Goatfest, unofficial thread.

Flight delays have me stuck in Chicago presently, but still plan to arrive late tonight. Hoping to make it out in time to set up Thursday evening, really hoping before dark.

we might get out there around the same time. look for the white chevy van towing a tan heep with pink steering on 35's.
 
Thanks just not sure if I'll bring the RV or the Van. I wouldn't want to drive into a bomb crater friday night in either vehicle!

There is very few bomb craters on the west side of the lakebed...most of them are on the east side. You can sort of see them in the map you posted. We'll be just left of the 'A' on the map as Boone road enters the lakebed.
 
I hope we don't leave any more "bomb craters" They do make good fire pits.!

David is in the air now and we should be out Thursday late.
 
Woo hoo!! The buggy runs and moves. Something is weird with the steering, but it works. I'll be there tomorrow.
 
Any chatter about whos running what trail and what time? I'm planning on making it out early Sat morning if my back gets better.


Looks like a play it by ear thing as far as trails. Have to ask around and hook up with people. Runs usually take off around 9ish, but you'd need to be figuring it out before then.
 
Who all is DRIVING their heep out there?

Any caravans?

ill be driving mine out. hoping to leave San Diego (east county) early afternoon friday.

hoping to get there before dark friday, not too hopeful on that though.
 
Im leaving Compton at 11 am Friday morning. Stopping in corona to pick up my son and headed up the 91 to the 215 to the 10 and up around Yucca.
 
I'm caravaning with I, Me, and Myself from vegas friday night. Since our radio isn't working quite right, we plan to have several good conversations and arguments with ourselves.


Took me a second since i been up all night workin on the heep, but that made me laugh pretty good.

Prolbably because im borderline nuts so i can relate.
 
got my jeep together, however i have a chattery howling noise when i let off the gas when rolling. it's quiet under load. guessing i jacked up a ring gear. yay. going to investigate, hopefully i can get it figured out in time.
 
I'll be leaving from Carlsbad, hopefully 3-ish Friday, doing 78E/15N/79N/10E/62N/247NE.

I'll try to remember to put on my antenna & turn my CB on. If so, I'll leave it on Ch 14, unless that's got one of those "400lb 55yo I still live with my mom in the boonies" asshats blabbing away on it with the booster. If so, I'll bop down to Ch. 4. If that's screwed up too, I'd go for Ch 24. Keep it in the "4's".

Cell phone's spotty out there, but better than it used to be. I'm on Verizon, and get signal probably 75+% of the time on the lakebed. Mine is a dumbphone, so I have no idea on 4G, etc., however I wouldn't recommend tyring to stream porn or YouTube videos...
