Thanks for the info @Beach Boy for Friday.

I've been mulling it over, working longer than necessary lately, and I'm not expecting anything big to come up. So I'm going to flex my time and head to Moab with others Thursday afternoon :D

Sorry if anyone was planning on caravanning Friday with me. If anyone was, please let me know. I'll totally hang back and caravan on Friday if it helps anyone.

Two quick questions:
Would extra gas be good to bring? 5gal? 10gal? 15gal?

Does anyone know what the campfire situation is out there?

Allen
Extra gas, gas is not a problem out here, so no. I have a firepit which we will be having nightly fires.

@Ann and I will arrive Friday by about 6 pm. Our currently plan is to do some day trip to the Needles district on Saturday (probably Lavender Canyon) if I can get a permit. We will call on Friday. We will leave Sunday morning.

@Beach Boy Thanks for your continued generosity!

UPDATE: @Ann talked to the NPS ranger today and we were told there would be no issue getting a permit if we called Friday. The ranger also said Lavendar Canyon is also beautiful right now. If anyone wants to come with us we would welcome others. We may stay out in the field Saturday night (Beef Basin?), or come back to Brian's. That is still TBD.

Those leaving Thursday......
Caravan? Everyman for himself? Head start for the non V8 cruisers?? 😁😁
Thinking we meet at the Kum & Go across the street from the dino lots off I70 around 3:30. Gives everyone a chance to fuel up, snack up, and hit the road.
Wheels up and headed west by 4pm.

No need to wait on us.
If you want to arrive earlier do so.
I don’t think we will be there before 11pm Thursday night.

I'm good with meeting at 4pm tomorrow (thursday) at the Kum&Go. Unfortunately work won't allow me to hit the road earlier.

I have a truck mounted mobile ham (normally have it on 146.460MHz), an HT ham, and two GMRS/FRS walkies. I'm happy to lend the HT and walkies if anyone is interested in trying them out or need comms. Just let me know.

Copy about coffee. Thanks again! Appreciate the offer @Beach Boy, I'm planning to bring a large mason jar full of cold brew.

Allen
