GraemeWare Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Lutz, Busy Saturday, but we may come down late on Saturday (or maybe very early Sunday). It is the week after the Molina Ghost run though, so may have killed the truck already .... but we have spares! Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desertcrawler Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 You remind me of dad. I will be camping and can bring a bundle of wood. My eta will be about 30mins after my tour ends (not sure how long that will go for) but most likely from 1:00-2:00. -Tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lutz Posted May 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 OK guys trip right around the corner. It has been windy so dunes will be soft and steep. Looks like the wind is calming down so keep your fingers crossed. I will post up a gpx track to campground that will be the easiest way to camp for everyone.
