Cool, sounds good. Still think you can drink beer faster than me?

Now it's bowing...First it was dancing around the fire in a thong , now bowing??? I m a little worried about the crowd I have chosen to associate myself with, unless you mean this kind of bowing

Really, I am psyched to meet all of you guys, it will be one for the record books I'm sure.

I never said I could. In fact, I'd bet that I could drink beer slower than you. I just don't drink much beer.

So is it still possible to get a "Mother Pucker" shirt? I won't claim to be a classy guy, but that sure seems right to me.

The changes sound good, I will check back to reregister with the new stuff on the docket. Thanks for staying on the ball with this Jeff, I really think this will work the best.

As far as prepared rigs, who has more than dual lockers and low gears with 33's? I would be pretty stoked to see some solid axles and 35+" tires.

I figured I owe about 1/3 of the folks coming a beer from wheeling with the cheese this summer, so what do you all like to drink?

Yeah - you can still get that version too. Just click my original link to the T-shirts up serveral posts.

If you really want one - you might order ASAP if you want it by the Jam.

Jerry From Durango says he will try to come for a day.

88 Runner, V6, SAS, about 12 feet tall.

Another of Jerry on Chinaman's.

Those are either 35" or 37" MT/Rs, I forget.

Jerry has 37's and all kinds of stuff. Presently, there will also be one other 1st gen that's been SAS'ed, dual lockers, dual cases, and 35's.

Oops - another very recent addition is a highly modified '86 mini pickup with 37's and dual lockers, too.

I'm sure I can drink more beer than Steve or less beer than Jeff. It all depends on who bets the most money.

Also, i'll swim Chalk Creek to the Arkansas River for $25.....

naked for $50.

Mike Nivett is not coming, you can take him off the list. Or that is what I heard last, he has not contacted us to see when we are leaving so I think it's safe to say he will not be there. I'll see him tomorrow and confirm, but that would be 1 less person on the harder runs.

I cleaned up and re-organized the list of who's registered for each trail. It looks fantastic already. I'll be posting this, but I ran out of time last night.

Holy Cross is full. Wheeler Lake is very close to full. And Chinaman's might have a couple too many. But overall it looks great between the trails and who's on them.

Jeff,
I know really don't have a say on the matter. Since I'm not going. But, I would work in a half day run up Chinamans on Friday also, to cut down the Sat. group size. It's one of most fun run's there. And only about 15-20 min. from the campground.

OK, I have the new page up that lists who's going on what trails. Go to this page. Also note the start times for each trail.

I made a few assumptions following the Wheeler/Chinamans swap between Friday and Saturday. Please review your trails and make sure you are signed up for what you want to do. Send me an e-mail if you have concerns marmot@trailseeker.com or re-register for different trails via the registration page. The web page that lists who's on what trail won't update automatically.

I think everyone's distributed pretty well between the trails now.

Of the difficult runs on the schedule, I think Chinaman's is the least scenic and least interesting. (I wouldn't expect you to konw that since you haven't been on the others.)

12 vehicles going through Chinaman's shouldn't be too bad. It's a short trail, and it's close to camp. As long as Matt is mindful to keep the group moving, I think we should be fine. (Last time I did it, we had 20 vehicles!)

I think it's doubltful we'll finish Wheeler or Iron Chest in less than a day, so I don't think anyone will be available to do a "half-day" up Chinamans. And, of course, the potluck is that night.

Well, the road trip begins tomorrow morning. I should be arriving in Colorado Springs Sunday afternoon/evening. When I get to my friend's house I will try and log on to check for updates to the Jamboree. I will check here one last time before I leave tomorrow.

Take care and I will see you all next week.

What is the easy trail for Saturday morning? If I can make it that morning that's the trail I want to do.

That would be the Ptarmigan Pass/McCallister Gulch loop off of Shrine Pass (off of Vail Pass) that Lance and myself will be on along with 4 others.
