North Main Divide Run 9-15-12

This is where we met up last time at the AMPM. The 15th at 8am, we would probably head up to the trail at 830-8:45.
We start on the trail from lake Elsinore and last time we came down the silverado canyon road.
Probably stop at the top to eat so bring some food.
It will have to be kinda early because I have to be home by 5ish so I can get ready for work
I'm going up with my brothers Fiancé so we have 2 right now. Maby we can get two more?

The list so far... Update me if u wanna be added to the list.


1. TheCheshire29 ( bringing brothers fiancé and her Tacoma)

Wow I haven't seen a main divide run for at least 2 years on here.

 

It would only be my second time off of pavement. I know it's not a technical trail, just so I can get out and have some fun.

 

I've never done Main Divide south of the peaks. I may be down for this...but only because the 15th is my birthday

 

Do it!
Apparently there has been no bueno weather arround there, but I'm gonna call the day before and update everybody. We are noony when it comes to this dirt thing, so don't expect us to know what we are doing.

 

I may be down for this. I wonder how long it would take us to run this?

 

From Ortega to Silverado should probably be a couple hours.

Any rainfall up there is quickly evaporated so I doubt we'd have a trouble with the recent storms.

 

Do you guys have CB radios?

 

I have CB and Ham...but i should know by Thursday or Friday if I'm going to be able to make it

 

I only have a CB. Hope I can see you guys there.

 

Im Down what time

 

Im prolly down. I have a 2 meter Ham and cb radio.

 

There is also an evening trip to Ocotillo Wells that same day.

Uhhhh...isn't this right in the middle of your cabin trip

I'll be going to one or the other, depending on if I feel like driving 2 hours or 20 minutes

I have a CB, and I'm always on ch. 13 when I'm up there.

 

Read the first post

 

How fast do these runs go? How often do u stop and such?
I know I set this up, but it's gonna be my first run with TW. I don't wanna be the guy nobody wants to go with cuz I'm doing things differently.

 

It really depends on the group...I know last time we had some trouble making sure everybody was still with the group (over 15 trucks) and a few people got stuck behind without a map or GPS and had to wing it. Not fun.

It's not easy organizing these things...I'm usually the one people blame on my runs for mishaps, but if we have a clear meeting spot and time, usually we just wing the rest of it.

Good news is that I know the trails up there pretty well (geography major) and I can direct anybody who wants to take a shorter way down or turn back or whatever. I'm willing to help, OP, if you need it.

 

Thank you Traveler. I'm probably gonna need the help, not ever even been to one of these things. But I don't think I missed anything too important so far...

 

Nope. Had to cancle it. Everyone ditched and im going to lake mojace the weekend after so id save gas.

 

Cool so I'll meet you at the ampm at 8
