Well lance, I just recieved a tom tom that does Long/LAT, Deff excited...so ill see what I can do with maps and such.
If leaveing monday morning will not be good then sunday would work too, I just dont want to be out there and get lost with no way of getting ahold of anyone...

I put in my request for friday-sunday so we will see what happens closer till the event, I probably wont be a deff yes till the week before..

At least I have a CB now, Unlike at pismo...

Quick bump!

Updated first thread with latest information on road conditions and an updated itinerary (Keane Mill/Mine closed indefinite). Titus Cyn is open!

I also still need to find directions/GPS to the Friday sites.

Those that are planning to do the optional Friday run, I am open to a caravan (Los Angeles/Orange County) up to Ridgecrest Friday morning at the Cajon basin (15N @ 138 junction). Time is still TBA but it'll be early.

And I wont have any money...


Have fun and be safe guys !!

I'm about 70% in for Saturday to Monday. Love to do the Friday stuff but I've always wanted to see the racetrack and can't afford 2 days off right now.

Still trying to get my rear suspension in shape. Looks like Marlin isn't going to come through so it's on to plan B or C.

Another bump! Who's going? We're 1 week out!

I will be changing the itinerary and remove hitting goler wash / warm springs canyon entirely and only explore the northern portion of Death Valley.

Rob this should help you out so you don't have to take several days off to hit these sites. I'll still have an optional Mon/Tues that'll cover the northern tip of DV.

The itinerary will be heavily dependent on the final head count and how long everyone is planning to stay.

Thanks!

That sounds great Lance. I'm up for anything but definitely prefer the North as I have never been north of Furnace creek. I might decide to stay another day if things are going good. I can easily start on Friday too if that works better.

Marlin flaked on me so I either need to buy some All-Pro springs or get my airbags working.

Bob is officially out.
Sean is still going.
Ken I believe is going since we'll be exploring the northern portion of DV.
Chris is still afaik.
Scuba is out unless a miracle happens on his taco.

I already told my boss to forget about the time off request I put in the day before the accident...
Im not gonna have money nor time. So I am "officially" out.
