Just curious, what area are you planning on taking the Subaru crowd? I don't recall of a good flat area for them to play in? Either way, it should be fun see them.
i'm taking the truck...

you kidding? my STI will die the first bump it sees...

2 years ago, we did something similar and we made it all the way to the top of hector heights...

I suppose we could put a "honorary toyota" sticker on your rig for the day...

No worries from me!

I have been the honorary "everything" several times since I have never ran a trail with another Isuzu in CA. I have been to HH a few times, but not in the past year or so. Should be good to finnaly get some wheelin in.

Lightbulb 28 Feb HH Day Run arrangements

Great stuff as it seems more people will be coming!

Meet at 10-10:30 am at ranger station on 28 Feb. I have a silver 2003 4Runner, so I should be easy to spot at the ranger station. ENtrance fee for the upper ranch is still $4, I think.
Link for those who have not been to HH.
http://www.hollisterhills.com/directions.html

I will bring 2 FRS/GMRS radios, on channel 4. I think Scottiac will also bring a few radios.

As there is no shop at the upper ranch, bring with all the required food and drink for the day.

As I only have a stock 4Runner, I will stick to moderate trails and obstacles, there is abviously more challenging trails for those with more capable trucks and more experiene. The less experienced guys like myself will look and learn. Obvioulsy shoot some video and pictures .

SO far we have 5 vechiles going:
LevZeppelin, Scottiac, CTapia, myself and Scot F (for whom we will have to get a loaner Toyota badge for his Isuzu), hope I didn't miss anybody. Anybody else please feel free to join.

Lets see the last time I ate on the top of the hill I got in an accident . We tried to stack about 25 rigs in an area for about 10, can you say sardenes?
I really hope it lets up this next week on the rain, I hate mud with a passion . 10:00 sounds good to me, channel 4 frs/cb.
Anyone coming from the north? Stockton/Tracy area.

Hey Scott,

It's art. I am pretty sure Patrick and I will be going plus another friend who doesn't wheel too much.

I was gonna ask if you wanted to meet somewhere? R U gonna come down 680? We could hook up in Fremont and cruise down together.

As well as anyone else who would like to caravan.

Well lets see how many rigs we have next week. I'm sure we can make a plan, so far we have approx 10-12 rigs coming. We might have more, lets see.

If you dont like mud you are in for a world of hurt as I think with the last weeks rain it is already nice and muddy and will take more than a week to clear.

See you next week then.
