If you don't see a particular trail on a particular day, that means we aren't running it. Attached is the worksheet that shows the matrix in rows and columns, might be a little easier to visualize. It also shows which specific trails we aren't running and rig count for each trail we are running.

 

[ScaldedDog]

Hey Jeff. I figured the Redline guys were handling BTR on Thursday, but if you need a gunner, I'll do it.

Mark

 

[MountainGoat]

I'm fine with gunning Arches on Thursday. However, leading Dome Plateau on Saturday is going to be tricky. I have never run it.

 

[Blindranger]

I see that I am leading Fins & Things on Friday and Brian wilson is gunner. Any chance Brian would want to switch roles? I've never actually run Fins before Im totally cool gunning Elephant Hill on Saturday.

 

[Hulk]

Jeff, I have to bail on my Saturday run. Family obligations are forcing me to bug out on Saturday morning.

 

[Inukshuk]

Nice.

Andy - good thing we pre-ran Hells Revenge at night last year. Think we can do it forwards.... he he

 

[Fishy]

I can possibly gun Hells on Saturday for Matt or even PS or DP if no one else is available. I have some other magazine obligations that I'd need to try and move around though.

Use me as a last resort please.

I've ran dome plateau about 4 times and I still get confused by all of the chris crossing and options. Best way for someone that has never ran it is to plug in every coordinate from wells book in the GPS and have a good map of the area. Technically easy trail though. Stock 4x4 with tiny tires all day.

 

[AimCOTaco]

Yep, and I'm nearing mother-ship lighting levels as well, should be a blast!

I have a full GPS track I'm happy to share. I pioneered the route for CM

I have gps tracks of just about every CM trail. Not just points, full tracks.

 

[Romer]

Jeff, I can gun for Daniel Thursday on metal masher if you can move me to Jax Trax on Saturday. You said you were going to put me in on Thursday, but I don't see it as a trail

 

[Rzeppa]

I see that I am leading Fins & Things on Friday and Brian wilson is gunner. Any chance Brian would want to switch roles? I've never actually run Fins before Im totally cool gunning Elephant Hill on Saturday.

Sure, I will switch you both now. Brian has lead it before. Generally when I see a committee member on a trail I use them as leader first.

 

[Rzeppa]

I'm fine with gunning Arches on Thursday. However, leading Dome Plateau on Saturday is going to be tricky. I have never run it.

Any chance you can prerun it? Or I can ask Scott Howe. I had put him in as gunner; he's Wasatch and is gunning the Swell. I'll ask him if he knows it.

 

[Rzeppa]

Jeff, I have to bail on my Saturday run. Family obligations are forcing me to bug out on Saturday morning.

Okay, thanks for the head's up. I'll pull you and look for another gunner. Thank you for all you do for Rising Sun and TLCA Matt!

I may need to take you up on that. I was thinking of having to lead Sevenmile on Sat. I have run it once before but don't know it well enough to lead it cold.

 

[Rzeppa]

Jeff, I can gun for Daniel Thursday on metal masher if you can move me to Jax Trax on Saturday. You said you were going to put me in on Thursday, but I don't see it as a trail

There weren't enough people who signed up to run Jax Trax Thursday to burn a leader on it. I have you down on Flat Iron on Thursday and I originally had you as leading Poison Spider on Friday but I ended up pulling a couple people off that and it is down to just 3 rigs so I am probably going to cancel that trail for that day and move people elsewhere. You had asked for Fins on Sat but we didn't have enough sign up to run that trail that day.

Moving targets....

 

[Inukshuk]

You'd have no problems. Happy to share the tracks and discuss the route.

 

[jps8460]

I should be in town around 9-10a on wed and would run dome quickly for a pre run if Dan or other potential leader was up for that. Might be tough to get back before the drivers meeting though. Daniel shared the traditional CM tracks with me, but I'm pretty familiar with the fun route on that trail (arch and lunch overlook).

 

[Rzeppa]

You'd have no problems. Happy to share the tracks and discuss the route.

Thanks Daniel - I don't have the Well's book in front of me, but does anyone know if it is in the Well's book? Like I said, I've done it once before and have a vague idea of the area. That was about 5 years ago I think. I'd prerun it Wednesday except I have trail changes to deal with and don't have a big enough chunk of time to do any trails Wednesday.

 

[Rzeppa]

Just got off the phone with brian Wilson, he has to bail early and can't lead Poison Spider on Saturday, so now we have a new need. I double checked the roster just now and don't see any leaders or gunners on it right now.
