    Everyone in here.
    I need to know if your over 80inches wide and 85inches tall.
    This is important for Saturday nights camp spot. It’s a decent trail that has a few squeeze spots and one tree with a low branch.

    also to respond that I know your a go again.

    Have a CO trip that may be before or after this trip...haven't pinned the logistics on that yet.

    I can still fit in my garage by a couple inches, so should be good to go

    I’ll get better measurements today.
    The one spot I only cleared by about an inch.

    So I went and got my digits.
    122 long... I mean that what everyone really wants to know, right. Lol
    75" wide
    85" tall. But I could cut it down to 83".
    But that's without a load and aired up tires. So airing down and some weight will lower it another inch or so.

    Starting to put together some kind of planned route. Not that we will be exclusive to it. But a general idea of where were going.
    The only planned hard thing is the permits for Needles and Bobby Joe Campground via Elephant hill.

    Work schedule is a bit erratic lately, but should be good to go...will let you know if that changes for some reason.

    10 Days to go.
    Finalizing routes this week via Gaia. Once done will share link for download to your local Devices.

    As for the start, here are the cords for Saturday meet: 37.37459, -109.73898
    My work schedule for the 10th is unknown. So, if y'all are coming up Saturday from down south, then we could all meet in Flagstaff and convoy from there.

    My schedule has finally stabilized, so I'm a go...will be coming up Saturday.

    I *may* break off and fly solo over to the Swell when we get to Moab...it's been a shit month, and I need to clear my head.

    I checked for the overnight permit requirement for Cedar Mesa and the campsite we are staying at isn't at one of their permitted trailheads, so as far as I can tell, we are good to go to spend the night there without issue.

    Let me know if there’s a specific time we’re shooting to meet up on Saturday or if it’s just whatever time people get there. It’s about an 8.5 hour drive for me from my place in New Mexico.

    Depends on who all wants to meet up coming up from the Valley. You can get there whenever. I'm shooting to be there well before sunset if all goes well.

    I would prefer and will plan accordingly to get to the campsite in the mid afternoon. It's a cool place to explore.

    Yup. So if everyone from the valley can be up here by say, 11am-12pm the latest. We can make the campground by 4pm ish.
    If y'all from the valley come up sooner, aka leave early to beat the I17 traffic north. Then we can be there much earlier.

    Up to y'all. If you guys want to leave early by 0600 or so, then we can convoy by 0900
