FALL 2012 TRAIL RUN/CAMPING TRIP

Rice peak is pretty cool! The 4x guys could hit the gap and then take the backroad up to the top?

 

I am open for the date. Just hopefully my boss will let me off.

 

Sounds like a plan!

whatever works, im gunna update the op here in a sec (wow i typed sex 3 freaking times before i type sec...lmao) damn auto correct

fixed for ya

 

**UPDATED OP** Still need to add some more info but you get the basics. Even though you may have voted already, just post which one youll be able to attend or both just so I can add you to the list

 

Hell yeah man, sounds good! If you only end up going up for a day I'll probably still camp

 

Im quite possibly in for either or both trips. Will mainly depend on being on call or not and cash flow. Will have a better answer when u guys figure out the details of both trips. Ive never been up the back side pf mt. Lemon but ive wanted to check it out for awhile now.

 

if your down to camp ill stay up there too man, its prolly a good idea for me anyway to make sure I have everything I need before my trip to Glamis and then the November trip

cool man, yea the first trip is sounding more like a prerun with some camping up there but the 'for sure' big trip I want alot people to come to is in November

 

How's the roads up there? Are they grated?

 

From when I went last the roads were grated and the only trouble I can see for anyone with low clearance is the couple of switchbacks toward the top

 

Yeah man, I always have the weekends off and if we camp I can bring my Huskey. Ill have all my camping gear set out for next weeends lake trip this weekend. I thought about Glamis, stll might go up.

 

Damn... I was hoping I could take the Element, so I didn't have hitch a ride with someone else.

 

idk man, i saw an oldsmobile boat car drive up there once, passed by it on the way up and when we set up camp at the top, that car was still going an element should be able to make it up, if i remember right its that honda suv thing right? i have also seen a honda pilot and range rover make it up

 

Yea, the Element is the tiny boxy SUV type car, but mine is the SC (Street Custom) model, which means FWD, and it's lowered. I don't want to risk it.

 

Your Element will be fine man, I've never seen the road bad enough I couldn't have taken my 3000GT VR-4 up it...

Pending the recent monsoon season didn't seriously jack the road up really bad or anything. You just have to watch for protruding granite here and there and all should be good. Might need a bit of speed in a few sections near the top but it's really not that bad. Honestly... it's basically Reddington Pass

 

Sweet. All of my seats lay down and make a comfy ass bed.

 

Mike and I will go up for sure first weekend in October and let you know how the road looks at the top so we are all ready for November

 

Shit, can I ride with y'all when you go? I'm usually always down for some off roading.

 

Sure dude! We're most likely campin up there too and Im prolly gunna invite some other friends to go as well

 

Ill bring the girl and some others as well. Now peeps can ride in the back and hang off the rack

 

Hang off your girls rack? Wow.
