Sweet, I guess you enjoy the car. It gets good mileage on the highway too, 26ish if I remember correctlyQuote:

ill bring a tap
yeah, im like on a diet and stuff, i would gain it all plus 10 lbs back if we had a keg of oatmeal stout. That and I bet it would cost a buttload.Quote:

edit: Turtle Rock? I don't know anything about it either, other than that a friend recommended it and I can't find much on the internet, which hopefully means not too many people know about it. We have to bring our own water and may have to set up a portajohn...but I would prefer that to sharing a site, especially considering how many people we have
wtf? no showers, f- that! that may be ok for you hippies, but i use soap and deoderant like at least once a quarter!Quote:

alright princess, why don't you give those kampgrounds a call and see if they've got parking for 3 ginormous trailers. Might as well stay at the Super 8 and meet us on the trail. I'm bathing in creek water. Maybe you could take the money you save on that campsite and buy the group a solar shower
I know there are at least two different styles. Remember our triple tap kegerator in college?:gigem:Quote:

I'll email them about reservations and trailer parking. Most places have places for horses and rv's, i bet they have trailer parking.
Check this out. It has group sites away from the rest of the resort. Probably worth checking out!
that place i listed is the same way. Email arrowhead and see what they say. I think i saw that arrowhead has $7/shower.Quote:

edit: lady says the group campsite at chalk creek is not available, but she can give us two sites side by side....let's see what arrowhead says to doug.
I think you guys are retarded for wanting to drive to the mountains and camp in town, but you'll get there first so let me know where you end up parking yo sh1t and I'll be there.Quote:

Also a more likely place to get the cops called on us. We will OWN turtle rock or one of the other campsites for the weekend if we claim it Wednesday, meaning we can make big fires, play music, shoot stuff and drink late into the night and nobody will care.
your box is full.
some other concerns i have. What do we do if when we get there the campsite is taken? Its kind of hard to find a place that 15-17 people can camp.
Do we know that a 40' trailer can make it to these sites?
I can see this being fun if there were 4 of us, but with the amount of people and trailers we have, i see having reservations at a place we know about being alot better.
The places with the group camping have the large areas set aside from everything else cause they know you'll be loud. We've stayed at places like this with larger and much more retarded groups than this without incident.
what about if we make reservations at one of these places. We stay there on wed, and go check out turtle rock. If it looks good and is available we'll just say something came up and cancel our reservation. It says at both places there is a one night charge plus $20 for late cancellation. That is like $8-10/piece to insure at the very least we have a place to stay.
Thoughts?
ill second Jerry's idea of making a reservation and cancelling it.
But I would like to camp at turtle rock if possible
go for it. Nothing wrong with a backup plan. I honestly don't have a huge preference on where we camp. It's going to be fun regardless, and you guys will have a lot more invested in the trip than I will...if I don't like the way the trip goes I'll go back the next weekend.
I told you last time Eric, I am not going to let you in my tent if you can't maintain atleast minimum personal hygiene... :flipoff2:Quote:

If we can get a group campsite at arrowhead we can revisit this.
Otherwise we can go straight to turtle rock on wed. and if it looks good tell whoever we have reservations with to hug a nut.
Have I mentioned the Cottonwood Lake area for camping? Another recommendation from a friend down there.
http://www.coloradoguy.com/fourmile-...navista-co.htm
is this the turtle rock. Other than saying there is a campground on the east side not a whole lot of info. Seems cool.
yep that's the one. Looks like a prime beer drinkin location, doesn't it? :)
http://staythetrail.org/maps/files/B...ile_2005p2.pdf
here is a map, looks to be in the same area as carnage canyon and chinaman gulch. That might be nice so we dont have to load everything on trailers that day.
THere is a big ass river to swim in as well so im fine with that.
Im down for this place, my main concern at this point is just that we have a place to stay. So we can go ahead with the reservation/cancel and just plan on staying here.
we're gonna drink beer, its gonna be awesome!:gigem:Quote:

see what happens when you give people a little information?:flipoff2::DQuote:

I saw that map a few days ago, but apparently I was retarded and didn't find anything on it. I'm with jerry now, **** the reservations. Hell at the worst it looks like you could just camp on the side of the road if necessary! Eric, can you really shoot guns out there?
If anyone wants to coordinate camping gear, should we start an email list so there isn't a bunch of bull****ing on it?
I gave Ed that information weeks ago (you know, when he was planning the trip, and Creighton and him were the only ones coming?), and he was content with it :)
