The wife and I may join. I have done the silver island mountain loop, there are lots of good side trails to explore there and lots of interesting geologic formations (volcanic), but not very challenging in the 4 wheel aspect.
Anybody bringing kids??? I have a 3 1/2 y.o. boy that is very adventurous. He sleeps very well on the long drives. We will most likely spend the night in Wendover. Since some are leaving at 7:00 am from SLC, are we all planning to meet at 9:00?
I would say that's the plan. We can meet at the gas station at the start of the trail. I'll post up the exit numbers and stuff this week. Looking foward to having you along.

Scott,

Are we planning to meet somewhere in SLC to caravan out to Wendover? Or is it looking like we're all going to meet in Wendover at 9?

It could be either or both. I'm sure there's somewhere on the way that would be a handy to form up a caravan.

Re: Utah Cruisers Run: Great Salt Lake Ghost Towns, May 18th 2008

I may want to do this spin on the way from Portland to Moab. Probably pick up the group in Wendover (where by the way?).

Action, I'll give you a portable radio.

WhiteRim, we'll be leaving from a gas station at the start of the trail. It's where the Bonneville Flats starts, It's off the I80, exit 4. It's a Sinclair station:

Steve,

I'm thinking of buying a pair of handheld GMRS/FRS units. We wouldn't be able to hear anyone on CB, but I just hate to fork over $$ for such outdated technology as CB...I know I know I just need to get over it.

Re: Utah Cruisers Run: Great Salt Lake Ghost Towns, May 18th 2008

Hey, I should look in this folder more often!!!

I am definitely in as long as my FJ is repaired in time. I will be bringing my son 15, and possibly my daughter who is 11am.

Getting excited! Very cool of MoabRat for organizing this.

If my FJ is not repaired in time...I have a '97 Montero if I can get it licensed/inspected in time. Would that be ok for this run?

DANG! I would LOVE to go! However, I won a trip to Cancun with my work and it is Thursday through Sunday of this week.

NEXT TIME FOR SURE!
