Re: MOAB RUN 2K7
I think I can make this side trip on Saturday afternoon.
Who's navigating? What branch of the military were you in Neo? Are you safe with a map?

Re: MOAB RUN 2K7
Just saw this update for the White Rim Trail. My plans are to head up Shafer from near Moab. I did this last year and it is beautiful. You don't go up the switchbacks this way. This lengthens the trip, but it is worth it. I am planning on spending two nights and 3 days out. I want to take my time and do side trials if they look interesting. I am not coming in until Sunday, April 8th. Planning on going out the 11th and returning the 13th. (Holy poop, just noticed it's Friday the 13th!) SR1355 is coming with me. (Maybe not. Just noticed his post above.) Anybody else is welcome to join me.
Count on food for 3 days. At least 5 gallons of water per truck. Camping gear. Not sure the temps at night on the Canyon floor.
Packing my truck tomorrow, leaving Monday for Florida. See everyone soon.

Re: MOAB RUN 2K7
Count me in for the White Rim run Neocon... Just let me know the dates and if I owe you anything for permit.
I'll have plenty-o-room for any extra gear... I just completed mock-up of 18X48 jamboree rack plus I'll have roof rack for overflow. Anyone got any thoughts on safe weight limit on spare tire mount. I stood up there (200#) and bounce around a little and it seemed pretty stout... Hoping to put cooler and 2-5 gal jerry cans there...
Bought one of those ultimate extreme cooler and designed rack around that and 2 cans. Cooler is suppose to keep ice for 6 days at 90. Not sure if we'll see that but we'll be able to keep some beverages nice and cold...  |
