I was up there also? which way did you go in? Where did you camp? We came in from Tahoe and camped at the springs, would hav gone farther but due to a lot of set backs... http://rockchangos.proboards21.com/index.cgi?board=chat&action=display&num=1058831714 we didnt go farther, I was also up there with seapickle the weekend before that and we went all the way through, BACKWARDS

Glad to hear you have been getting up there. Got Rig? We did not get to Rubicon until Sunday Evening. We then went to Buck Island in record time for me :yipes:

Came in McKinstry, Ellis Creek at 6:20PM

Buck at 7:45PM

Left there Moday late morning. Got to Cadillac and met one of the landowners, helped them back out as their rig was broken. They fed us and we were back home around 4PM

pics later

Well , after a nice weekend at Wrights Lake I went into the Rubicon to get some ideas for the signing project I am working on with FOTR.

Had my daughter with me and asked if she wanted to go through. "YEAH" she says, so.............off we go. At 2 PM we were at the bottom of Walker. 4:30 at the Springs after a nice swim in Buck Island. Got caught behind some of the JJ committe on Cadillac and got out around 8PM.

All the years I've been wheeling up there and this is the first time I did it all the way through in one day.
