your name on the list, please let me know (my memory is going). Tina (@aztlctina) and I will meet the lucky ten drivers at Safeway on Saturday morning, but I will need someone to take point from there, until you get to the upper gate. We will meet you there. We ran this trail last year so we are going to forego doing the Casner trail, this way it frees up another driver spot.
Tina and I (and the kids) are going to go up on Friday morning to get our camping spot, and hopefully mark some trails. We will be camping two nights, Friday and Saturday. If anyone wants to come up Friday, they are more than welcome.
In the next few days I will be posting the trail maps and directions on how to get to the camping site. I would highly recommend you come up for camping. It is an incredibly beautiful spot.
The lucky few:
1. @Pitch ** Eric will lead the run from Sedona up Casner. He is not going to ride with CJ @Chrismanjs and free up a spot.
2. @Saddletramp
3. @murf
4. @LandCruiserPhil
5. @ftbshop
6. @1Louder - dropped out.
7. @LongDuck
8. @Abigail Paul
9. @Funner
10. @Nifski
11. @Chrismanjs with @Pitch riding shotgun.
12. @Dissent
The almost lucky few:
1. @jclarke450
2. @Mattman
Happy Campers:
1. @Cruddz
2. @jclarke450 - they gave their spot to @LongDuck
3. @brices123 & @aztlctina
4. @Pitch **

Maps:
1. Casner Map 1 - Route 89a to Casner via 525
2. Casner Map 2 - Casner #8 to campsite
3. Casner Map 3 - 89a to campsite via 535/536/231
4. Casner Map 4 - Campsite to 89a or Flagstaff via 231
The first three maps are from the South Coconino National Forest pdf map, and the fourth map is from the North Coconino National Forest pdf map.
I think we plan on using our "go to" HAM channel of 146.460 and CB channel 4.
If anyone needs to get a hold of me, my cell is 602- 6 seven 9 - zero 946.
