Planning to leave early Friday morning hopefully be there by 1:00 or 2:00. Plans have changed and my mom will be joining so we will be doing the chili cook-off too. It looks like I will be towing the old girl up there

Looks amazing. I haven't been there for a few years but was thinking we need to do club run up there one of these days.

As always Rovicon does not disappoint. Special thanks to Greg Don and Eric for the planning and of course Tyler and Tim Scully for all the repairs they did on the trail to help everyone get through.

Now I'm sad . I have tours booked on Tuesday after the Rubicon. I think I'm going to run into a time issue if I try to run it backwards with you guys.

In past years the registration will be at camping area just make sure you have already sign up online . So far for me is to drop off the trailer at the end of trail {Tahoma} Thursday and make it to camp Late afternoon. Is anyone else dropping off a trailer ? Also do we need extra propane for campfires? to camp Rovicon.kmz

Wow what an amazing trip you guys had. Thank you for the great write up Miles.

Sadly I'm still working and prepping for rovicon. Also there was a new forest order released and it says ball mountain is closed but they may have it open I'd give them a call.

cant wait to back to that area.

Should be another great time .

Looks like a good time wish I would have made it out there.

Have fun and be safe out there today guys. If I knew I was going to be closed this week I would have driven up

Just got back for a quick day trip to Carrizo still blooming and talked to the ranger and he said .Once we get some heat it will really bloom. They have added extra portapotty's and every bathroom spot they are expecting 20k visitors on the weekends.

here you go 2023-03-10 1745__20230310_1745.gpx

Sure do Will post up when I get back home

Just arrived in cuyama. Weather's pretty nice out here no rain just scattered clouds

Hoping to leave around 3 pm .also are we doing a real fire? Also heads up for 58

If it raining by me ill come out Friday and stay for the day Saturday .

Yeah it's just a cheapy Amazon version not as nice as the helinox. But seems to do the job. Paired with a xtherm mattress and a enlightened equipment 0° quilt it's pretty comfy.

is that the starter on the bottom of the transmission?

Just uploaded some photos and we'll get the drone videos up. Need to figure out the new update so I can fly with no cell service. Thanks for everybody that put it on it was a great time already thinking about next year.

I also may have enough room right now I just have Mike myself and Buddy Phil and his minivan so I'm sure we could squeeze in one if needed. Planning to leave here around 3:00 Will be monitoring and see our frequency 146.460 also the shaver lake repeater 146.820- 141.3

I will be there plus my friend and his son.

Sorry to see you can't make it I'm sure someone might be interested in it. Also there are plugins at all the campsites so you could bring a little extra heater and be nice and toasty in a tent.
