Spotted in Honokaa, Hawaii

I’m waiting!!

Picked up Gabriel. We should make it to Baker by 5 PM.

Well, I think we are 98% packed, just need to throw on some shoes in the morning, button up a few things on the homefront and then it is time for Rovers N Donuts. See everyone tomorrow!

Great to see that Chuck will be able to make the trip.  On the group meal I’m up for it.  My cooking setup is too small for that kind of thing, but let me know what food/supplies I could contribute. 

Unfortunately, I'm out for this trip. It would have been a fun trip and will be for those attending. For sure. I just have to many things going on. 

If you need me to bring anything let me know we can throw it in our fridge we're only going to be there till Wednesday and of course have to leave and now I'm not bringing the new truck need some maintenance and gone through a little more. So the old lr3 will be doing its job

Definitely interested in this!

So sorry to hear Jeff..! Yes, Prez is correct. We (I) may be running this as Overland 2024 v.2 in the Fall to help "complete the circle."
Sending positive healing energy your way!

It was a blast, obviously biased but I think it was a great episode!

Some interesting data on where people are listening. 
 

So sorry to hear Jeff . Wishing for a speedy recovery. 
 
So I do have a tour now on Saturday 11th in the afternoon so we'll be making a late night to get to camp. Also found out my nephew will be running in state championship for high school on Friday the 17th. So we'll have to cut my trip a little short and exit out on the 15th. So I can get my mom to the airport so she can go watch him run. Finally good news though I picked up a new Rover and can't wait to try it out off-road. 

I too am gonna bow out...maybe I can tag along with Paul in the fall!

Man sorry to hear Jeff, was looking forward to having you along. Not to worry, we will pour one for you! Hopefully you will back up and running in time for the next one ; ). Sounds like we may make our way back down again in the fall!

Well my latest PET scan and numbers came back and my little trespasser has unfortunately grown and spread so they are putting me back on the gnarly chemo starting next Tuesday (have been on a maintenance regimen which was not so debilitating), that basically wipes me out for at least a week, so I am going to have to bail.
Difficult to find the words to describe how bummed I am to miss this.
Sorry mates.

Agreed with Sasha - if there are any roadside extracurriculars that arise we can work through them together! 

FYI, I have just replaced the itineraries that have been uploaded with V2. We will set a later departure time from Hole-in-the-Wall to give folks the opportunity to take a morning hike, big breakfast, etc. if desired.
An email has also gone out to everyone as well with the itinerary to ensure everyone is paying attention ; ).
7 DAYS REMAINING!!! : 0
 

Feelin' the love...! Too bad this event starts on Mother's Day.
Team: may I suggest that if things are running late or tight to the Aiken Mine camp, consider the excellent spot(s) here:
35.185, -115.825
Pic of spot attached.
Left turn off Kelbaker Road @ 35.183, -115.858
This way you can cut off 10 miles of mostly annoying washboard road and get to the Rocky Ridge start point easier on trail day 1.
Regards,
Paul

First post itinerary has been updated accordingly.
 

ITINERARY HAS BEEN POSTED

It's here. It's finally here!

Behold, the very long awaited itinerary fresh off the presses, attached below. Additionally it has been attached to the first post.
One major change - we WILL NOT be meeting in Ludlow, WE WILL be meeting passing through BAKER, CA. Earlier itineraries called for a meetup in Ludlow but after review we decided to run the entirety of Segments 3 & 4 for full benefit of those that did not attend EMHT 1&2. Baker provides a much better launch point to accomplish this.

Additionally, here is a rough plan for the convoy to head down to Baker. Sorry folks of House Nevadian, you need to come up with your own plans to convoy as I expect you'll take 395 down.

I would like to caravan. I’ll be driving from Sacramento. Maybe add a rendezvous point on the 5 or 99.
