CB Channel for this event is 4. We will go to channel 5 as an alternate if needed.
Friday:
Listed departure time is 3pm but we may wait a little bit as there may be some members needing help (driveshaft installation, etc) On our way back from Prison Hill we will be driving through Carson City. Gas is cheaper there (+ .35 debit card fee) and there are stores if you wish to pick up supplies.
Saturday:
Departure time 8:00 - 8:30 am. We will be driving into Reno, then East on I-80 to Sparks, then North on Pyramid Highway. We will be stopping at the corner of Eagle Canyon Dr. and
staging at the Chevron gas station on the right. There is a Save Mart grocery store and a Port of Subs (opens at 9am) to buy lunch for the day or other supplies.
Goal is to depart staging area at 9:30am. (Alan's group to Billy Bobs might be staging at the 7-11 across the street. Alan will let us know...)
Sat Evening:
BBQ and Meet & Greet at 4WP in Sparks is a go. I posted 5pm but this will depend on what time we get off the trail and back to town. A little later is okay too. We have the parking lot to ourselves and can use the RTI ramp and rock crawling course.
Sunday:
Plan is to depart campground at 8:00am. We will head towards Lockwood on I-80 after stopping for gas and other supplies. Depending on need we can try and find a grocery store, otherwise grab a lunch at the gas station. Bronco Canyon is also a full day trail ride.
Depending on the time we get off the trail, we can head over to Virginia City to look around, have dinner, or whatever. This is optional.
Other tips: Weather forecast is calling for lots of sun and temps in the mid-80's. We will be in the desert and often times away from shade. Bring water and sunscreen. Bug repellant might be wise as well, especially for Bronco Canyon.
Also don't forget to bring your camera!
