Cool! Right on, man. Looking forward to it. I'll post up some details/ times as it gets closer.

Perfect for mid day dune naps then. I don't plan on buying enough for everyone else.

Looking to pick up some new camp chairs. Any recommendations? Thinking about these, but they don't have any cup holders.

Ha ha funny funny Jill!!! Lol That place is gorgeous. I couldn't believe the first time I pulled in there. I was like you gotta be kidding me! Eff our dirt road!

Just called the ranger station and they said there hasn't been a blade run over the road yet and he wasn't sure if they will before Memorial weekend. He said it was pretty wash-boarded and you probably would leave your axles behind. haha Looks like we're going through Kanab and getting in late. .

You've got it backwards, Pat. The first 4 miles will be smooth sailing pavement THEN it will be brutal.

Unless Steve gets there early, nobody is getting there early that is in our group. We will only have the 2 rigs (so far). We'll see. We may just avoid the cane beds road just in case. As for being packed, I'm not too worried about it. We'll find a spot and squeeze in somewhere. I just found the pic that Jodi posted from the Sat morning of last year's Memorial weekend and that was NOTHING like it used to be. If you think that was bad, you should have seen it back in 04/05. You couldn't even drive through from one end to another if you had a big rig. Last year, Sat AM 2006 I think that 4 miles has been paved for a while now. I might try to call.

Well here's why. Last time we took the cane beds road, it was literally in perfect condition. It didn't beat my trailer up at all like previous trips before that one. It cut a about an hour off our travel time. This trip we don't have the luxury of leaving early so it will be late Friday night. I'd like to get there before midnight if possible. If we rolled through Kanab that late in the evening, everything will be closed anyways.

Anyone been down it lately? How is it? I hate beating my stuff up or hitting those soft spots because my trailer likes to sink at the first sight of silt, but it is a huge shortcut going to Coral.

I don't think anyone thought it was just one position.

Let me know if you can make it. I'd say you could carpool up with us, but we're already full. Wish you could go too. Ryan said he might even be able to make it up. Can I borrow your fire tub/ring? Awesome. Make it happen Steve! It'll be nice to have you back, Jay! That means you'll be able to make it back to D more times throughout the season now. There's always other weekends. Maybe we can arrange to do a DDR group trip up to Coral another weekend.

After almost FIVE years, I'm finally making it back up there. Last time I was up there was Labor Day 08. We're heading up for Memorial Weekend. Not sure if I'm bringing my car yet. Depends on if anyone else in our group is bringing one. I may just keep it quads only this trip. I miss riding up there. Anyone else going or thinking about that weekend?

Unfortunately this position is not going to be possible for 99% of the people on here. Terry has done an amazing job over the years and hopefully the BLM will select him again to be part of the Dumont sub-group. I appreciate all he has done over the years.

Bummer dude! There will be another one though. Awesome Right on Jakster. Hope you can make it!

Right on, guys! Sounds like the 16th it is. That works better for me anyways. I'll pencil that date in if everyone wants to make it that day. Looking forward to it.

Nice, Paul. Well it was a great night at the pub with our moms, family and friends. It's almost like Cheers at the that place now. Everyone there knows our names, including the band. haha They are like family now. Both our moms LOVED the band and had a great night. It put a smile on my face.

Just a heads up to those headed to Little Sahara!
