Topic: Help for Newbs to the 'Con

[freds40]

I'll be heading up Thursday morning and I spoke with Big Mike a bit, and today Chris and Marlin got me a fat stack of the 12" Marlin Crawler stickers to post along the way to hurd everyone in the right direction. Once you pass through Pollock Pines, keep an eye out for the Marlin stickers @ every intersection and hopefully everyone will find Loon with no problems.

probably been covered but too many threads to find it again but wheres everyone camping Friday night?

[freds40 [OP]]

Is this one 488 or 489      . We'll be @ the Springs probably mid day Friday with a good camp spot all setup, relaxing, and watching the hurd roll in. If you're starting the trail early Friday morning, you might catch us camped @ Ellis from Thursday night and you're more than welcome to head on through with us if you want.

Not sure when exactly we're starting out but we'll head for the springs when we do! keep an eye out for my truck and give me a shout , I'll be running with a black and blue 82 and a teal Sammi

I've never been to the 'Con...I got directions to Robb's from map quest.Is that where I'm supposed to go?.    If not,will someone point me in the right direction    ?.

[freds40 [OP]]

Robb's is just off the road on the way in, (you can see it from the road). Those directions should help you along okay. After Robb's, stay to the right when the road Y's and you'll gt to Loon.

hell if you have to pull over for a few mins.
a rig or someone towing one will pass by and you can just follow them.

Here's a great map with directions from HWY50 to Loon, posted on another thread, but I thought I would share it here too, and I've also attached a huge map of the Rubicon trail.
