Northern Utah Five Mile on February 1st

[ricsrx]

last weekend 1/18/2014, WW was unpassable for us with the water in the upper bowl, and we were leaving just as the snow started to melt, so it wasn't to bad

 

[Troop92]

WW is above Rattlesnake, correct? I wasn't looking at anymore more challenging that Rattlesnake, honestly. Later this year after bumpers/skip plates/sliders, sure...

We'll see what weather is like over the next few days, but I plan on going down regardless.

At 1pm rattlesnake was turning to mud...

thinking about registering the truck so i can go. i keep missing trips..

rather not if its going to be nasty out there though. being that its up canyon type deal, it may still be full of snow.

If it was melting on 1/18, that's two weeks worth of melting to be rained on for two days this week. Friday and Saturday still look okay...

As I said, I'm going to go regardless. The drive alone will be worth it, get out and relax.

[Nappy]

I'll be there. Snow, rain, mud, 100 degree heat wave, tidal wave, tsunami, etc... I need to get out and play.

If you don't, I'm sure we will have space if you want to jump in with someone, myself included.

 

[Nappy]

[spacecase]

It would save you some money until you can wheel more come spring/summer/fall, at the least. Esp if we get out there and conditions are less than ideal.

Will we be meeting you on the trail then, vs at Maverik?

 

[Nappy]

Is it more than an hour to the Eagle mountain Maverick? I thought it was about an hour. But if I need to leave a little earlier, I can.

I'm not sure where you're at in Midvale, but it shouldn't take you more than 30 minutes to get to the Eagle Mtn Maverik. Another 15-20 farther to Five Mile.

 

[Nappy]

I'm grabbing my friend right off 5th east and 7200 so it's only 5 minutes to the freeway. I'll meet ya at Maverick

SO EARLY. GOSH. just kidding.
