Sunday November 21th:
Play on the way out, Wander westerly through desert seeing some of the attractions along the way.

email sent.  I'll remember to bring my towstrap so I can pull Val's rover out of the sand again...

So how hard core is this run?  Can I run my LJ81 stock, or should I put that rear locker in?

Not that hard core but two things pop into mind. First, it is cold this time of year and the ol' LJ may be a bit frigid. Second, we do quite a few miles and so you would need an iron butt if you are still riding stock.

There are a lot of feature article that can be accessed through our home page and the archive section that will describe in great detail what is in store.

I'd personally love to have you attend! It'd be cool to see your LJ riding around. Maybe I'd get inspired and break out my LJ20... maybe.

Thanks, Eric

Well the LJ would be warmer than my Samurai!    (I would be driving the LJ81 down, not one of the air cooled LJ10's, so heat would not be an issue!)  The cold doesn't bother me, as I'll have a nice sleeping bag, blankets, and may tow a camping trailer behind the LJ (if I can get it done in time!)  I'm planning on taking it up to do Whipsaw this summer; I'll find out how hard my butt is then!  I suppose I could just tow it behind the truck, but where's the fun in that?

I did read the articles, and talked to Kieran about last year's run.  I need to rebuild the t-case and repaint the camper shell, as the old paint is peeling off in sheets, but I'd like to have that all done before Whipsaw anyway.

It is a really fun trip!  I always come home tired, cold and dirty but smiling  .

Is that "but smiling" or "butt smelling"?

[bbagwell]
