You can print your fire permit from this link http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5346076.pdf

fill it out and its good for all year. You only need to have one in your group but it never hurts to have more.

Also sixstringsteve, i would imagine you already have it but if you want a sweet map get Charles Wells northern california book...you can not get lost with it and it will give you mileages all the time so you will know where you are at and you can watch your time...

Does anyone have a copy of this book that I can borrow?

 

[thefirstzukman]

I'm one more notch to being in on this.... The only thing at this point is I may leave after and I will have to be at work by noon on Monday.

I may trailer part way there also.

 

[sixstringsteve]

I need to be back by Monday too.

I need to be back by Monday too.

Me, three.

Not sure if it's possible to have this much fun anymore on this trail, but this is awesome.

Absolutely. Teressa is coming too, so you and Alex can sit in the back. I'll be putting a bench seat back there with seatbelts and a shade canopy.

You got it, you're on the list. Thanks for letting me know. If anyone else is on the "tentative" list and wants to be on the "committed" list, let me know.

 

[sixstringsteve]

We've got room for about 3 more rigs, the group is getting large.

 

[TJDukit]

Hey steve put me down as committed. Even if I'm allowed to go on my hunting trip this year I think I can skip one year to make the Rubicon.

 

[sixstringsteve]

You got it. Glad you'll be joining us Brian!

Shakedown runs have officially scheduled:


Shakedown Run #1 - Mineral Basin Overnighter (AF Canyon)


Shakedown run #2 - Rattlesnake --> Pony Express Trail --> Rattlesnake/Constrictor Overnighter


Shakedown run #3 - Hanging Tree Trail Overnighter (Ephraim, UT)

 

[TJDukit]

I'm going to try and make as many of these as possible, especially the Hanging Tree trip. With that one I'm going to have to meet up in the moring with this stupid shift I am working but I will be there. Looks like the same thing for any of the overnighters, I really hate this shift.

 

[sixstringsteve]

No worries. You could probably camp saturday night for each of these. I'm sure you'd have a few takers.

If you are bored and have a little time to kill here is a link to some others that are doing the Rubicon next month. If you read between the chit-chat it gives you a little insight.
