I thought you were going to run Trails in Socorro THIS weekend ie 7/29 or 7/30. If that works for you great, if not I will try to get 8/4 off as I would really like to map some of those trails (I feel the flu coming on next weekend)

Considering people are coming from north and south, I would suspect 9am would be a good time to meet.
A general location just off the highway would be:
Amigo Mart 861
Airport Road
Santa Fe, NM 87507
We can top off tanks there, and the trail is just a few miles from this location.
Upper left hand corner, the star is where the gas station is. This picture includes Interstate access to this location as well.
Jim what do you think?

So, I'm working it.
Jim, you recently did Jaws and some other trails.....How were those for most of the IFS group?

Indeed, it was meant as a compliment to you. I think I read somewhere about you saying "after the 1st dent, it doesn't matter too much"....something to that effect....
I'm trying to keep the 4runner dent-free. Although I know one day, I'll have some major damage....guess I'm just trying to pro-long the inevitable..... :cry:
That would be great! Thank you for the offer. The plan is we depart ABQ by about 7AM. I'll be passing the ABQ sunport off-ramp about 7AM and Jim will be there waiting, on Channel 4.
How far off the HWY do you live?

Just an idea...
I know someone that owns a old turquoise mine about 20min outside of Santa Fe (not sure what direction, I will find out) and I'm pretty sure we could host a meet and greet there if we wanted. He used to host parties inside the mine years ago but there is also a little shack outside if people get claustrophobic or something. I could get a grill out there and some coolers and it could be byob/f I would love to supply the food for this thing but I'm on a pretty limited budget for the trip so that isn't really an option
The coolest thing about going out there is that there is turquoise all over the ground. Fun for kids or everyone to just walk around finding pieces. Thats what we did last time... anyway, let me know if you guys would be interested in doing something out there and I'll see what I can do 
The shack:

I have a new suggestion...
Friday we will be wheeling in Socorro (I hope you can get here in time Austin). Friday evening we will have a meet and greet at our house in Albuquerque for anyone who wants to come (whether you wheeled with us or not). The date coincides with a party my wife is planning in honor of our 2 kids (one is going into Kindergarten and on is going into High School). We will have some food here and you can BYOB if you choose to
.
Saturday we will wheel in Santa Fe. Saturday evening we should have a meet and greet in Santa Fe at the turquoise mine. I would be happy to fund some of the food for the get together in SF as well.
Sunday...not sure. I will most likely be busy and I know SteveO is too. Hopefully we will be able to find someone to lead a group on Sunday to Rio Puerco or something.
Austin, what do you think?

That sounds good to me. I may or may not make it to Socorro Fri. I won't know till Thurs.. Myself and Phil (spill02) might camp Fri night close to the trail and meet you guys at the trailhead.
As far as Sun. goes I can lead the run to Peurco if need be.

Jim, that sounds like a good plan.
I won't be able to make it to Socorro on Friday, but I am on-boards for Saturday. I'll volunteer to bring several pounds of ground meet for burgers Saturday night...
For Sunday, I would also be willing to take a small group around up north, maybe something easy but scenic around Red River? Just another sugestion...

Unfortunately I am not going to be able to make it, I have to leave Friday for two weeks of work in South Dakota. Have fun though guys and post lots of photos, all of the rain we have been having could make the washes very interesting!
