There are some cool spots in the power line part just after the lower creek crossing too

I am planning on making it as of now hopefully work doesn’t crap on me

ran the trail yesterday, but only to Waldorf mine. it seemed to be in overall pretty good shape(went the lower way up the river). I did notice that some of the fencing at the mine broke or was intentionally knocked down. It was chilly trying to do a cook out up there when the storm moved in.

I was planning to bring my small off-road trailer so we can load it with trash. It's been a few years since I ran Argentine -- is this a good idea or is it too tight to bring it with? I can shorten the tongue on the trail.

@Hulk not too tight, you can get that anywhere. @Old40Dog used to drag his all around that place, even to his favorite spot between the creek crossings on the lower road, which is the spot @simps80 mentioned.

However, it's likely totally unnecessary for trash purposes... unless @Lastresort576 left a couch up there or something. :)

OK, thanks! Mine is the same form factor as @Old40Dog since we built them together. I mounted Charlie's RTT on the top of it, so I will bring it regardless of whether we need it for trash.

Dang, this is shaping up to be a great run.

I'll instead be at a wedding at the St. Julian. Wee.

Thanks for putting this together Tim!

Well unfortunately we won't make it. Still need to install the rebuilt trans into the 80, and the 4Runner needs to much attention. (n)☹️

We are out unfortunately, we were going to take the 4Runner as the LC currently doesn’t not have a transmission in it but turns out it’s needs some front end work done before we can wheel it 😭super bummed

I thought after you drove my 100 last month you'd be driving your new 200 by now!? :ROFLMAO:

I'm in for Argentine on Saturday, still working on the camping plans but I'm looking forward to a great club trail day!

Went to the top of the pass yesterday. Agreed about the knocked over fencing at mine. Probably a few trees can be cleared from trail edges. Otherwise it was good driving and that was in my mostly stock 2007.

Thinking I might bring the pickup on this one if I have time to fix the exhaust.

Was going to do that yesterday after rotors on the 100 but my dreams were shattered when I realized they aren't free floating and you have to pull the hub.

Is anyone following the weather forecast? Looks like there’s a pretty good chance for it to be unpleasant.

Weather.gov forecast is for snow all day at Guanella Pass and high of 45 degrees. I think we will not be joining unless the forecast improves.
