Yeah Joanna & Michael, if it can work then it will. If it doesn't (like if you need a table to eat your meal) then it won't. No big loss. Better to try than not. A table would be nice, are you bringing yours?

Definitely unless I we can get the grasscat 'counter' done. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> I recall a key concern were the straps and how they'd attach to the roof. I have that under control if you think there's enough time to put a 'counter' together. Let me know. But no worries if we can't. I realize we're short on time right now and as busy as a "long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs" at work <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> ... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Also Norcal / Bay Area folk leaving on Friday... what time are you all able to leave? While I can't leave too early, I want to try and get out of there by say 3:00pm if that's at all doable but no biggie if for some reason it isn't.
Ray, I can't leave my house until probaly 4PM (I have a 2:30 meeting at work <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />). that would put me in South Bay around 5PM, taking Friday traffic into consideration. I've got lots of fire wood, enough for both nights campfires, obviously I can't carry that much. So, if any of the folks going want to cary some, PM me and we can make arrangments for pick up.

As for wood, I'll be bringing my own as well.

I am on track to be in Laughin about 6 pm Friday.
There is a change on vehicles. I will be driving my Dodge instead of the Jeep. There are more things to do than I have time for....
Sounds like a couple of people will be there and maybe we can meet for dinner and a few brews.
Anyone up for dinner on Friday in Laughlin???

Ray, I have to warn you that the waypoints W1-W5 are significantly off the road. Each W1-W5 waypoint is between 3 and 5 minutes to the south from the real Mojave Road way. Actually, the waypoints W1-W5 bypass the Soda Lake altogether. Was it really your intention to bypass the Soda Lake ? This lake is a pretty interesting drive, and there is a very important attraction in the center of the lake ("the travelers monument"). I crossed that lake two times. Also, I am afraid that there are no any roads really around the waypoints W1-W5.
I have the correct waypoints and my own old tracks on my GPS, so there will be no problems in finding the road for us.

Oleg,
The waypoints are more of a guide... but the Grasscat is the Navigator for this trip.
