This seems like the easiest plan (let me know if something else looks better):
Friday: Wifey & I will camp out on Friday nite (that way we can pick the best site for our group).
Saturday: The grounds open at 0800 so plan on meeting there to off load gear & grab a cup of coffee. Leave at 1000 to follow CSTYLES to the trail head. After that, we'll be having so much fun that no further plans will be needed (Just plan on returning to the campsite with enough daylight to pitch tents).
Sunday: 'Nother trail ride or ???
It looks like only about 1/5th of the campsites are reserved so unplanned guests, late arrivals, etc are all welcome without reservations.
Weather: Friday - 77-41 degrees & fair, Saturday - 71-45 with 25% chance of sprinkles, Sunday - 67-57 with 25% chance of sprinkles.

-
Nope. No CB.
The chance of sprinkles on Sat & Sun has increased to 35%. I'm still a go:)

heh rain doesnt bother me.. my vx and my tent both have a roof

I've got an ancient Cobra CB (circa 1975-ish) with hump mount, but no antenna. I used to use an AM/FM/CB antenna in my Cobra. This thing hasn't been fired up in 20 years.
Can you still buy vacuum tubes for these things at your local 7-11? :_shrug:
-
just a thought.. any cigar smokers? I'm thinking about bringing the humidor along for a campfire smoke
-
Ain't smoked cigars since we used to fumigate our apartment in GA with Swisher Sweets ... cured me 4ever.:)
BTW, forcast has changed slightly. Now forcasting 15% chance of sprinkles on Sat & 40% on Sunday. Maybe we'll get a chance to 4wheel dry on Sat & sloppy on Sunday.

8 a.m. is early for me, especially since it'll take me 3 hours to get there Sat. morning.
I'll shoot for between 9 and 10 a.m. to get to the campsite. I have directions and my GPS, so hopefully we won't be getting lost on this ride. A lot of the ride is off the grid so I approximated the closest points. Should be a full day of wheelin'.
See you guys there...
-

It was great meeting everyone: Eric, Karen, Andres, Greg, Norman, Jen (hope I remembered everyone's name - I'm terrible with that).
Got home without any problems despite the torn CV boot & no rear tags:)
It rained the whole way home & pretty much ever since so I haven't tried to fix it yet.
I got the pix on the 'puter but haven't uploaded them yet (network problems today). I'll get them up ASAP. Sorry, no action shots - just some dirty VX's.:)
