We stayed here last time:

814 Weinrich Road (Just off 70 & I-10)
(505) 526-6555
(800) 526-6555 Resevations only

other places listed on the Las Cruces 4x4 club page here: http://yoda.zianet.com/lcfwdc/index2.html

Our little group will be staying at the Holiday Inn Express because I can get free rooms with my points.

The Best View RV park was really cool, but also VERY windy at dusk/night. Are we going to get any yokles to guide us, or just trust that troy can find off-broadway again

They've got GPS coordinates on their site. Anybody got one of those? I think I can borrow one.

What do yall camp in at this RV park, tents? Or do they have some sort of hotel also? I guess they probably have tent sites with water and electricity, and a bath house.

i've got one someone can borrow w/ a small deposit or guarantee to buy another one if you f*ck it up.

I wouldn't trust Troy for trail leading... If he is going somewhere, it will probably be on the extreme trails that we didn't get to last time (Tabasco Twister and Rocotillo Rapids). Everyone should do some research and figure out what trails to run and how to get there. There are plenty of websites that give the GPS coordinates of each trail, each with trail ratings and directions.
this is a good website for trails and directions: http://4wheeldrive.about.com/cs/newm...ails/index.htm

Everyone also needs to make their own hotel/camping arrangments - keep in mind that you can get lower rates with big groups if everyone gets together and someone starts making a few phone calls...

About the wind and dust - I was under the impression last time that is wasn't that normal when we were there fromt he guys we were hanging out with.

alright who is up for the camping thing. or getting together to get a room

[fbronco86]

thanks for the info scott. plus i am gonna bring my gps with me

[J Cooper]

i like the sharing room idea, just pack like 10 people in one room with sleeping bags, that will save alot of money.

[Shaggy]

someone make plans for the room and i'll throw in my part

I just called all the places that sounded cheap and the best rates I got were for 4 people with 2 queen beds: Motel 6 - $49, and Super 8 - 42.37. And for 2 beds but they'll allow 6 people: Days Inn - 60, Super 8 - 57.88. So about $10 per person per night. I checked openings for the nights of the 9th - 14th. Or there's tent camping at the Best View park. Camp site has water and electricity plus a bath house in the park for $16 for 2 tents max 5 people. Also another place for $8 for 1st person + $2 each aditional up to 5 people. Anybody interested PM me.

Must check on parking for the tow rigs and all vehicles.

[Doug Krebs]

We will talk about camping tonight, but I'm in for camping, so is my brother, and my girlfriend.

The best view RV park has a storage area that they let us park our trailers at. It is gated so get everything out of the tow rig before you park it there
