Barko - if there is a way to not do the spincter clinchers, I may do the CO run - I thought they were doing the Alpine Loop - which is pretty much makes me askeered.

I think there are a number of options. I think the biggest challenge on the Alpine Loop would be a section of Engineer Pass (please share your opinions). I haven't been there so I don't have 1st hand knowledge. I know I'd be willing to run back up Stony Pass, or the Red Mountain area up to US Basin, or Clear Lake and Sunday I might do Ophir if I want to end up on the Telluride side and head to Moab (just depends, partly weather). None of those areas are killers but they do have some challenges but my Longbed ext cab rally didn't have any problems. I found a link to a video on the road to US Basin. It doesn't show the few more challenging spots but it does show what a cool road it is.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ty-mN2NS7uc There is another lower section of that road, just North, that goes through several mines, I might want to hit that.

Hi all,

October 9th and 10th (and 8th and 7th?) are almost here. Lets confirm, who and when?

I'll roll in Friday night. I expect between 2 and 4 car/tent campers will come up Friday night or Saturday morning.

(Kyle, sorry to hear it.)

[RonSchon]

I should be there Friday early in the day. Leaving home Thursday morning. I have Monday off, so can head home on Monday morning.

[Mark W. Ingalls]

If our health continues, we'll leave Houston on Thursday afternoon.

Just confirm the destination is Pioneer Pass, Gila, AZ 85501?
