For clarification, the limit on driving portion of this training is 10 vehicles and there are 2 trainers. I don't want to bring 2 rigs if the limit is 10 trucks for the driving portion.

 

[Yarn Cruiser]

Correct, 10 trucks is the limit on trail.

 

[Sean Solo]

Is boon-docking at the training parking lot still allowed?

 

[MonPetiteShoe]

I'd clear it with Bill, but I'm pretty sure you're good.

We'll be leaving in the afternoon. Hopefully all the goons stay on the west side of Vail pass.

We'll be monitoring GMRS channel 20 as we cruise the I-70 corridor.
I'll try to monitor the forum as often as service allows.

Drive safe everyone.

Sitting in stopped traffic on Vail Pass. Saw a couple emergency vehicles squeezing through. Hope everyone is safe & taking their time.

Bring plenty of patience and a car that can idle.

3rd large recovery vehicle just went past. Trailing a fire truck and a fire department SUV.

Thinking this is going to take a while.

We’re at the front of the line and there’s 2 18 wheelers blocking the road and they said it’s going to be a couple hours

Blergh. At least it’s a pretty view & I’ve got audio books, internet and plenty of gas. Wait, is this over-landing? Should we be posting this to YouTube?!

Anyway, enjoy the sit.

I hear some static / almost chatter on GRMS 20. Will dm my phone if anyone needs to communicate up here.

It's a mess on Vail Pass. Good luck all.









Good news is from Vail town all the way out is fine. A little wet in Glenwood Canyon but nothing accumulating.

 

[Inukshuk]

Guess I will order another beer. We are in Frisco.
