2 votes for Devil's Canyon - Let's do it!
I'll be riding solo. Maybe bring a dog.
As for truck counts, I think we have three or so with a hard "YES", so post up and we'll get a good head count for candy.

Are you still in or out? What's your head count too?

Going to have to miss this year. Always had fun on this run, but new job has me working a lot weekends and don’t get off until 6. Have fun
I am in, and I will be bringing the pup. I'm down for Devil's canyon... It fits the Spooky motif.

We got the plague in our household, and I don't expect that we can get out.
Next year!
Next year!

I think I should be able to make it. Possibly bringing my daughters and dog. Don’t think I have ever run this trail

Out. Going to Hudson Gardens Magic of jack o lanterns. How does that take precedence over off roading? Sheesh!

Possibly interested in joining this. I'm a complete greenhorn, just got my 3rd gen t4r 2 weeks ago with the help of two forum members on here one of whom dragged me on the Argentine Pass trip. Looks like the hardest stuff on this trail is more about articulation if the alltrails photos are anything to go on, correct? How long would this probably be. Just as a warning I don't have any equipment for airing up (and really only a cheap gauge for airing down) so I would have to bum air from someone if I did go (I've got a Viair and parts for a 4way system already ordered but there's only a chance the pump alone will arrive by Fri/Sat). My rig did come with some aftermarket lighting but it's certainly not anything amazing. Please feel free to shoot me down if this isn't a trip I'd be cut out for, I won't be offended.
You will be find Christopher. Go have a good time! Both those trails are nothing difficult.

And there will be compressors to air up.

There will be plenty of compressors and people willing to share. We never leave anyone behind.
You'll be fine, everyone has to start somewhere. Come on out and have a good time.
My very first Spooky night run was in 2013, right over the hill from where we'll be on Saturday, I didn't have air or really any recovery gear to speak of at the time. Although that particular night got quite crazy, we all made it out alive and in one piece. You'll get a chance to check out other folk's gear and ask questions and consider what you might be interested in buying in the future.
Other than the 2013 Spooky Night Run, this run is usually laid back and newbie/family friendly.
See you out there!

Glad to see the group growing! @rushthezeppelin: rig sounds suitable. Don't worry about extra lights. Just come out and have fun and ask questions. But get ready to open your wallet when you get home...😝
If your name isn't on the list, you're still welcome to join! Game time decisions shouldn't hold you back. So far I'm seeing no burn ban for Clear Creek County: Burn Bans
But if I'm not looking in the right spot, please correct me! If it stays clear, then we'll have a social fire for dinner.

It's only too late if you miss it.
@DomOfTheDead and I are bringing our portable fire pit and I will be making a tasty treat for everyone.

Once again probably me being a noob here but it's 11 miles of road from the ranger station to the trailhead. I know that road is 45mph limit for a good ways. Is okay to ride that distance aired down?

We're in! Myself, my partner, my daughter, all in the 60.
Not sure what your treat is but it sounds like we should bring what we need to cook our own dinner?
