Traffic will be light, but traffic lights will be abundant. Someone must have offered a smokin' deal on traffic lights because Tucson is loaded with them. The good thing is they haven't figured out how to time the lights to keep traffic flowing. It's almost impossible to make two consecutive lights doing the speed limit. I like Tucson and lived there for quite a while, but they are nutters with slow street speed limits, lights, stop lights for crosswalks with no streets and don't get me started on the suicide lanes, do they still have those?

Got rid of the suicide lanes a few years back. No one goes the speed limit, it's at least 10 mph over or under...
My experience has been 10 under especially in the left lanes and the people trying to get to 10 over are tailgating, swearing, and darting around looking for space to get by.

I will not be bringing my propane fire ring unless someone plans on bringing an EZ-up.
Let me know.
EDIT: US fire restrictions <link

Fires are "Good to go". They have had about 2" of rain over the last week on top - fire restrictions are lifted.

Hey guys my name is Cameron I met you guys out on the trail today. I was in the green 4runner that pulled a land cruiser off the side of the road and drove through that huge cow pond. I saw someone in your group videotape my run through the cow pond and was wondering if it would be possible to get a hold of it! It was nice meeting you all and I hope to see you guys on the trails again soon! thanks,
Cameron

You may not know, so no dig on you, but: Most cattle ponds are lined, constructed with a layer of clay. When they are driven in, the liner is damaged, making them leak, costing the rancher big $$$ to repair. Please don't post evidence on the web for them to use against us.
What rig were you driving, a 60? I'm sometimes have a hard time putting names/handles/rigs and faces together.
It was a great trip, thanks for putting it together. I must say, that getting an unlocked 80 with 285 toyo at's back up 3 feathers without a spotter took a few minutes, but it was doable. I ended up taking the steep off camber slab side after trying 3 other approaches. I had to be back in town by 5, sorry I had to jet out quickly at the end.
