    I'd love to join this trip, if I get my truck in. Should be delivered around this time or a little before.

    Just spent a week in Death Valley for Thanksgiving. Deep fried a turkey and camped in the Geologist Cabin on Thanksgiving day. We camped at a few other spots as well. We did Titus Canyon, Lippencott, Ballarat, Barker Ranch (made most popular by Charles Manson), Saline Valley, Mengal Pass, Goler Canyon wash, and Racetrack. Wish I could go back and join you guys. Have a great trip! Looking forward to seeing your photos.

    Bless any of you that attempts Chicken Rock. haha

    Few weeks to go. Things still look good. I will prob be cutting out of the bay around noon on thursday to get to camp around 9 or so. Not sure if going north or south yet, will depend on the weather. Will make that decision the week of. I will start a group chat next week so we can finalize everything together.

    we will hit tea kettle. Eureka, saline hot springs, lippincott, racetrack, lost burro mine, camp on a protected ridge that may have snow (if we are lucky).

    Baker is the south entrance, and then you get a bunch of pavement mid trip.

    Is anyone passing by Benicia on or before the trip next week? Was hoping someone could pick something up for me at Jerry's shop.

    90% a go for this trip (manager approved my PTO request but said he would give me a final answer wednesday in case they need me to stay local/available).

    Have you sent out the details for the trip yet, @jAndyMendo ?

    Looks like snow in Tahoe during the planned travel time. 8 - 12" during the day. Maybe go south, around the horn instead? It does add 2 hours to the route, so maybe it's worth it to go through south lake?
