Gonzo, of course. Some of us are "members" and I don't mean dicks.

Is it too late for a new guy to show up and try some of the easier trails or is this a member exclusive event?

CAN'T WAIT! :D :D :D Love a good road trip.

Sounds like the Gonzo is where to meet up each day to get in a group, what time of the morning should we start up?

How's the weather, Neo? Getting warm, should we expect 70's or 80's?

Who wants to do an Easter drive out on Klondike Bluffs trail? It doesn't look too hard to find your way (anybody done it?), moderate trail, and if it's not wet out we can run back through Arches Nat Park on the way out for the scenic route. I wanna be back in Moab around 3pm Sun.

Somebody sounded off earlier that they were from Breckenridge, CO...who is it? I need a ski report!

May 14th through the 18th is when the guys from Canada will be in Moab. Yes, they hired Dan Mick. They have at least 3 H1's going so far. Unfortunately, I am not able to meet up with them. I was hoping to tag along on the April trip after Easter, but that is not looking good either.

BUMMER! Next time for sure! You'll have to at least come out for some CO trails this Summer.

We try to gather around Adam's room at 5AM to get things going.

Most days people head to the diver near the Gonzo at 8AM for breakfast and than between 9AM and 10AM we head out... except when doing Golden Spike. Everyone departs around 8AM for the trail head. LAst time I rolled out of bed about 10AM and caught up though.:D

I hope Alan is going to put the Easter Egg hunt together for us this year. I was really looking forward to Peeps again.

I'm not in Breck, but the ski repot is SPRING LIKE CONDITIONS. Ice in the morning, great late morning through mid afternoon, than to slush toward the bottom.

I've done Klondike. In fact, it was my first trail in Moab. It's very easy. There is one tight spot with a steep decent near the end, that's about it. When you get past that and go the bottom of the trail you head right and hook up with the paved road through through Arches National Park. It's a beautiful drive out thru the park.

weather is looking good should have high 70's maybe low 80's , we have ran on three different trails over klondike bluffs (all easy), its one of the better ways to get into Arches NP ;)

Thanks Tim, that's what I thought we were lookin' at. My kids are geeked for boarding in the mountains, hoping you keep some snow around for us!

Starting to load up toolboxes, parts, beer & gear. New CB installed, all skid plates firmly attached, new head on the H3.

If I wanted to do an impromptu night camping near Fins & Things with the kids, do I need to work ahead of time at getting the permit? Or is that an easy one?

We ran Klondike Bluffs last year for an easy day. It turned out to be a great trail if you follow along with the Guide to Moab UT Trails book. When you get to the large open slick rock sections, there are lots of dinosaur tracks. They will have circles of rocks around them. It was pretty cool! There is also a quick hike you can do that will take you to an overlook. We hiked around those rocks for a while as it was a blast! Also check out Tower Arch as it was well worth the drive and hike.

Should be an easy one. There are a bunch of camping spots along Sand Flats road.

I ordered a spare tie rod a couple of weeks ago and now the Chevy parts guy says they're on back order.. :( He says he will tell them he has an H3 down to see if he can get them... but it looks like I might not have a spare.. :eek:

I've heard issues of them being backordered. :lame: Get the P/N's from him and check some of the online sites like gmpartsdirect.com. If you can't find them, I know several of us that will be there will have some.
