Urgent - There is no Rubicon Trifecta curse!
Our precious moderator has had a lapse of memory and in hand cursed Pops (old hiker) from making it to the rubicon.
By H2 Rocks-
"I just spoke with Oldhiker on the phone. He thinks his front differential is blown. He's really bummed out. He definitely needs to be in Arizona this weekend, he's just not sure weather or not the truck will be fixed in time to get back to California to meet us. He said if it is, he's still in!
He also stated the KenP had jinxed him by saying he'd be the first one to run Paragon, Moab, and the Rubicon
Hopefully he can get it all straightened out in time for the trail."
By the holy "moderator"
"Congrats Pops. Currently there's only 3 Hummers that have run Paragon and Moab, Rocks, us and Peter.
You'll take the lead by adding the Rubi."
TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT (and hopefully lift the curse)
I, have been to the Rubicon, and i know i posted a pic here at one point.
I know, I know the curse has been floating around for weeks, and while my appearances here are sporadic these days  I have been searching everywhere for a picture. I lost my camera about a year ago and i'm not sure if the file was in the card that was with it, and I've searched every hard drive i can with no luck. It was on the old forum so if everything that was on the old forum is still around than it should be somewhere.
Anyway i hope this news lifts the curse from pops.
So Ken (OH) get yourself to Rubicon somehow and have a blast.
oh and look out for poop too.

Re: Urgent - There is no Rubicon Trifecta curse!
Just got back from doing the Rubicon from west to east. I can't give you the details, I was only along for the ride. Besides, I was in the neighborhood (Albuquerque, attending my son's wedding.) I figured close enough.
Pete, I remember you going out west, but I thought it was Moab. Was not aware that you did the Rubicon. Did you do it in the same direction, or east to west. How many days did you spend on the trail. My wife and I have never felt or been so dirty. The dust was everywhere.
See you in November.

Re: Urgent - There is no Rubicon Trifecta curse!
Well, i did get to the trail first, i just didn't have my truck.  After hearing about pops' carnage in Moab i just wanted to dispell the curse issue so he'd get his arse over to CA. I wish i could find the pic i (thought) i posted. The outlet for the trail on the tahoe side had a really steep 8' embankment where it met the pavement. I had a picture of me trying to drive up it in a stupid rental car (non 4wd) and the rubicon ohv trail sign next to it.
Anyway a big Congrats to the both of you for conquering the trifecta, I am extremely jealous. The Rubicon really looks like a must try trail, and I really hope I'll be able to attempt it someday. Keep the photos coming they are awesome.
So what is the quadfecta?????
My guess would be, that it lies somewhere in Texas. Any ideas Phil???
