I'll be somewhere between the meeting place and the trail head. I have your phone number and will PM with details when I get it worked out.
Since you guys are meeting in the opposite direction of where I am coming from I think I will just try and hook with you on the trail. I have a friend that lives right in Georgetown and what we might do is go stay the night at his house Thurs day and get the rig locked loaded and ready to go, then head to the trail at 6:30-7:00 AM. That way we don't have to deal with any early morning scramble, we can just eat some grub and cruise to the trail. So you guys think you will be at Loon by about 7:30AM friday??
yeah i will probably unload my rig and camp next to my trailer the first night. maybe go play next to the spill way
Cool guys! We should be on the trail then by the time your caravan arrives in the morning. Are you guys camping right at at Loon thurs night?As for our group, its just going to be my 4runner. occupants will be me, my girlfriend Starr, and my buddy Wade.
hey lets not pull a dave and break at the spillway
No kidding!!! No playin on Thursday night guys Start callin ya OYCJ and Infernal
FFC blackdiamond isnt going to go through placerville he is prolly goin in the backway which is a ton faster for him
Do tell. I'm planning to drive from WA on Thursday and figured Placerville was the closest place to grab a hotel before heading to the trail. Is there a better place or a shorter route?
If you don't need to go all the way to Sacramento, just stay in Auburn and take the Georgetown route to the trailhead. Has that yet been considered?
How is that much faster? It is 739 miles to Auburn via Chico and 774 via Sac. I would think the higher speed limit on the freeway, considering we should be arriving fairly late, would make the driving time similar? Placerville is only 789 miles. What am I missing?
LOL.... Was thinkin you were comin down 80... if you're comin via Chico, then yeah go the planned route See what you did Drew you messed all of us up j/k!
I-80 don't go to WA. From Eastern WA it's about the same to go via Salt Lake and Vegas, but from Western WA I-5 does the trick.
What're you doing bd? Heading down 5 to Sacramento, and then taking 50 to Ice house?
Ditto! I'll be at the HD there on Power Inn/Folsom by 6am... So far we only have me and yota18 for sure meeting up there. We'll be having some folks hit the freeway with us as well... We should be at least 4 rigs deep after we pick up Chris (full size blazer) and Blackdiamond on the way up. Am I missing anyone?
