    Most people use knobbies there, but most people use knobbies everywhere else too. There are some real rocky sections where the trials tire willl shine.
    Overall they hook up good and work well IMO. You won't be disappointed, especially if that is what you are accustomed to.

    Finally caught up on all the info in the thread and answered my own question regarding skill levels. Camp II it shall be. Plan on driving up after work on Friday and riding Saturday/Sunday. Looking forward to some future great memories!

    No reason not to bring the family. I think there is even a training/beginners loop at the camp area. Plenty of easy trails.

    Glad to hear it, Greg! :thumbsup: I'm looking forward to seeing you again :)


    My plans are a little up in the air, as I'm waiting to hear what Eric's schedule will be. Ideally we'd be showing up early Friday and leaving late Sunday or early Monday. We'll be camping in the Pleasure Palace camper van with a trailer :D

    Hope Eric can make it. I like how he throws that 690 through stuff I can only hope to ride someday!

    I probably will be rolling in on Thursday too. So it's CampII?
    Maybe we can get a crew together to go cut some firewood.

    This is getting big.... maybe we should change staging areas :excuseme:

    Camp II is my favorite cause it offers spots with some privacy, but its not going to the best spot for a huge gathering. We'll probably use every camp spot there and then some.

    Should we move this to 2510? Then we'll have a big area where everyone is not segregated. And we'll have the huge open field to let the kiddo's ride in with no blind spots.

    -Yeah?
    -Nay?
    -Dont care, just want to ride?


    Xcuvator,
    I'm in for the firewood expedition. I'll bring a saw and axe, but I dont have a pickup. There's always lots of seasoned wood out in the dez :thumbsup:

    I have a nice little pile of firewood that I will throw in the trailer. It has been fairly dry lately so we will need to check the BLM burn status.

    I would love to make this ride but I am not going to be able to get the time off to make it happen. You all have a blast!

    Burning in the firepits shouldn't be a problem. The last couple of times I was there I saw many campfires.
    A call to the NFS Fox Butte office is what I should do though, to find out about cutting areas and if a permit is needed. ??

    Since nobody seems to care too much I think we should move this to camp 2510. Much bigger, no designated/segregated camp spots and the huge field next door is great to keep an eye on the kids. The 3 main camp spots are within a mile of each other and camp 2510 has more 'main' trails running through it, so it makes for good trail access.

    I've cut lots of wood out there and never had any issues. Even with the Sheriff in sight. Not saying it was perfectly legal, but he wasn't concerned in the least. I thought we were doing good by burning potential hazardous tree fall :D

    I would agree that a large single site will be better so that we can all be in proximity for the intense fire racing portion of the get together. :cheers:

    Can't wait to meet everyone, have a day off, and ride ride ride.

    2510 Information

    If you take a look at the large map linked there it shows 2510. You can get to it from China Hat road if you want, instead of the directions they give below. You will also see the coordinates near the bottom of the map for you GPS users.

    I'll hang paper plates saying 'Husky' and an arrow at any intersections. Unless someone else does it before I get there.

    Its not hard to find.
