I would look for a hotel in Georgetown or go up to Tahoe and stay on South shore
 
I will be camping at loon Weds night. I think our plan right now is to stage in Tahoma and head in from Cadillac on Monday. Set up at Rubicon springs. then work our way backwards to Loon

That means by Wednesday, you've already ran Rubicon the other way around - Tahoma to Loon Lake, and back on Thursday to lead the IFS Run. Wow, that entails a lot of energy.

Correct. I don’t know how much energy I will use. I just sit there and give it gas. Simple enough 😃
 
39 days. hope you guys are getting ready
 
Well Guys i just got notice that they will NOT be doing the dinner this year . Still everything else . There will be a refund for the dinner so Plan on bringing extra food .
 
Check your winches . Run them out and make sure everything is working . Go through your recovery gear . And also your First Aid Kits . Make your self a cheat sheet of torque specs (We will not be able to watch you tube ) on the Rubicon

Jeff, I'm still saving for my winch. But may I request for the list of at least the minimum recovery gears I may need (aside from the winch). I might be able to procure some before the event. What I only have are shackles. If, there's an alternative (cheaper) than the ARB RK11 kit, would appreciate your recommendation. Thanks.
 
Monching you are fine you ran it last year with me . More to the point is to check your stuff . Just because you used your winch 6 years ago make sure it works now . Same for First aid kits Know were things are at .
 
You could invest in a good tow strap
 
I just learned this from Cal4Wheel North District - Tahoma staging area will be closed form June 21-25 and there will be re-routes.

Will this in way affect our exit from the run? Or maybe they are already open by the 26th-27th.

I see a trailer in your group. I've thought about how that would work myself. We saw a few RTF guys with trailers, but they obviously have run those trailers up and down with lots of practice. How did it go for them?
 
The trailers add another level of difficulty for sure but are nice to have them at camp
