In order, from closest trail to furthest of the 4 we mentioned in the planning of this trip are holcomb creek, john bull, gold mtn, dishpan springs. for those that use google earth here is a quick scribble on a route we can take to wheel holcomb creek and john bull. I'm up for wheeling whatever but here is an idea.. http://ruggedrocks.com/stuff/Aug-28-2011-Nissan-Run.kmzfor those that don't want to run john bull, you can continue east on 3N16 after holcomb creek to run gold mtn. gold mtn is not part of my google earth scribble.

There are quite a few guys going up to just wheel for the day on sunday. We haven't discussed a schedule yet, but I'm hoping we're on the trail by 8:30 or so.
Holcomb creek trail isn't very far at all from the camp ground so we'll probably just be leaving from there.

So realistically, what are you thinking of running? Holcomb? JB?

After the fire, on a trail clean/eval run. 33s, but no lockers, and the work to adjust the water run hadn't been done yet so the middle garden was muddy. It was challenging to say the least. Haven't run it since it reopened.
Am having some front diff problems, so I'm on the fence for the run. It's clunking really bad and the short stub axle actually pivots up and down some. The crappy parts house cv with bad tolerances doesn't help the clunk either. Bad enough to where it'll shift enough to cause an air leak in the diff collar. I have the stuff to rebuild it but I just don't want to do it. Sigh.

yes, I think it'll be bset to just meet up at the campsite at about 8:00a? That shoul give us time to get a little organised nad head out at about 8:30 - 9. but the earlier the better. im so down for a night run!
I was thinking the same thing.
