Are we sure carnage canyon is open? I keep finding tidbits that say it's closed.

EDIT: Looks like it must have opened up in april sometime?

Yes, it's open. See Jerry's post below.

there are two i saw that earlier, there is one called carnage canyon bv that is still open.

Yep, (BV) is the one we will be at.

Not sure on the elevations in that area, but I have gone to CO in mid June before and snow is still blocking alot of the trails....might check to see what is really open.

Eric was going to check on that I believe. He has some connections w/ the BLM in that area I think.

whats the leave date on this thing?

Those of us driving plan to leave out on the morning of the 2nd. Creighton and I are planning on camping/stopping in Amarillo for the night and finish the drive in on Wednesday and hopefully get some wheeling in on that day. We are going to try to leave out on Sunday morning so everyone can get home in time to get to work on Monday morning. As of now on Tuesday morning, Jerry is going to be leaving from Aggieland , I will be leaving from Rosebud/the ranch, and Creighton is going to head down to Hutto to pick up Curry's Yota and leave from there. We will try to meet up in Waco or Ft. Worth and convoy up from there.

Those flyin in are coming in on the 4th (Thursday) and flying back out on Sunday evening.

I updated the first post with all the info I could find.

I took JB off the towing list until he can confirm one way or the other (either way we are set on towing needs )

David, just need confirmation of wether you are flying or not.

Is there anyone else I am missing that might be going up with us?

[jerryg79]

Whoa, Whoa, stop in amarillo? Poosies! Im gonna stop and get me some of that horny goat weed and keep on truckin'! I was planning on rolling out on tues at 5 or 6 AM.

But seriously depending on how i feel i may keep going, plus krebs can always take the wheel. We'll see, i didnt realize creighton had to goto Hutto.

I havent heard anything out of lu, unless hippie has. Jones is interested. Only problem is if Jones, krebs, and j all go, I'll have 5 in the truck counting JB until we meet up.

How many rigs do we have to fork around with on wed afternoon/thurs? We arent going all the way to denver and coming back are we?

Is curry riding or flying?

DaveO you should ride and then we have more rigs to wheel on wed and thurs.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

I can meet yall over on 6 in Marlin if needed to grab some passangers.

Curry is already living up in those parts, I don't know when he will be joining us.

We will have all the rigs available because I aint loadin one up w/ out keys to it.

Creighton and me will be the actual only owners of rigs on the trip up (unless John comes), but I am sure we can weasle the use of a couple of rigs.

Directly from banks. Price, I dunno. Bout to call banks anyways for the performance kit for their motor home.

Looks like we may be in luck, according to this they havent had much snow out that way this year so hopefully it will be nice and thawed out.

i thought everybody was planning to roll in on thursday night??

wish i would have known this i would have just come in earlier. not a big deal.



if you guys are already going to be down in wheelin territory i say that those of us flying in just catch a ride with eric down thursday night, that way friday morning we are ready to go.

i dont see the point in you guys pulling 3 huge trailers up to denver for no reason.... plus there is no way 1 trailer could even park at erics house... maybe even fit down the street.

[JB]

If I went, (doubtful) I would have to fly up Wednesday night, and let someone haul Bronco there and back.

I think you are a little optimistic on leaving Amarillo in the morning and wheeling that afternoon.

If you drive straight through, hauling that heavy, I would really plan on 20-22 hours. Thats alot of driving. I have driven to CO alot. It is about 17 hours with a group of 4+ people in a car from CS to SW CO. BV is farther, but you get to stay on 25 for a while.

[JB]

I bet 9-10 hours from Amarillo to Colo Springs.
