It was too easy, something bad is going to happen, I can feel it. :-[

For now I'm going to enjoy the experience. Save me a spot at the campsite.

Anyone interested in going this year? I'm trying to convince my gf. If I go we can caravan!
This would be in place of Moab since for me it will be easier to attend OEW being on fri-mon.
I drove to Flagstaff once when I was driving an over the road rig and thought it was so beautiful I said one day I would return! It was snowing!
We just have to look up the ticket sales website!

Post by: fiercextreme on April 24, 2017, 04:26:41 PM: I'll be honest if I can find a couple chaps willing to do Rattlesnake Cyn with me as an alternate to the more difficult John Bull run in May possibly the same weekend then i'll do that.
