I'd crash your party with my Isuzu, but 1. I don't want to show all you guys up; and 2. I have to go to some fancy wedding this weekend with my ball and chain <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" />

ruben, i plan to do an easy trail before the meet and greet. i plan to arrive around 8:45, get a pass, air down and hit a trail at 9. since you're pressed for time if you want to come early that would be great. nothing too challenging that might delay my arrival back at the outpost to meet the others.

i'll probably have my family with me so i'm not sure how long they will last during the day.

Hi Roger,

That sounds like a great idea. I'll be there around 8.45am and then leave between 11 and noon, because...

I needed to change the A/C belt (autozone belts are too narrow) which was screaming all the time. Of course the tensioner bolt sheared off, dealer had to order it and lowes/ace etc were not much help. I tried a few redneck fixes but no good. Two of my kids are coming with me, but they will overheat in the afternoon without AC and then we'll all be miserable. Plus my skids are off and the threads for those are partially stripped <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> so I'm not up for anything too challenging anyway <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Keep in mind my idea of meeting up early before everyone else was based on the notion that we were going to have to wait at the Outpost for an hour between 10am-11am for everyone else to show (It was originally just me and Mark that were going to meet up early). So we could get in a quick trail run before having to sit around and wait. Now everyone that has said they will be attending early at 9am, so there is no need for the 10am-11am meet at the outpost. Unless there is someone planning to attend that hasn't spoken up yet.

So since everyone attending as of right now will be there at 9am we might as well turn the quick trail run plans into a normal run then go to the campgrounds for lunch.
