Hey fishy.....is there someone at bullhide or that you may run into up there that would know when is the best time (deepest mud) to run the mud loop?

Cause maybe we could get that going too sooner than later.......

I'm sure we can tackle it

I hope to use my Winch

As far as saturday or sunday. I actually thought of the same thing. do it on saturday. so that if you break it! you have enough time to think it over or fix it or something

but it looks like most of want todo sunday.

and as far as the drive Voodoo. you can always crash at my place saturday and drive off to meet on sunday whatever day that will be.

Okay guys here is an update.

by this sunday, I'll try to rap it up with a finalized date and location to meet

Hopefully we can get more people this time. I'll bug everyone from our area and NM see if anyone will be willing to do this run

on a side note I got my Video Camera fixed. so we should have some great videos when we go

Since we have a 50-50 on the dates.

do you guys just want to do the 22nd? for sure?


that way we all have enough time to get ready and do whatever. I'm hopping Aaron could see and all is good

let me know. so that I can work on the details

Is the pass even open right now? Last update Jan 13 showed the summit closed and the gate to the western entrance closed. Snowfall has been above average they are saying.

That sucks. I hope it's open. If it's still closed, we'll need to find somewhere else to wheel.

I'm doing some research on Medano Pass. If any of you have contact info to know if it's open or not that would great and we can know as we get closer to the date.


Thanks for the info... I was goin to check the status next week. might as well start now
