Guess I need to learn how to actually use a radio now lol That's how the FCC (or who ever) wants HAMs to run these days. Gone are the required Morse Code tests... They want you to get out there, find and "Elmer" and learn by doing. --Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRYA Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 That's a well-developed itinerary. Thanks for developing this! Out of curiosity, which days provide for opportunity for water refill. Stated another way, how many "days" of water should we plan on carrying? Is registration opening on the 10th still? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall we carried roughly 20 gallons of water for the entire week for three people. There will likely be refill opportunities on Tuesday - Primm, NV and on Thursday - Baker, CA CRYA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motobrewer Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 Here are the vehicle requirements and such from the sign-up page. This will save me a couple of clicks, and once it sells out, I am guessing that it will be hard to find again, and I will need to remind myself of the couple of things that I need to pickup for the event. About 2022 Annual Roverland Event: EMHT Seg. 1 & 2 (Driver) Minimum Vehicle Requirements Mechanically Sound Rover (as best as they are) Working E-Brake/Parking Brake 30" tires including full-size spare Recovery Points front and rear Center Differential Lock (CDL) (or other modern equivalent) Minimum Gear Requirements: Enough water for each participant for multiple days Extra Fuel Spare parts and tools Fire Extinguisher First Aid kit Recommended Vehicle Requirements and gear: Armor (rear bumpers, diff guards, sliders) Working winch Vehicle Jack and Tire patch kit Shovel It is very possible to complete this event without damage, however broken axles, CV's, body damage, etc. are not uncommon. NCLR is not liable for any damages. Enter at your own risk. At a minimum, you should expect: Pinstripes are 100% going to happen. Divorce yourself from your paint now. There are many steep drops and rises in and out of washes, depending on what this year's winter brings, the roads could be fine, or a washed out disaster. Vehicles that have low profile front and rear bumpers may see scuffing/contact. Mr.BlueSky and CRYA 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
