Not a bad idea. Like Tuff guy only a few hours away. Might
Throw in the Pinnacles and the coast. I'm sure by spring a
Trip will be needed.

Would be fun to see again after 12 or 15 yrs? Was thinking of heading to Az. to see the spring bloom in the same time frame.
Only 15 hrs away. Would be great to meet some of y'all, and will sure have a lot of questions on the northsatars maiden voyage!
Count me as highly likely.

At 3,000 miles distant and right during the middle of my busy season, I won't be spending an April weekend anywhere in California anytime soon.  I heartily recommend Carrizo Plain NM as a place to visit, based on the one drive-through I enjoyed so much in 2007.  I spent about 2 hours at the Wallace Creek site and could have spent much more.  The San Andreas fault and the erosional/depositional features related to it are classic textbook pictures--in fact my structural geology textbook, published in the late 1960s, includes aerial photographs of the Wallace Creek offset and nearby features. 

 

By all means go, and take Tuff Guy's geology tour.

To far for me too that time of year. I guess we will meet up with Longhorn in April somewhere west of Indy and watch the dandelions grow.

Looks like we have enough interest to make this work. Need to pick a date to start planing, I am going to throw out Apr 9th and 10th. I will probably drive down Thursday of Friday. Everyones calendar fills so fast these days. Weather will be a roll of the dice until at least the month before.  Some time in January after we get an idea of how many are gong we might need to get a permit. I can do the leg work on that if need be. Tuff Guy 62 will have a full class. I would like to have a pot luck on Saturday night other than that open to ideas...

Just saw this. We attended the Fall 2014 rally and met some super folks. Too close to LA for us. We like to stay away from large metropolitan vicinities. Maybe fall 2016? April plans are GSENM and vicinity-really explore this area as the two times previously we just drove several trails. Have fun!
