I think we should plan a clean up trip. If we can all round up some large magnets, we can get all the nails off teh trail if we walk it a couple of times. As for the engine block, maybe someone with a truck would be willing to take it down if we all lift it in.

There is nowhere left to hit dirt by me and I think we shoudl be as active as possible in cleaning this junk up. Maybe we canmake it our first stop on the way to a short day trip?

How about next sunday? the 30th?

Ryan, we're talking about an engine block, not Mikey's Exo-cage.
I can't see it weighing more than 500 lbs.

HAHAHAHAHA - you crack me up Matt. I was just picturing the fartruk packed mexican-style full of hippies. Awesome.

Mikey- at least your exo cage stays attached better than my rear shocks. hahaha

I'm free sunday if you guys can make some time. Shouldn't take too long and doesn't sound too far.

Does anyone know where this place is?

If enough of you jump on board, I can use our new handy-dandy email list to inform the others.

You DO know that some of us will be otherwise occupied with our rigs that day, right Seth

Either day next weekend is totally cool.

Maybe Ryan thought you meant this Sun 4/23 instead of 4/30. I'd like to check out this area to see what's up there. 30th sounds good to me, anyone say how to get there yet?
