3 years ago, a bunch of stayed at the Fossil Falls Campground --- just north if the Hwy 395/14 junction and right off the highway. There was plenty of space for any group size. Maybe that would be a good target again?
Nick and I will have some width issues up high ---- is that narrow spot on Lippencott passable for us? I've always thought the protruding wall and the slightly wash-out and narrow section would be an issue for a truck with a camper and a lot of width up high. Any thoughts?
We're excited to be joining as well. It'll be either Hanna (13) and I or the we'll bring whole gang including the dog. We will likely be driving through the night on Friday night to get to the meet-up on Saturday morning.
I'll be rolling in just before 8am on Friday morning, so save a spot big enough to park the Grey Goose. I've never been north of Shelter Cove on the Lost Coast, so I'm looking forward to seeing this part of the world. See you on Friday! ---- Andreas
I hope to be there with Kiefer(14), Hanna(12) and Penny the dog ----- if I can get the truck back from the shop. I've been fighting with mysterious braking issues for the last 4 weeks. I should know by the end of the day today. Unfortunately I sold Goldie (my other truck) about three weeks ago...
By the way, when we rolled through the area in July, Terrible Ivan's Fuel stop just outside Las Vegas (on the Vegas-bound side) had incredibly good fuel prices. Even diesel! I was tempted to fill every coffee cup we had just to take advantage of it.
We'll be there with the whole family, dog included. We're bringing the new rig, too. I don't think I'll have the new suspension installed (or even received) by trip time, but we'll muddle through. We haven't decided whether we can get out Friday and be at the meetup on Saturday morning or...
I'm also excited about possibly doing Baja (finally!). However, we have to get our stupid passports renewed as they seem to have expired! I guess we haven't traveled much outside the country lately .... Geez! Always something.
We also have Spring Break in the week from April 10-14 and are still looking to do something cool. Let me know if you want to do something --- we did your Escalante-Grand Staircase loop last Spring Break and enjoyed it immensely.
Hi Mike -- Cool mod. Looks good. Baja has been a bucket-list item for me. Have you been before? I'd love to head to Baja, but I'd like to go with a group where someone has been before. I think it would make the logistics a lot easier. I'm sure we'll talk. Take care.
Hi Mike -- Sorry for the late reply (I normally get notifications when someone answers) -- I was hoping to get out this week (before the holidays). My wife took the kids to ski and I had extra time on my hands. Not sure if I have any time next week. Let me check it out. Happy Holidays to you and...
Greeting all you happy people: I have some time next week as my wife will take the kids skiing. Does anyone want to head out on a trip next week, like Tuesday thru Friday or something like that?
Under the heading "My Own Stupidity Knows No Bounds" --- remember my radio crapped out very early on the trip? Well, I "checked" the relay box. Turns out the little BRIGHT RED light in front of the fuse means "the damn fuse is blown". Who knew. On the switch panel inside the cab, a little red...
