Great news!!!!!! Fire ban has been lifted for National Forest Service land!
"CHAFFEE COUNTY FIRE RESTRICTIONS: JULY 24, 2011
After consultation with local fire officials and our federal lands counterparts, Chaffee County is removing its fire restrictions within the unincorporated areas of the county.
National Forest Service has also removed its restrictions.
A word of caution: BLM lands remain at Stage II. PROHIBITED on those lands are ALL open fires, including campfires; smoking except within a building or automobile; chainsaws and other motorized equipment “for any purpose;” and blasting, welding, and similar activities.
Another word of caution: Because of the unpredictability of our local weather conditions, and the possibility that dry conditions may well return it is quite possible that the County may return to some type of restriction.."
Looks like we will get to have campfires this weekend!

No worries. Don't put any extra stress on yourself. I have an open seat and we can run HC. It isn't a biggie. Any day on the trail is a great day.
I know this is super late, but I have some 17" 6 lug spiderlocks sitting in the garage. I am not too sure how I can get them to you. I need to spend a little time with the family since I have a work trip right after the Jambo. If you wanted to mount up your tires to my wheels, let me know.

My replacement wheels will not be here until Friday now, so I will not be at HC. I'm going to try to get the tires mounted and balanced Friday afternoon and meet everyone at the campsite Friday night.

I made some signs this year. I am placing a big road cone with some reflective tape at the intersection of Hwy 285 & CR 305 for the guys towing (305 is easier to tow). I also had a Jambo / Addicted sign made and I will place it at the intersection of Hwy 285 & CR 315. It also has reflective tape on it. Should be easy to see.
I will place signs at the intersections of 315 & 376 and 305 & 376 pointing people in the direction of camp as well.

Me and the SWMBO are packing everything tonight so that we are ready to leave straight after work tomorrow. Work ends at 16:30, then we will cruise down.
Will the signs still be up tomorrow?

Wow! What an absolutely amazing week of wheeling.
I want to thank everyone for attending as well as all of the sponsors who donated items for the raffle. The turn out for this event was EPIC. We had at least 60 rigs attend, and well over 100 people at the event and had very few issues.
I also finally got a tally on the raffle ticket $$$. I will be cutting a check to Stay the Trail for $656.00 to help keep our trails open.
We also had Tim from CRAWL Magazine at the event to cover it for an upcoming issue. He took tons of pics on both Holy Cross on Friday and Buena Vista Carnage on Saturday. I would like to thank him as well for covering the event.
All in all, the event was a big success. We will need to make some changes next year to try to accommodate a bigger camp, not to mention making the trail runs a little more organized. For a "Just show up and lets wheel" event, I still think it went better than expected.
I will be going through all of my wife's pics and should have them up sometime tonight as well.
At this point, my mind is absolutely fried which means I had a hell of a good time!
