Event Description

ITS ON!!! That’s right everyone we thought it was canceled but, an Email I received today states the fireworks display will be held July 6th so we are doing our annual run from the 5th to the 7th.For the newbie’s This is an awesome trail for your first run with Nor cal. The trail is rated as easy so your stock rigs will make it. For the vets there are the usual hot spots like V-rock, Hollywood hill, poise rock, and now Beer rock. If you want to know how fun it was hit up the guys and gals from the last trip and plan the date...

We will caravan at 12 noon on Thurday at the park and ride on 145 and 41. Please let me know if your meeting us so we don’t leave you behind.

::::ATTENTION::::

Everyone attending I need a list of people meeting up with us at noon on Thursday!!!!! As for the weekend Thursday will just be a "set up camp day" and welcome the new comers to our shindig. Friday is up for grabs I'm wanting to hit the lake / creek for a fishing session in the early morning. We may hit some of the alternate trails in the area. Friday night Im going to cook up some tritip for everyone ( if you can bring a side dish it would help) on the smoker then its party time lol. Saturday we will leave camp around 12 noon to head up the trail. We will hit what ever obstacles on the trail you are all wanting to take on. Saturday night we will watch the fireworks over the lake from way atop bald mountain then its a night trip down the trail to camp. This is just an Idea of what the weekend will hold Id like to welcome the new comers that are rsvping to all of you that need a spotter at any time on this run we are all here to help but I think you will be fine even if this is your first offroad adventure.

Got 2 signs 1 will be on the turn off at rockcreek road the other will be the turn off at the camp grounds (the directions and maps are in the comments)

Comment by crawlinrollins on June 21, 2013 at 9:14pm: no problem NekGuda we will leave the meet spot 41-145 around 1230 unless something happens or someone is late. Im not sure the drive time to that point is so I hope you don't have to wait to long. The camp sight is pointed out in the first few pages of comments on here its on rock creek road about a mile up on the left just after the small bridge.

Comment by LuvDirt • (Keith) on June 21, 2013 at 6:26pm: Sorry everyone had to change my plans for July 4th. Hopefully I can make this one next year.

Comment by NekGuda on June 21, 2013 at 3:54pm: Thanks Mike.

After I wrote that I was bored so I took a drive up to the campsite. Pretty sure I was at the right turn off, just after the rock creek crossing..looks like a great place to camp!

Also we are going to meet you all at the Dinkey Creek Rd turn off it will be much easier for us that way.

Comment by Mike Oliver on June 21, 2013 at 9:40am: @Nek - You can get a popup in there. The main road is slightly paved with potholes, the campsite is a dirt road and bumpy, but plenty of space

Comment by NekGuda on June 21, 2013 at 8:17am: We're in.

Since we are coming from Clovis is it cool to meet you all at the ranger station at the start of the four lane? Also, we will be bringing our pop-up trailer is it possible to get it to the campsite? I have looked at Google Earth and it looks like paved and fire roads, but wanted to check with those who have been there.

Comment by crawlinrollins on June 20, 2013 at 11:05pm: If anyone hits Madera by 11am you can swing by the house since I'm a block off the rout. Instead of making the left onto Yosemite make a right I'm on the next street "north J street" make another left Im the first house on the left side. 108 N J street madera ca 93637 (for the gps)

Comment by FJ Drivin on June 20, 2013 at 4:34pm: Hey everybody!

What kind of side dish can I bring?

Any ideas?

Comment by Mike Oliver on June 20, 2013 at 12:28pm: Hey Guys,
I thought I would post this to go along with Sean's info. Incase you like to download google maps data to your phone (like me!)
Cheers
