Events/Trails Pig Party 2019

[J Mack]

I like this route for our trip. Looks like we would be at Camp 3 on Friday night. Then people can disperse towards there homes from there on Saturday.

I'm thinking about camping,
#1 Salt Lake 6/18
#2 Gold hill/Callao area 6/19
#3 Lucin 6/20
#4 City of rocks 6/21

We are pretty flexible and can adjust as needed if someone wanted to tag along and had a different agenda.

Looks like a good route. One option could be for those that don't want to head North to City of Rocks, to leave Lucin Camp and continue on the Transcontinental Rail Road to Golden Spike National Historical Site, Spiral Jetty and fuel at Corinne, UT & I-15 @ Brigham City.

Have we talked about radios?

We use the little baofeng radios and they work pretty good for these type trips but also have a handheld CB.

Wouldn't hurt to have a few extras scattered throughout the pack and I could bring a laptop to program them.

We'll be sporting a CB. Could also scrounge up a few handhelds from the hunting stash if necessary.

Here is a visual of some of the options discussed above; kind of a hybrid Relic Run 2016/2018 with alternate departure routes from Lucin.

We can perhaps setup some tables at the museum and eat there if that is a workable option.

Is everyone good w/ ~$15 per head for R&R BBQ?

Kurt @cruiseroutfit has very kindly offered to coordinate getting the food over to the museum!

 

[PabloCruise]

So far we have 16 people for the bbq.

Is 16 still our count for BBQ?

 

[Megadoomer]

Is 16 still our count for BBQ?

It's at 17, but @J Mack has not chimed in.

 

[J Mack]

It's at 17, but @J Mack has not chimed in.

J Mack has four more big jobs that need to be crossed off before I can commit, god willing that will happen this weekend.

Yes I’m good with the $15.00 dinner and I’ll give Kurt the $30.00 regardless if I make it or not so count me in for two.

If this is where I say count me it, so it be said.

Thanks to all who have just shed light on a good time.

I will be starting the journey on the 15th

 

[riderjgs]

No problem with the bbq cost. Assume we'll pay on site.
