 I would love to sign up again for this event but that website is still telling me I don't have sufficient privileges. Same thing as last year until someone reset something on it, grrrrrr very frustrating. Can you please post the link for the sign up here, maybe that will work?

Just curious who all is going to this and if we should have encampment SCCX again? The Mountain Rendezvous was a hoot and I can't wait for this one!

Post by: steve c on February 01, 2017, 05:29:09 PM
Celt,
Encampment sounds great.  Like MRV, but with more space.

I think everyone should bring firewood. 
Title: Re: 2017 Desert Rendezvous
Post by: steve c on February 01, 2017, 05:30:01 PM
And 9mm pistols.  I'm looking for my first one and want to try a bunch before I buy.

I've already got wood for this trip...

There's tons of room, "saving places" is no problemo.

Last year they did have a shooting area set up.  I got a new coyote rifle to sight in.

I'll bring a Glock 19 for you Steve.  Just eight days away :D

Celt, about six or seven of SCCX's finest will be there.

Sounds like a good time in the making to me. I'm not sure what time I can get down there on Friday, it's going to depend on the family (So read probably late).

Some new developments, looks like it's just me goin down there. I should be able to get there fairly early so I'll try and get a nice level spot and hold some ground for the rest of you guys that are coming in later. I'll most likely be hanging out on 145.535


  PS; Can't wait for the Dutch oven competition. I have completely revamped my new and improved secret recipe!

Sorry Your family can't make it, but glad you'll be out there early.
Level spots are aplenty, about 20,000 acres :D
I'll try to monitor 145.535 as well

PS;  Start that oven EARLY >:D

Looks like I'm going to have to flake on the day trip.  I'm in the process of studying for a important test on Tuesday and I'm afraid to miss the study opportunity. :( :'( 
What a nerd! Study over offroading!  Hopefully the last time.

And 9mm pistols.  I'm looking for my first one and want to try a bunch before I buy.

I don't have a 9mm.  But I am bringing three .45s (pistols) and three .308 rifles.  Since they cancelled the official steel shoot, we will need to move over a canyon or so and set up our own range.  I am bringing steel targets as well as paper.  Happy to let folks try out my various implements of destruction, once I get the rifles sighted in.  It's been so long since I shot the rifles, I need to check them first.  I was hoarding my ammo over the last eight years!  Now I need to make sure I can hit my target at 300 yards.

Title: Re: 2017 Desert Rendezvous
Post by: Celt on February 12, 2017, 12:53:43 PM
Just got home, had a blast with more shenanagens and the nightly Steve Show! As to my recollection everyone had a great time sitting around the fire talking and just in general enjoying each others company. Some damn fine 0100 meals cooked on that skottle by Chef Jordan!!

                                          We don't get together nearly as much as we should!



  The new fun quotes of the trip: Duffman, "If I'm the voice of reason, you are really in trouble"
                                                Hennie, "I wonder what time The Steve Show is going to start tonight"
                                                Jayrat, "That sounds like a good idea" =After Sobe bombs get mentioned.
