TigerDan Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 BTTT. The date is closing in on us and we need to firm things up on this. For some reason, even though I filled out a trip request and its' receipt was acknowledged, this trip never appeared on the list of upcoming events and I don't find anyplace to sign up for it. I'd like to get a headcount, so if you're still in please chime in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinB Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Count me it. I am installing the lift next week. I will Need to male a test run. I might go to Hollister but I am going this weekend to the MORG. So I might head up to cow mountain if your in town. I want to make sure there are no issues before the trip.

TigerDan Posted September 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Due to the lack of response, I'm wondering if everyone besides Colin has backed out...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenmd Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 M truck is not fit for this trail right now otherwise I'd be all over it! I have a score to settle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandRonB Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Due to the lack of response, I'm wondering if everyone besides Colin has backed out...? Hey Dan, we have the Ham Radio class next Sunday Sept 12th @ Mexxis. That wknd is out for some folks. And 23rd to 26th is the Overland Rally. Leaves Sept 18/19th open. If I go, only going for a day trip is my new plan. Also may want to start a new thread and post the suggested date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerDan Posted September 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Ron, I had already taken all those things into consideration and set the trip for the 16th-19th, which was updated in the first post in this thread. Perhaps Gary or someone with the appropriate powers can change the date in the title of this thread...? I sort of hate to start a new one on the same subject and have info get lost between separate threads...gets confusing when there are several threads going about the same trip.

I didn't realize you posted 16th-19th; missed that post; thought still undecided which wknd; ok, got it. Yeah, if they can add the date in the title (avoid the confusion); attendees or prospective attendees won't get confused like I did; starts with July and then I now see the new dates selected Sept 16th-19th. Thanks for the clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GriffSC Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 I was part of the original interest group for this trip and now I can't make it. I apologize, Dan. My wife and I have an event to attend on the 18th (had forgotten about it when I initially replied). Hope to see you at the annual, where I'll gladly "buy" you a beer.

AA Journey Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 What date the slick rock trail will be run? I am still interested. I am going to have Pedram weld the rock sliders to my RRC. The earliest I can get there will be Friday the 17th. Are we camping in the Alpine lake camp ground or are we camping along the trail? For now count me in.

TigerDan Posted September 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 The plan is to run Slickrock on Friday the 17th, so you would need to get there fairly early in the morning. Not super early, since it's not a really long trail it can be run in 1/2 day so we don't need to start at dawn or anything. I'd like to hit the trail by 9:00 am. Camping will be at Lake Alpine both Thursday and Friday nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AA Journey Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Okay, I will know early next week what time i will make on friday. I will try take Friday off so maybe i can head up Thursday after work. i will post and update once I know when I will be heading up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerDan Posted September 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 It would probably be a good idea for me to get a confirmation from folks on who's planning to come up Thursday night or Friday morning to run Slickrock on Friday. I just checked on the campgrounds, the site says it generally closes for season after Labor Day. However, it also says that camping is still allowed when the campgrounds are closed, just that there are no services available so pack out your own garbage etc. Still have a few things to check on regarding Slickrock trail itself, possible closures in the area etc. Will most more when I know more...

AA Journey Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 I will be taking friday off, so i will be able to come up on Thrursday after work. What time is everyone leaving the bayare on Thursday? Please keep us posted on the campground we will be staying at. That way i can look it up and have an idea before heading up there. It will be hard to find it at night time. I am assuming we are caping in the trail on Saturday right? I just go the rocksliders weld to the RRC. Can way to put them to the test :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerDan Posted September 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 The campground we are shooting for is at the west end of Lake Alpine. More info here: http://travel.yahoo.com/p-parks-218634-lake_alpine_campground_stanislaus_national_forest_camping-i Saturday night the plan is to camp at Blue Lakes, at the north end of the Deer Valley trail. I have no plans to camp along the trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AA Journey Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Man, hopefully you get your springs on Monday. i know you have rock sliders and good traction. All you need is more clearance. How much clearance do you currently have? So if you don't get you lift, you will not be coming? AA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinB Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Yeah i am too low with the stock springs and big bumper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
