I will be heading out tonight. It sounds like majority are planning to camp at the base of Bronco Peak Connector?

Camping at Corral Canyon Campground... 1.2 miles past the Four Corners parking/staging area, approx 7.2 miles after you turn off Buckman Springs onto Corral Canyon Rd/Morena Stokes (Valley ) Rd

Wish I could make it, but I can't. Those who are going, have fun and post lots of pictures!

Thanks Carol! This will be my first time there and will be rolling in pretty late. Hopefully I won't have any trouble finding a spot.

Coming in tonight you should be fine. We may be doing some doubling-up tomorrow, depending on who all shows up/stays over... But we'll make it work!

Ham 146.560, CB 34, for whatever it's worth, is the plan...

Thanks for the directions carol! i'll be in super late. I'm hoping before midnight... long drive for me. I think google said 460 miles! And the damn CA laws and trailer speeds... D'oh!

Please bring firewood! We are going to run out tonight. Need more.

I am trying to arrange for a replacement motor and then I will get it in asap after that. I hope to have one ready for install in a couple of weeks. Whatever I get I will likely send the head in for a valve job and maybe replace the rod bearings if they don't look really good. I want to make sure the motor I put in will be reliable for a long time after install.

John... Sorry to hear about the engine. Let us know the date of the wrenching party.
That grade going up to Alpine and after that are quite steep.

Due to work I didn't make it to the event until early Sunday morning.
My friend Bob and I had a great time. He purchased an '00 several months ago and wanted to see what we do during our events.
First time doing 911 and Diamondback. Lots of fun.

I had a great time this weekend. Thanks to the big guys for letting me tag a long up bronco. Sunday was a great run as well.

It was great to see everyone. Been a long time since I have seen a lot of you guys.

EDIT: I would be stoked to stick around until friday or saturday if someone wanted to run bronco connector and the peak. Just saying...

Had a good time Saturday on the bronco run. Only took a couple cell phone pics of kevin.

Great weekend. Awesome weather. Cool peeps. Craft beer. Couldn't ask for more. Had about 15-20 rigs over the weekend I think.

We had an easy run do the outer loop. A moderate run do Sidewinder, Bronco Flats, then Gunslinger. Some stayed behind (or joined up) to do Diamond Back. Then the hard run did Bronco Peak Connector and Bronco Peak.
