I’ve been to HTT three times this year (once as a Bush Eaters sanctioned run and one with some Slick Rock Punks). This time I really wanted to get a few specific buddies down there to check out this awesome trail. There were also a couple others that wanted to get some revenge for the trip we took earlier this year, and some who heard how awesome the trail was and couldn't pass up the opportunity to come camp/wheel/hangout on a wicked trail. the weekend started with everyone either deciding to campout or to come meet up on Sunday morning. I'd been following the Rubicon shakedown run activity and was debating whether we should tag along, possibly even later in the day if we had enough peole wanting to go that late. It just so happened that attendance for our group would be better for a Sunday ride, so that’s the idea we ran with.... plus that helped us get the camping in order for Sat night too!
We camped out at Rock Religious’s house and had a great time (big thanks to him and his family for having us)... As we parked our trailers we caught the RME member Maverick before he loaded his CJ8 up on the trailer. He and his son were smiles from ear to ear from how much fun they had on the trail that day. Ahhh, it made us all eager for what was to come the following morning. Everyone seemed to get camp set up nicely and a bit of grub in our guts before we started the campfire. After that it was all over as the stories around the campfire continued till 2am. Our meeting place was maverick gas station at 9:30am and it seemed to be a perfect amount of time to wake up, do breakfast, load the camping gear and go meet everyone. I think we waited till almost 10am and then headed to the trail head. By the time we got everyone unloaded and the spares situation we hit the trial by 10:45am. It was a bit of a later start than we expected, but we knew it was going to be a longer day with a group of 8 and only two of us have had our rigs through there before. It def paid off in the long run that we took our time as the 8Lug 42" spare I brought was used by time we were on our way out the top of the trail... and having the BBQ with us helped to keep us nourished on the such a long jaunt.
