Rubicon: Memorial Weekend- Pictures!!

Hyena · April 10, 2005, 05:13:54 PM

Who is all going? I will be there for sure. I did plan on going up thursday after school, but it looks like plans have changed. The person i am soppose to take has a sister graduating from college on Friday night. Looks like i will either have to come back out friday morning or just go up friday night. Have to talk to some people. Post up when you guys are showing up and were you will camp (guess). also post a pic of your rig you will driving or riding in.

Man I would love nothing more than to go but its not enough time to get my truck ready by then

$I\'m Down$ but maybe Ill go up and watch

KYOTA · April 10, 2005, 07:03:57 PM

Sounds like Moonrocks for us this year, have fun in that traffic jam

iNfErNaL · April 11, 2005, 10:46:38 AM

Toss up between Rubicon,and Moab....Depends on how bad I break at Johnson Valley.

84runner · April 11, 2005, 12:22:07 PM

Gonna be there for sure. But we are not going to camp on the trail , hopefully right there at loon lake if we can get there soon enough. I don't plan on goin in much further than the bowl, just hanging out at the gate keeper and run my mouth. But who knows

FOTR is asking this year that if you are making plans do go to the Rubicon for Memorial Day Weekend you think about an alternate location. There is currently (April 2nd) a 12 foot drift at the Chalet at Loon Lake. Current weather conditions are not melting the snow very fast and there was fresh 2 feet of powder on April 8th. If May is warm the snow will melt but the trail will be at it's most vulnerable as it will be saturated with water. So, if you are planning to go think about another place to go so the trail can dry, or go now as the snow is still deep and firm

thanks, Scott Johnston

im going in sat morning...if you get held up we can go in together!!

Rockbuggy84 · April 20, 2005, 10:13:57 PM

Man memorial day was a joke last year! Bumper to bumper so I ended up goin in and leavin in the dark. Hopefully the snow scares people off this year!

Jared · April 20, 2005, 11:06:56 PM

i would go brad but im just gonna wait it out cause i dont like goin up there with 2000 people....... have fun for me.....

Hyena · April 21, 2005, 07:47:41 PM

I might be going in thursday after school now.

TEXXX · April 21, 2005, 07:57:39 PM

im considering going in wednesday afternoon just to beat the mob and get a good camping spot!!

Hyena · April 21, 2005, 08:26:14 PM

You could go in with us. I am sure James i going in thursday after school, i hope too. Would be better to have a few toyotas in a group. who else are you going in with?

TEXXX · April 21, 2005, 08:33:36 PM

dont know right now but probably jaques and company

Hyena · April 22, 2005, 07:52:33 PM

Which Jaques? I don't wanna be anywhere near Robert. He is gonna be drunk as hell and will be bashing your truck if you get in his way. He has got this "badass bumper" now and he wants to use it.

TEXXX · April 22, 2005, 10:20:29 PM

jared but most likely robert will be close behind.

Hyena · April 22, 2005, 10:55:58 PM

Jared is way better to wheel with. Robert does put on a show though. Like when he rolled it last memorial. Funny sh*t.

TEXXX · April 22, 2005, 11:01:37 PM

very funny

he had a few too many

and then

which left him

Hyena · April 22, 2005, 11:03:21 PM

then he lost his key when he flipped it. He had to barrow my spare!

TEXXX · April 22, 2005, 11:08:30 PM

hes quite a character

Hyena · May 09, 2005, 05:41:20 PM

Don't think we are goign anymore, too much snow. Maybe 4dice instead.

BigMike · May 09, 2005, 10:11:40 PM

Yup, lots of snow Im sure.. I just found this thread, if I am not going to Texas that weekend, and if my truck is still in one piece, then count me in.

I'll run 'con or 4dice but I won't be able to take Friday off from work. So I would head up Friday night..

Hey, isnt 4dice up there off of I80? Pretty close to Rubicon right? Is the elevation lower or something because it seems if one's snowed out then both are

*FFC* · May 09, 2005, 10:16:33 PM

I'm planning on going up. I was gonna take my f-250, but now that I broke it I'm not sure...either way I'm goin whether I have to walk in. I'm probably gonna camp at Gatekeeper...my rig prolly won't be ready like I planned

BUT if I happen to get the front end fixed, and my leafs fixed...I'm bringin it up

wishin4atoy · May 10, 2005, 10:25:17 AM

the engine in my runner is gettin ready to go so i wont be goin up for a while after memorial

84runner · May 10, 2005, 01:47:12 PM

I know I'm haveing secound thoughts on the CON for Memorial Day. The snow is suppose to be pretty heavy still and I don't want to go muddin I want to wheel. So I am looking for alternatives to the con for memorial day. Any suggestions ?

KYOTA · May 10, 2005, 02:10:55 PM

Doesnt look like Fordyce is a good plan either

Looks like Memorial Weekend is screwed. Lets all come over above Fresno up to Bald Mountain. It should be great in 3 weeks!

TEXXX · May 10, 2005, 09:20:17 PM

KYOTA · May 10, 2005, 09:39:31 PM
