I nearly lost mine before John Bull a few weekends ago. Glad you found yours to. Mine seem to be missing again for this trip.

Let him borrow your 33's for this trip Marc, since he's better than open up front. It sounds like it may be possible to at least get through.

A couple of those obstacles make it look like taking your doors off might be a good idea.

Dates

I need to know the dates very soon for the day we plan to wheel. I am taking off to phoenix to get some work done on the truck, and will need these dates, as I have 10 vacation days to be used by Oct. 31st. So what is the OFFICIAL RUN DATE?

P.S. Might do a 3 Link in the rear while Im there. HEHE

Haha, well he came up with a great idea, and very cost effective for a rear 3 link setup that I can't pass up. I will be the guinea pig and test run it out there.

But the main reason why I need to go is, I just got a call from my Fabricator, and he said he wants my truck to change the Mounts on the Front Coils. I will PM u the rest of the story....

Check the first post. We'll be running Devil's Canyon on October 14. Some of us are hiking it on Sept. 16.

Nothing like being a test mule.........or should I say Sheep

Hey, the JustRuns group is going to run the trail on Fri and Sat night
Fri night is going to go the uphill way and Sat night is going to go downhill.

I think there are gonna be some killer rigs running this trail at night, it would be cool to see, but probably not so good for scouting out the trail.

They mention one of the start points as "mountain springs", that is an exit right? Anyone have detailed info on how to get to the start of the downhill route?

Here's the link.

http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp...y=US&geodiff=1

Yes, it's an exit and refer to the map link on Post #1 for the start of the downhill route. It will be marked as the the end of the trail on the map. Are you going to either run?

Let's switchthe hike date to the 23rd. I'll post it on #1. I completely spaced a wedding and am figuring my old lady would kinda get pissed if I missed it. I would also like to do a late afternoon/early evening (4pm) hike so it would be gettting cooler and not the opposite if we were to get started around 9am. How does this sound to all?

23rd sounds good, plus that is a good idea about the later start time.

Mikey, are you still working with SDG&E or is it a completely new job?
