Moab 'ZuZu XV - May 2012!

[BigSwede]

ZuZoo is basically the same time...Tuesday May 15 - Saturday May 19. The Expo is Friday May 18 - Sunday May 20.

And it ain't exactly "on the way" from Minnesota...looks to be about 5 hours south of Moab. If ZuZoo was a week later I'd hit it though.

darn, I'll be driving to Alaska ten days before just like last year, my businesses season starts right around then...dangit!

[BigSwede]

I am also considering doing White Rim Trail before ZuZoo, anybody interested? (NOTE this would mean camping out in the wilderness for a night or two...)

A trip in the truck? Granted there are lots of overlooks and little side roads that really don't lead to anywhere, but it's only about 100 miles long. Easy to do in a day

Yeah, I know it can be done in a day...most folks say to take your time and stay out there 2 or 3 days. Maybe with an early start it isn't too rushed to go around in a day, I dunno. That would save the trouble of making camp twice. Maybe on Monday before ZuZoo?

I was looking at the map, and it turns out I have been on a piece of White Rim...some years ago I went down the Shafer Trail with a coupla other rigs (don't remember who, probably 8 or 9 years ago). Looks like we went down Lathrop Canyon to the river, then back. Those switchbacks are awesome.

Keep in mind that if you do want to camp in canyonlands you'd need permits to do so and now would be the time to apply, they tend to fill up very early.

I'd be down to do it in a day.

Yeah I've heard that...don't know if I am able to commit to an extra day until too late for reservations, I may have a passenger or two and their schedule is unknown yet. Might have to go for the long day trip instead. But that could change. Clear?

This year I'll be staying at the Red Rock Lodge. Some of you may be familiar with this place. A bunch of rowdy people seem to congregate there.

[VXobsession]

This will be my first trip to Moab. Who do I contact for reservations at this "happy hangout" I've been told about? Definitely wanna hang out with the most VXer's.....also, how soon do I need to make reservations?

Understand it sure ain't no 4 star hotel...heck it's barely a 1 star....and it's a motel not hotel. But it's fine...you won't be in your room much anyway

It has two rows of rooms that face each other with the parking lot in between them. The rooms on the side where you see most of the pics where our fam is hanging out is the "old" building, rooms smaller.

The other building across the parking lot is newer, larger rooms, a little more modern. I chose these rooms cuz some of those rowdy folk can party till the wee hours...and it's a bit quieter... J/K boyz...and Lisa!

The parking lot is like 50 ft wide, so it's not like your room is "far away" from the "stoop".
Here's some pics to give you some idea. These ar all showing the "older" building.
