I was wondering what the group consensus is on accommodations for this year's run? I was thinking about switching from Harrah's to the Aquarius if I can get a decent group rate.
Whatever everyone is good with, I'm good with.

There are babies in the water at Harrah's.  Aquarius might not have that problem... lol

Dumb question, to appease my OCD need to plan far ahead and also the need to plan out leave.  This run is Saturday, Sunday, Monday.  So, meet Saturday morning at the beginning of the road; drive Saturday, camp; drive Sunday, camp; and drive to hotel on Monday and stay Monday night?  With the intentions of heading back home Tuesday morning?

Correct,

Last year I arrived in SD at 11:00pm Monday night (I work Tuesdays)

Since were getting close to the trip I wanted to throw out a couple of suggestions. Since we all know how cold it can get out there I'm asking everyone to try and bring four bundles of wood and if it's possible to get hardwood even better. I know some are limited on space so please do what you can. I'll see if I can get some Manzanita as that burns super hot. I want to ensure we can have a hot enough fire to keep everyone warm out there. It looks like we are going to have a great group this year again and I'm really looking forward to this. The help and support everyone lends putting this together makes it all the better. I'll update on the hotel reservations soon...

Didn’t see it in the post, what time are you planning on hitting the trail from Afton Canyon Campground on the 13th?  Trying to figure out logistics on leaving Vegas the 12th or 13th. 

We will bring some mesquite and olive wood.

 Since we have a strict time hack and adhere to a very stringent pre-run protocol and inspection, I would suppose we will leave when guys get up, make breakfast and pack up. I would imagine sometime around 1000 AM but if you aren't there by then we will wait around for you. If you come out the night before that will work just fine too as we generally have a fire going and everyone hangs out for some pre-run fun. Thanks for haulin some wood!

 So for hotel reservations I was able to secure a group rate at The Golden Nugget. Part of my reasoning is they have some good restaurants right there Saltgrass Steakhouse (Bid'ness casual attire so I guess Carhart's and mud may be frowned upon), Claim Jumper, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. onsite deli and a Starbucks for you triple frappe-whippacino extra frothay kinda guys. Room service is from Claim Jumper but the deli is open 24/7. They gave us reserved free VIP parking in their parking structure for our vehicles. We won't have to lug stuff too far. The rate was quoted as $35 per room plus $12.50 sales tax the state initiated last year so $47.50. I'll PM everyone the code to use for your reservations. They are going to put us all close together which will be nice. Everyone is responsible for making your own reservations there and any bills you may incur. If you have any issues with the reservations PM me as I'm the POC with the hotel and will try to get any issues straightened out but I do not foresee any.

  Giddy up guys this is going to be a fun trip!
