San Rafael Swell-- Spring break March 27 - 31

[Fitzgerald]

Fitz, do you still want me to carry that gas can since you got your rack built?

You may have to remind me of your address Leon ... may still have it in a pm from last year but haven't looked yet.

Eric, I appreciate the offer, but I think I'll carry my gas can.

I read that this can has a crappy cap that can leak, so I'd hate to fill your cab with the wonderful smell of petrol for the whole trip.

Eric, sent you a pm

Why is there is always more to do than you think on the last day regardless of the amount of time preparing?

Well it would have been my can on the roof - since that's what my rack is made for! But that's fine ... Just loading up and wanted to make sure.

Yea, no doubt. Kinda glad we pushed back just for that. I would've really been scrambling to be out sat. morning.

 

[Fitzgerald]

^^ I agree. With all the last minute prep and purchases, I really don't think I would have been ready for the trip if we would have left Saturday.

Would you guys be ok with pushing off the depart time to 7:30 or 8:00?

8:00 sounds good. Dragging the little one out of bed in the morning is quite the chore.

Sure, no problem

 

[Fitzgerald]

Okay, I'm going nighty night.

We'll be pulling into Chez Leon a little before 8:00...

The later the better for us. We are taking I-70 so we won't see you until a whole lot later.

[jonharis]

Can't ask for better than that this time of year. It really can be a throw of the dice.

Thanks for the heads up on the latest info. I'm glad we delayed the trip. Those are some cold temps, especially if folks weren't prepared. Are there any good camp spots for 4 rigs in the Black Dragon Canyon area? Any pit toilets in that area?

No pit toilets at black dragon top or bottom. But if its warming up you should be good at lone warrior.

 

[CO_Hunter]

Looks like 8:00 and Lone Warrior is the spot to shoot for. Thanks and see everyone soon.

Sooooo jealous.... Have fun guys.

 

[Fitzgerald]

We had a SWELL time!

 

[Fitzgerald]

My daughter loved the trip, so it looks like I might get to camp more often in the future.

Also, that's what I70 looks like from underneath.

 

[Fitzgerald]

Good times! Some amazing views that my meager photography skills can only attempt to capture.

 

[Fitzgerald]

Goblin Valley State Park and a hike up a cool slot canyon.

 

[PWCO70crusier]

It looks like you guys had a pretty swell time! One of these days I'll have to go check it out. Travis...glad you'll be camping more! Let me know when you want to go...I tend to spend more nights in a tent during the summer than my house...

 

[karas]

Looks like a good time and beautiful views. Maybe I will get out on the next one.

 

[Stokes]

Man I'm jealous you guys! looked like a good time
