ColinB Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 I am interested in going. Not sure what vehicle I will be bringing as I might not have my land rover back by then. PaulD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRYA Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Is there likely to be a Bay Area caravan for the rigs headed up on Friday? There's zero precipitation currently for all February so whatever snow was up there from December will be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drafdog Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 We will have a convoy of 2-3 leaving early Saturday and the possibility of one leaving Friday night but we are still working on plans (leaving from San Mateo) lutz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is always a really fun trip for all levels of Rovers and is always a unique trip depending on the snow conditions. Where: Camp Edison Campground and running the Bald Mountain Trail When: February 19-21 The plan will be to run the trail on Saturday. So people can come up either Friday and camp, or drive up early on Saturday and meet us near the trail. (edited for length) Is anyone interested in doing a different trail run on Sunday in addition to Bald Mountain? I'm not sure if any are open nearby (if anyone knows any please lmk).

Paul Ring Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 Looking forward to joining my first event as both a friend of drafdog and now a LR owner and NCLR member!

CRYA Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 So I stumbled into a deal on a Scout trailer. I’m considering hauling it for the 1st Annual if I have family joining so I’m going to bring it this weekend for a sort of shakedown run and get to know it BUT I think it’s still just me and obviously have room to share! Welcome Are there any kids coming on this trip? Are kids allowed? I’ve got a 5 and 7 yo but they are undecided on snow camping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just have one rule, they are to be seen, not heard. Just kidding 😉. This is a very family friendly event event. There should be plenty of kids running around having fun.

Elherbinator Posted February 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 So it looks like we won’t be having any fresh snow to play in, but there should be plenty of remnants from our historic December 🤞🏼. Plan will be to leave Edison at 9 on Saturday and that should get us to Rock Creek Rd by 9:45. We will air down some there, but likely just to take some bite out of the road since I don’t anticipate much snow still being on Rock Creek Rd. Then we can air down to trail levels once we reach the trailhead. If anyone is planning on meeting us at the trail and not at Edison, then plan on being at Rock Creek Rd and Dinkey Creek Rd by 9:30am. We will be using the ham frequency 146.460 as per usual to keep it simple. That may change on trail if there’s a lot of chatter since that frequency is commonly used by other groups. I plan to be at Edison on Friday. See you all then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
