IC Chapter Run Uintas August 11-13

[DrMoab]

I only put these dates down to satisfiy everyone. I am going to try and get out of work on Friday and stay through the weekend.

Right now the plans are not in stone.

It might just be a relaxing trip to get out of the heat.

More details to come.

[DrMoab]

So???? Where is the interest here guys? I know lots of you want to go..you have told me.

My wife just informed me she got Friday off work so I am good for Fri-Sun.

Come on....who else is going???

[slider]

I have been wondering the same thing. you know i will be there. how about some input on camp in our camp grounds.

I talked to Dave and he was up for that. Personally with a bike race up there that weekend I have a feeling it might be hard to find a public place big enough to fit us all.

one vote here for your camp spot.

[slider]

It doesn't take a bike race to make it hard to find a nice place to camp. I am franticly trying to get the jeep ready to go. oh i guess this would be a good time to ask if anybody has any objections to having a zee-jay in the group???

Gifton shows up in his Why? Jay. Dead eye, Bryon and Jeremy are likely to show up in their cheerleader jeeps so I guess a true soccer mom jeep should be allowed.

At least it doesn't have doors :D

[slider]

It's foootbawl not soccer!! anywho, if i can get the t-case shifter to work right. (i think the trans mount is wasted) it should be in good shape. if not i always have ol' green. (now i'm pushing my luck).

[Clint]

I'm interested. But need more info. Im trying to get Friday off. If not I'll cruise up straight from work. Fri-sun.

[DrMoab]

What info would you like? I think right now the plans are to go camp....get out of the heat and wheel a little bit.

My cousin and I have talked about two possibilities for wheeling. One is take off straight from his camp spot...head up the chalk creek road and Head over toward Whitney Rez.

The other is to go up toward Lym Lake and over the top to the Elizabeth Mt road and back down.

XJBanker has shown some interest in hitting an old turn of the century Saw Mill that is up in that area also.

[slider]

i had a thought of maybe doing both. we could get to the mountains via chaulk ck. and end up at table top. don't know about everybody else but we like to spend as little time as possible on paved roads. if it were to rain the chaulk ck road is fun because it becomes a river.

[Clint]

Where's the camp spot? You going to stay in 1 place the whole time or move camp spots as you go? You going up early friday or in the evening? Whats the general area? I have not much much time in the Unintah's. Mostly around Trial lake and I don't even think its in the Unintahs :)

The camp spot is on private property up the Bear River Valley right on the river under some huge cottonwoods. Its about 15-20 miles out of Evanston Wyoming and we would be camping there every night.

I would let him give directions because he knows the area better but its a really nice spot.

[slider]

first you get on hwy 150 s. go to mile post 9 turn right on to county rd 157. go 4 miles (south) you will see a big sign that says myers ranch.(right hand side). on that road go almost 1/2 mile turn left. (white gate) go another 1/2 mile. turn right (there is a sign that says authorized personel only) turn right there we are at the end on the right. we will camp there. it is right on the bear river. my family will be camping there the whole week. it is nice because it isn't far to town if someone needs fuel or supplies. i can post gps if needed. let me know.

[DaveW]

Who is going up Friday and what time. Don't want to be setting up camp on the wrong private land:)

Currently we are planning on going up midday Friday through Sunday.

Are there any tiolet facilities? (have to ask)

The trails up around lilly lake will be closed but you can go up higher over elizabeth pass. There is the old saw mill, swedish village and table top that looks down into the blacks. None of the trails are hard, it is really a scenic trip. If poeple want to take canoes, there are a couple of little lakes and the blacks that you can float down. The lilly lake area is better fit for 4 wheelers anyway on the good trails. It looks better and is cooler higher up.

Chaulk creek road to whitney to lym lake and so on...would be a pretty long drive.

Based in the descriptions Lym lake, elizabeth pass/mnt, old saw mill, swedish village and table top seem to be in the the same general area. That would be a good bunch of thing to see.

That night I probally will be off at 8 unless I can work a trade. I'm trying very hard... FRS? I have a CB...

[Clint]

I'm sure someone there will have a cb. if you can't find us we can monitor the radio for you. it is not hard to find us. there isn't that many roads in the area.


We'll have to see. I'm still tryin to get it all figured out. But I will be there for sure, just not sure at what time :)

I don't even know if I can get off Friday yet. If I can I might go up early morning. Either way we can find you Clint. I will have my radio on. As long as Chris doesn't need to find me we should be ok.

[Clint]

No worries. I think I saw some GPS coords, should be able to handle it :)

[XJBANKER]

I will be leaving sometime after 6:30pm. I am triong to convice matt to go as well.

[SCW]

I'll go with my son, but I can't leave till later on Friday and I don't really know the area. I do have a GPS however :D I'll caravan with anyone else who is leaving later on friday, I'll be able to head out at about 4pm or so.

Looking forward to some fishing and camping.

[XJEEPER]

Basement project just got the fast track......I'm out. :tear:

[Brad M.]

This may be a dumb question, so sorry if it is, but what can I expect for drive time from Bountiful to the camp spot roughly? I've got some flexibility with work and could leave a little early if need be on friday to get up there in time to pitch the tent in daylight. Just not quite sure when to leave. Also would be willing to caravan with anyone wanting to.

[stewie]

well, i finaly had enough time to realy check the boards after my trip to AZ. im not worried about not getting the time off work (wish i had to worry though) only problem is a baby shower on sunday. my side of the famdamnly finaly gets to meet the wife. i guess that means i have to go. i would love to wheel sat though.

Bryan have you been west of HWY 150 not sure if these roads have any thing good on them
http://www.fs.fed.us/r4/wcnf/maps/travel/summer/Evanston_Mtn_View-TVL-Final_both_smaller.pdf

catching road 416 just before provo falls to meet up with road 137 and go around the back side of murdock mtn looks like fun to me
http://www.fs.fed.us/r4/wcnf/maps/travel/summer/Kamas_TVL_Final-15_dist.pdf

I'm just looking for some thing new and would like to stay in the high pine forest

[DrMoab]

You dummy. I told you we had thought about going up to Whitney Res. That is all on the west side of the HWY.

What do the rest of you want to do?

Bryon, Brian and I have all been to Lym Lake several times. Although I wouldn't mind finding something new I know several of you have not been up in that area and It probably has some of the best views around.

I am up for anything but want to do whatever the rest of the group wants to do.

OH yeah Bryon.....thanks for the internet access again. :D

I'm up for anything. I have never been up in that area. I like scenery and I like wheeling.

I'm coming up Friday night after work so far. My Grandpa lives in Evanston so I think I'll crash there Friday night and meet up with you folks Saturday morning. Then camp Saturday night.

Lets get a roll call to whose for sure coming??

[stewie]

i am a go for sat only as my mum flys in on a friday red eye and a baby shower on sunday. who else is up for sat only and or a convoy up?

mudock basin wouldn't be a bad ride. there are some nice lakes down in the bottom of the drainage. road 416 is just rough enough to bounce your teeth out. also it is grown in with trees and you can't see out very well. it would probly be better to just get off hwy 150 at road 137. we will have to see if anyone else is intrested in making this trip..

Murdock basin is pretty much dirt roads. The very small resivour on that end of the duchesne tunnel is nice with finger sized fish. Bring your light weight gear.

The last time I was all the eway back to Marshall/Hoover Lake only the last hundred feet of road required 4wd. That was due to ruts dug when muddy. Most of those lakes are a nice place for a quite lunch.

[XJBANKER]

My wife and I are going to come up Friday night and leave Saturday night. It has yet to be determined if we are going to camp or stay at our Cabin in Uinta Lands.

Right when I go make my plans public..they change again. I'll be there Saturday morning. Any idea what time you guys would be heading out on the ride that day?

[xj4moab]

That is my idea there really isn’t much out there that could even challenge a stock jeep so I was looking for a good scenic trail.

[DrMoab]

I don't care what trail we do, how we do it or who we do it with.

All I know is I am taking my guns, maybe a beer or two (for SCW, he deserves one) and my lawn chair.

Work sucks and I am so looking forward to just relaxing.

[slider]

ok. just another thought on where to go. i have talk to ryan and gordon (he works with me). seems like lym lake is the popular choice. we were considering a backwards lym lake ride. we would go the the bottom of table top first and work our way down. if we got to the bottom of the lym lake road early enough, we could also go up into where the old bob's lake used to be.

[DrMoab]

On the Forest Service Map it shows a road going from the Bobs lake area over into the West Fork of the Blacks fork canyon. Is that a real road or an ATV trail?

I don't know if there is a road or not. it has been a looooong time since i was up there. the last time i was there was on a snowmobile. we might have to go up and see if there was a road.

I think just for old times sake we need to do a night run Friday. :D

We still need to take care of that little issue.

We could place my jeep out at the highway and another jeep on the road that turns to your place Brian. That would take care of the issue.

What is the fishing like by the camp site?
What is the best bait/lure?
I've got a young'un that want to fish.

The lakes are usually good for power bait or worms. Small flys too.
The last time I fished a river up there was years ago on blacks fork with rock rollers.

the fishing right at camp depends on the day. sometimes its good and somtimes you can't even get a bite. red rooster tails seem to work good. sometimes you can even catch them with your hands.

Channel 34, gotcha!

Hopefully, we can change over from black to RED this weekend!

Nice to see another new face!

I will let my cousin answer for sure but your dogs should be fine. Last time I was up there, there was about twenty of them running around.

dogs shouldn't be a problem. i have two of my own. in the worst case we may have to quarantine (probly not spelled right) them. usually they are ok.

[SCW]

I can get away a little earlier on Friday, maybe 3-4pm. I'll be taking my daughter who wants to do a little fishing, so I'll stop in Evanston and pick up an one-day license.

If there is not a convoy arranged for Friday afternoon we should get that done, maybe meet at a parking lot or something?

Brian...Don't you have a big sign out by the dirt road that turns into your place? I have that big NAXJA banner we could hang up somewhere to let people know where to turn.

if people can find the county rd.( it is #157at mile post 9 on hwy 150) we can hang the banner at the lane (4 miles down cr #157) from there the wife will put out signs to guide everybody in. if anybody gets lost before 5:28 pm they can call me at the shop.307-789-3151 ask for service i will answer. i will talk them in over the phone. it really isn't that hard to find us. if you get lost ask someone where brian and tomilynn are at?? hicks are bad for that.

by the way what kind of dogs are they? (i know they have 4 legs, 2 ears and a tail)ha ha ha. i have a big healer that thinks she is a lap dog and a jack russell that is almost deaf and blind in one eye. they usually don't mind other dogs.

Cuma is a loveable Blue Heeler, getting really socialized. we saved him at the Humane Society.
Lakota is a Corgi mix, she will lick ya to death if ya let her. very social LOL. also saved her at the HS.

tick is a red healer mix ( female) i don't think we'll have any problems. i will leave my dogs home if needed. since it is just a 30 sec drive. we'll have to see. anyway i think we will have a good time. bring your dogs and we'll make due.

[DrMoab]

hicks are bad for that. (have to know everybody elses business)
Glad you said it. Now I don't feel guilty for feeling it. :D

[Clint]

Shouldn't that be, In Tow Clint?

:D:D


Hey now be nice. That Ujoint problem was due to a bad outer shaft! Isolated incident. Apparently I cannot spell or type well while at work.

[quote=DrMoab]All I know is I am taking my guns [quote]

I've got an old skeet thrower. Hasn't been used forever but should still work ok. Anyone up for that? We'd have to round up some clays and guns but something tells me that won't be hard to do...

I should be able to leave around 6-7pm friday night, would be interested in doing the night run and have to come back home on saturday night. The jury is still out on whether or not the wife and daughter will make it. Will possibly be linking up with another newbie and/or anyone else leaving around that time that wants a white XJ in tow. :)

Thanks Jeremy for posting these..

This is my attempt at maps showing how to get to the camp site from Evanston . Slider will have to verify the accurracy.
I hope the images show up. That site is blocked for me.

This on shows the route in green from Evanston to the camp.

the maps are fine. the only thing it doesn't show is the last turn to the right. there is a green gate here (it is open all the time)and there is a sign that says authorized personel only. ( we are authorized) we are only about 200yds down that road on the right. my wife said she would try to get signs up along the way.

[Clint]

How far down the 157 road are we? (mileage wise)

[DaveW]

About 4 miles...

first you get on hwy 150 s. go to mile post 9 turn right on to county rd 157. go 4 miles (south) you will see a big sign that says myers ranch.(right hand side). on that road go almost 1/2 mile turn left. (white gate) go another 1/2 mile. turn right (there is a sign that says authorized personel only) turn right there we are at the end on the right. we will camp there. it is right on the bear river. my family will be camping there the whole week. it is nice because it isn't far to town if someone needs fuel or supplies. i can post gps if needed. let me know.

I have not decide if I am going to Camp or stay at our cabin, if we stay at the Cabin I will be coming to meet you guys in the morning. If I come then, I will be coming down the chalk creek road. When i get to the intersecting road I turn north and then how far is it to where you are? I just cant decide between a warm bed or sleeping on the ground in the tent. If anyone wants to follow me up friday night they are more than welcome to and my wife and I will either go straight to the camp or drop you off at the road that takes you right to where everyone will be.

[DaveW]

Ryan I will be caravaning up to camp.

We will be leaving Friday about 1:00 PM to head up to camp.

Anyone who want to tag along is welcome.

[DrMoab]

I am going to try and hang that naxja banner we have up by the green gate heading into their property. If you guys miss that thing you are blind.

sound like ryan and davew will be the first ones there. we had a slight change in plans, shortie got called on a trip and she won't be back until fri around 2:00.ryan if you guys are earlier than that, stop at the shop and check with me. i will find out how long she will be and if needed i'll explain where to park everybody. i don't think there would be a problem hanging the naxja banner at the gate.

[JeeperG]
