Looks like I am going to need my camera and 64mb chip for this event!
Hey Scott-
I just want to confirm where we are meeting and what time (approx)?
Does anyone know if cells get a signal out there? I would like to get a couple of your numbers just in case...
Anyone else gonna have handhelds? How about CH4?
Thanks,
Christian

Those trails look good, hope the temps stay down. Last week it was around 95 everyday. Also, Roadtripr[Carsten] (went with me and Marc last time on Carvacre) wants to go I think and maybe my buddy with a Tacoma. Should be fun exploring.

Possibly, If we get an early start, I was planning on leaving Sun.
We could save some of the shorter trails for Sun morn- Calcite Mine is about an hour each way, longer if you explore the side canyons; Fonts point is really short, easy trip with a good view of Borrego Badlands at the end, about 30 mins each way.
What about Fri? What time are people showing up? I'm leaving sometime afternoon hopefully before 3pm.

By the way, you usually can buy good grapefruit in town or around the orchards around Coyote Canyon. There's a cool place near Coyote Canyon where you can buy a whole variety of tastey dates, too. (I wish I knew which road. But you might ask in town where the date store is so you can drop by when you have the whole crew. Actually, you probably won't have time. Never mind...)

You'll want to check your map. You may have already known that, but if not, it'll save you time.
