JFuller Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Lutz, I haven't gotten the days off work yet so I don't have anything firmed up yet. But I am planning on coming, camping and could bring some chopped up pallets. Anyone from the north wanting to caravan down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can meet you up on 680 or 101. Are you down for leaving after work Thur night? I will if someone else is camping-I'm not camping by myself! If not, I have that Friday off, regardless, and can leave early in the AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AA Journey Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hi Luz, Count me in, I will be there Friday night. I guess this is not the high season and no reservation is needed right? AA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lutz Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 It shouldn't be sold out. Still 986 sites available but always a good idea to reserve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomOwen Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Hi Lutz, I am planning on joining the trip and have made a ReserveAmerica reservation It will be at least me and possibly either my oldest daughter (15) or a Jeep BuddyPlanning on a maiden voyage of yet to be assembled/retrofitted Camping Trailer...we'll see how this works out...N00b Q: Is it BYOx for food, etc... Assuming a grill and such at the camp site? 1) Your eta arrival to PismoPossibly Thursday night but likely Friday and depending on school, early evening (4p-7p window) 2) Are you camping or staying in a hotel; if camping, can you bring a bundle of wood?Camping - yes, can bring wood (with trailer can bring a larger amount let me know if extra needed) 3) Anyone interested in hitting Garcia Ridge Saturday afternoon; leave camp after lunch be back before dark.Sounds like fun, Depending Terrain:Mod ratio, I/we may be candidates for shot-gun seats - play by ear... Thanks for coordinating this trip, feel welcome to ping/PM me if you need more info etc.. and I will update as things solidify on this end. Cheers, TO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will if someone else is camping-I'm not camping by myself! If not, I have that Friday off, regardless, and can leave early in the AM. Not sure on the leave time. I could be convinced to leave after work on Thrusday but... it's a long drive. Maybe we could split it and stop somewhere to camp along the way. Fastest for me is the I-5 straight down and then cut west on the 41. But that's a 5+ hr trip and in the rover, even longer. If we went the 101 then maybe we could stop somwhere near Monterey for the night and make the beach early Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNelson Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 My route is 680S to the 101S. I'm down for doing that as well (camping part way). I know of a wonderful restaurant that brews their own beer. Food is fab and my hubby loved the beer! I'll have to look it up on yelp. I posted a good comment on that restaurant.

SLOHybrid Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Guys... no need to bring wood I literally have felled recently a huge Oak tree and have cut it up into rounds but yet to split it so is perfect for camping... I may try show up friday night @ least to bring wood in my trailer for everyone (it's the least I can do:p) see you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFuller Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I'll be there with my wife on Friday afternoon. We will be camping and can bring some firewood. I am interested in Garcia Ridge but need to be sure the wife can get some beach time in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinB Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I am arriving Friday afternoon. I will have my trailer. And 2 guests one is coming in a stock jeep commander. He is not going to be taking it to Garcia ridge. They will all ride with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco2Guy Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I'm sorry to say I'll have to miss this trip. The recent repairs (driveshaft, battery and TB defroster) and an unpaid state tax bill has left me with no money for the rest of the month. I was really hoping to make it to Pismo. Maybe I can make it down later in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco2Guy Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 There's still hope! Tom Owen might have a spot for me in his rig. We're figuring things out, so you may still get to see the goggles (yes I have a few sets to choose from now:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonG Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I was thinking about getting an air down kit for this trip...either the Staun Tire Deflator or Trailhead Automatic Tire Deflator. Any thoughts on which one might be better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandRonB Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Updated the 1st page to include the dates for our annual members gathering in Hollister Oct 5-7.
