Arrived Needles KOA, 4:45. Will be heading across the river to fuel up, supposedly a couple of dollars less per gallon in AZ. Anyone else make it to Needles yet? We may grab a bite and a margarita at what was Valdez, AZ side I think, 10197 Harbor Ave

We’re going to head down 395, should be about 9 hours to get to Needles. We plan on leaving Reno pretty early Sat morning.

At a shop having the new AC system I put in the 110 charged with R134a. This trip will be the test as to whether I can do plumbing correctly.

Leigh Anne and I are set in a little cabin thing at the KOA in Needles for Sat night. Looks like a 9-10 hr drive down from Reno, so we should be there by around dinner time.

I’ll be putting in a request for an extra 6 pack or 2!

I can’t seem to access the Google photo link, it says I need permission?

First winter here, will I need chains?

I wouldn’t buy chains just for this trip, but if you have some bring them along!

It’s about an hour from the main starting point in Auburn to Washington CA. Since I’m coming from Reno I’ll plan on meeting the group in Washington at 11:00-11:15 like the last trip. Really hoping the side-by-sides are somewhere else this weekend!

I’ll be there.  Leigh Anne might come depending on how cold it is.

[First Annual Overland Event (April 10th - 16th)]

Looks like a fun trip, Leigh Anne and I would prefer one of the first 2 weeks.  Have filled in the survey.

[January Trip]

I’ll have an open seat to ride in my truck as well if you want.

[Snow on the Way]

Great write up, bummer about your rear diff.  At least it was on the way home!

[Snow on the Way]

Leaving Reno at 9:30. Will have radio on, phone 7755012991 just in case 

[Snow on the Way]

Sounds good - 110 it is and I’ll be at the Hotel in Washington between 11:00 and 11:30.  Will have my radio on the regular channel.

[Snow on the Way]

Is the planned route from Washington to Bowman Lake up Rt21 or N Bloomfield-Graniteville Rd?  Trying to decide which truck to take.  If we're just potentially pushing deep snow on paved roads I can bring the D110.  If we'll be offroad and more likely to hit ditches/stumps/rocks and stuff I can drive the 90 which has a winch and more skidplates.  Full chains fit either one.

[Snow on the Way]

Forgot to mention that I’ll probably camp over Sat night.

[Snow on the Way]

This is so close to Reno I have to go!  If the main group is headed up Rt20 from Auburn then I’ll meet up near where Washington Road hits Rt20.  There’s the Jefferson Creek Scenic overlook on Rt20 less than a quarter mile from the Washington Rd intersection on the south (Auburn) side.  The group will drive right past, so that would be a good place for me to wait - a nice view while making coffee!

[January Trip]

Asked for permission to run a 35” tire trail, was rejected as I pretty much expected.

 

[January Trip]

Signed up for the run.  Applied for the same trails (with additional info asking to go with 33s), we’ll see what they say.

[January Trip]

I’m up for this as long as a few more club members go - looks like Andrew is already set, I would camp in the same area.  Would like to do any of the deep snow runs, limited to the 33” tire class.

[Swap Meet Raffle at the Annual]

A suggestion for the raffle would be to allow the first number picked to go and select first from the various items, then pick the second number out of the hat to select second and so on.  “Special items” or the big ticket prize would be separate from the rest.  This would help ensure that people have a better chance of winning something they can actually use.

[Swap Meet Raffle at the Annual]

A set of new take off shocks for a Defender, Classic Range Rover or Disco 1, new take off front shock turrets, new Warn hawse fairlead (cast steel or iron, good for wire or synthetic winch line)

Will have him join if he wants to come. 

[2021 Annual Event (OFFICIAL) Thread!]

Leigh Anne and I will be coming, please save one tent site for us. New neighbor with a slightly built LR4 would like to join club, will encourage him to come.
