In an attempt to nail down a date for the September Farmington run, I'm starting this thread. Graham mentioned the annual cleanup is the 4th and 5th. Labor Day is the 6th. I'm sure this will be more cleaning and less wheeling if we pick this weekend, but Graham already mentioned that he has this weekend off.
Some posts listed the 18th as not good. The monthly meeting was proposed for that date anyway (by the person willing to host).
The next option (good with Graham if we nail it down soon enough) is the 11th and 12th.
Please express your interest to attend so we can make the dates official. I will commit to attending either weekend.
If you're not familiar with the Farmington area, specifically 'The Glade' aka Chokecherry Canyon, it's kind of like the Puerco on steroids. There is less loose sand and more rocks. Plenty of mild stuff for the wimps like me and plenty of hardcore stuff for everyone else. It is frequently the location for hardcore rockcrawling competitions. It's pretty much all BLM land so you can primitive camp on it, as far as I know. Or there's a KOA in town along with several cheap to expensive hotels. My sister lives there and I might be able to convince her let some people crash at her house or throw up a tent in the back yard, as long as you can deal with her two high-energy golden retrievers.

this year is bad for me with all the extra stuff doing on. Yellowstone, Durango, Moab, Baja 1000...I'm full up on trips.
