Reno Mini-meet II

[CrnCnn]

Hey Clint?! Any news about that trail?

Everyone else still in for May 20, 2007?

I just blocked this day off on my calander, so lets do it! I know this meet up is in the shadow of Moab right now, but I don't want it to fall by the wayside.

Bart

Not too much, I talked to another guy who lives up that way and he was familiar with it. Said its pretty good a few tight spots and switchbacks but he said we should be able to handle it.

I will post more when I get it.

I can't wait to learn all the cool stuff you guys will be able to show us from Moab!!! I'm still in!!

Everyone still down?

I’m thinking Noonish to meet up 4 grub. My buddy goes to church across the street from the pizza/deli place and wants to ride with me so he will walk over and meet us then. I think the Wrangler won’t be along, though he wants to try the road he said maybe he will do it tomorrow and give us the low down. The road looks pretty long on the map but if we wanted we could take one of the others and circle back to the start point. I think.

If any one has anything better for options let me know. I’m really indecisive, so planning this is not easy for me.

I'm good to go, but where are we meeting at noon? Also, does anyone have anything to get us unstuck?

Here at Nik-N-Willies

I dont have a winch, I could borrow a tow strap but other than that not much else that I can bring to help. If my coworker goes with his wrangler, he has a nice new winch.

Here is a copy of a conversation on THEROCKGODS.com:

Thanks,

Thanks,

I did it in a 2004 Dodge Dakota 4x QC. It was all stock. If you stick to the phone pole road you will do fine. The hardest part is figuring where to drop in to lockwood.

Go to Lousetown through Lousetown road. That will take you to the fire station as well. You avoid the highlands twisty turning and boring stuff and cut to the chase. Its really easy. Follow lousetown road to the end of it and hop off on the dirt and stay with the phone lines. You will go right by (High side of) bronco canyon and when you get the rock wall at the bottom (cant miss it) it will take you to logarmarsino canyon where it will drop you off at the P'glyphs. check those out and keep heading on that road and it take you to lockwood.

So basically BRING a camera, were going to check out some Petra glyphs. I also have found out about some other cool sounding trails and groups that we could cruise with. Fellow Reno VXers check out Reno4x4.com and hillsangels4x4.com for trail options and stuff. I think that the Hunter Lake Trail would be cool.
