Whispering Pines 4x4 101 Event: 17-May 2008

[Vanillathunder]

I\'ll be there bright and early so we can mark the last of the Orange trail.  We never got around to it since Scott kinda got stuck.

[Scottm]

I\'ll be there Sat.

 I took the kids out for a run Sat 10th, and learned my way around the place halfway decent, we covered all trails at least twice, except for 2 mud holes I didn\'t feel like winching out of.
It\'s drying out a bit since the trim & tag day, and I ran all our marked trails, the only concerns I saw were a couple of spots where ground clearance could be an issue (the ruts are deepening with use) - mostly on the yellow trail section were you turn right off the main entrance.
Also, we didn\'t mark anything on the little playground behind the office - it might make a good easy starter for people to get a little experience before going in the woods, through the Sporting Clays field it is mellow without any paint (or sheetmetal) damaging growth along it.
It could loop back to play on the little \"Mound hill\",  if people want try it, then there is a little wooded loop you could take on the way out. The whole thing could be used with little or no marking.
My .02
In any case, I\'ll be there and will do whatever.

I think we should stick to the plan of running the three trails. The groups can play in the backyard area after we are done for the day.

Lists updated.

See you Sunday, Eric.  I don\'t see anyone else that has expressed interest in convoy....  I\'d lead the way but we\'ve got to get there early to set up.

[etk300ex]

ok I will just head there then

[John]

Hey Mike...


             Since i\'m one of the worker bee\'s for Sat., are u leaving Barnes-n-Noble by 7am, or are we all just heading by ourselves to Lyons Sat.??  I\'ll be more than happy to hookup with you if you are, but no biggy either way...


                                            John...

[MrMindless]

I\'m nowhere near Pittsford and it would be almost and hour out of my way.

If others want to convoy that would be cool but I have faith in club members getting there on their own.  See you all in Lyons at 0800!
