CLOSED

CLOSED we will not be taking any more waiting list sign ups. We think there could be 1-2 more drop outs in this group so those on the Waiting List will most likely be able to go and should plan accordingly. Between the two groups we want no more than 30 jeeps so this puts us slightly over our planned number hope those of you wanting to go understand.

What the heck,last of those waiting here's your chance to go


I know there some waiting to see what happens as we get closer to the event but these events fill up fast.This why i post this event early because something always comes up.

After Rubicon dinner will held at:
Casa Ramos
6840 Green Leaf Drive
Placerville,Ca.95667

**Edit by sm_rubi**
Each member on the going list will receive a PM and MUST respond in order to remain on the list. This is being done to ensure we optimize the number of people on the run. Nobody likes having people drop out at the very last minute which doesn't allow someone else on the waiting list to go so please take a look at the PM and RSVP.

Run requirements.
Reminder of the requirements:
2DR 35's and Lockers
4DR 35's and rear locker
Fire Extinguisher
Tow strap and tow points
Winch

Spill Kit

HOTEL RESERVATIONS:

For those who want to stay with the "caravan" from So Cal, we've decided to go with round trip to Placerville or Pollock Pines (Pollock Pines is 15 miles closer to trail head) - - recommend Pollock Pines first choice and use Placerville as back up if the other sells out.

We will all meet up at same place (probably gas station) anyway before we head to the trail head so if you prefer one over the other, go for it. The plan is to drive early AM on the 7th to South Lake Tahoe (drive will be long and cold if you are sans doors). When we get off the trail on Friday we will be close to Pollock Pines and Placerville.

Plan on arriving no later than Sunday, July 6 one night. Back again Friday, July 11.

We'll have at least one hotel room we can split the cost of to store doors if you choose.

Looks like Placerville is "pet friendly" not sure about Pollock Pines. Pollock Pines has outside entry and Placerville does not.

Pollock Pines hotel
Pollock Pines Hotels | BEST WESTERN Stagecoach Inn | Apple Hill Hotels

Placerville Hotel
Placerville hotel | BEST WESTERN PLUS Placerville Inn | Placerville hotel

Rates are comparable at both. Best pricing is AAA or Military discount.

I'm in! Loved my first trip to the Con last year with the JK group, would love to run it in reverse and meet new peeps. And going down Cadillac hill sounds like fun to me.
