Leap Day Run - 2/29/20 - Palomar to Borrego Springs

Yeah, 8a seems good. And for those of us coming from far that still probably means getting up at 5a, lol. But that's fine, I have no problem getting up super early for an excursion like this. I used to regularly leave for Mammoth at 4am. In fact that's my favorite time to do that drive, it's peaceful, you get to watch the sun come up and illuminate the eastern side of the sierras - it's beautiful!

 

I’m coming from the OC area. And would be down to caravan out there. This is my first time doing something like this.

 

OC LA crew. From my place in Long beach its 98 miles or 1.5 hrs on an early saturday morning.

I propose meeting off the 55 fwy and Chapman at this starbucks
6am..leaving room for coffee purchase amd lagers haha

 

that works for me, 6:30ish? lol

 

let's make it 6...so no one is waiting on us at trailhead

 

I will be there.

 

Deal

 

Is this trail good for a 2wd?

 

Yes, it's been laid out for 2WD's in mind.

 

Awesome!

 

6am beers? Count me in!

 

I meant laggers but I guess you knew that too. I was dieng when I realized my autocorrect haha

 

I’m still in for this trip barring anything coming up. coming from Diamond Bar. I know that meet up spot. 6am sounds good

 

I'm also down to meet here. See you guys at 6am

 

Ill also see you guys there at 6am. Coming from SFV

 

@Samus

Questions...

What ham radio frequency doe you want us tuned on?

Is there an address for the High Point trail head you can provide? I know there's an RV park right there.

What time are we meeting at the trail head again?

As a suggestion, this info could be condensed into the first post.

Also, you may want to provide a "last chance to fuel up" gas station with an address. I'm really looking forward to this run!

 

On it! I've been meaning to get all this info in the first post. I'll get to it at some point today, promise!

 

First post has been updated with more info! Let me know if I missed anything. We're a week out and I can't wait!

 

Cool. Thank you!!!

 

Myself and a few others are still planning to camp Saturday night at one of the below Yaqui Primitive Camp Spots. Both are close to the end of this planned run.
