WHAT
I am going to Sedona from Friday morning 10/12 to Sunday 10/13.

There are no planned events. Just a bunch of trucks hanging out, having campfires each night with pot luck style dinners and such as we feel like it.

There are no planned trail runs, however, there are numerous trails in the area as well as hiking.

I plan on driving up Friday morning, biking Friday and then setting up Camp Friday afternoon.

Wheeling or hiking again on Saturday or going into town. Probably either do a Broken Arrow sunrise or sunset run.

Playing Sunday by ear.

Feel free to join me if you like




Here is the thread from LY, about 10 trucks or so and lots of fun camping, hiking, wheeling, etc...

4TH ANNUAL DUTCH OVEN COBBLER THROWDOWN!
On Saturday night, we will remember Connie and Duner as they are the reigning champs but cannot be with us.

Show us your skills with the Dutch Oven!

Who will we give the Golden Rolling Pin away to this year? Let's see what ya' got!





WHERE
FYI - we are going to the same spot we did last October (which is NOT the Sedonafest campsite)

The spot is further east on Schnebly, on the north side of the road and puts us closer to Sedona as well.

www.google.com/maps/pl...111.681147

There is room for 20+ trucks. It's dispersed camping, so first come first serve.

There are no facilities - no toilets, showers, etc... There are some in Munds Park if you need them.

There are no trash dumpsters. TREAD LIGHTLY. Pack out what you bring in.

Please bring a bundle or two of firewood - there are scarce pickings right around the campsite, so you could bring an Ax if you wanted to scour a bit.

Food is all on own for all meals - figure it out. I will most likley be cooking yummy breakfasts and dinners on my grill/stove


IMPORTANT INFO!

Please be aware that technically, a group of more than 25 people needs a permit, rest rooms, etc...

So, we will really need to spread out when we camp since this is not any offcial kind of event, etc....

If there are more rigs than 20, we can spread out to the next good camping area right down the road.

Also, very important not to call this an event, outing, etc... especially when talking to Rangers, Pink Jeeps, etc...

We also didn't plan any trail runs on purpose due to the strict nature of permitting. So please ensure if you do runs, that NO MORE than 10 rigs are with you. Pink Jeeps will report you

Also, please ensure you Tread Lightly. Pack out what you pack in, stay on marked trails, etc...

We will most likely be just fine, but better to be aware of the rules and such and prepare appropriately

Will have to see if I can make it. Hope I can.

Damn I'll be in UTAH that weekend 😬

Only 2 weeks away!

I am sure we will all have different plans for the weekend, but here is what my tentative plan is-

FRIDAY
Get up to camp on Friday around noon, set up camp.
Probably mountain bike in the afternoon - either Flag area or Sedona

SATURDAY
On Saturday, hike in the morning and take advantage of fall colours - probably Locket Meadow or Inner Basin. But early to beat the crowds

Might off-road up on the rim of Schnebly on Saturday afternoon (Hot Loop area), catch the sunset.

SUNDAY
Early Broken Arrow run

Plans are subject to change
Feel free to join me for any part

We got about 10+ trucks or signed up on the Facebook.

Jimbo, CeeFish says he has some stuff for me for you to bring back to PHX

Won't be able to make it. Have some very needed vehicle repairs to do.
