My truck is fixed for now, so hopefully I'll be there. Those dates work for me. Unless I break something yet again.

Alright, Ive got some discussion started on CLCMUD,
http://forum.ih8mud.com/co-colorado-land-cruisers/308286-holy-cross-trip-aug-12-a.html#post4736643
Saturday the 12th Sound good, and im thinking 9:00 AM on the trail to beat the crowds.. Maybe Start Staging and Airing Down at 8:30 at the Trail Head.

Im planning on Camping Friday & Saturday!

If this does not work for most, we can change plans, but its getting close, and we need to make a decision!

Randy - Can you Please EDIT the first Post with new info!

Done, can you post up some directions to the trailhead? Are the directions in traildamage.com accurate?

Where does everyone plan on camping Saturday night? I have a prior arangement on Friday night & most of the day Sat, but I would like to meet up with those that are staying Saturday night if possible. Will there be any wheeling on Sunday?

Sounds like Sharon may not be able to go. I do have a friend who said he would like to go. Either way I will be there on Friday night for some camping and good eats.

How many people are going to be camping/on the run.

I figure I need to clean up this thread a bit and get head counts. Who's headed up? Who's headed up Friday night? Who is staying Saturday night? Who needs a ride? We doing a big cook out Friday night?

I'm out of town and dont get back to Denver until Friday the 11th so were probably just going up and back on Saturday. Is anyone interested in meeting at the Starbucks in Downieville, exit 234, the convoying up the rest of the way?

Here are the directions to the trailhead from traildamage.com, can anyone confirm these are correct?

Take I-70 to exit 171 marked U.S. 24. Just after the Hornsilver Campground turn right on 703. You will see signs to Blodgett Campground and Homestake Reservoir. The trail is about 9 miles down 703 on the right marked FS 759. It is just past the Gold Park Forest Service Campground.

Alternatively, you can drive north from Leadville on U.S. 24 past Camp Hale. Turn left on 703 just past some switchbacks.

I am planning on getting up there Friday afternoon as soon as I can sneak out of here. There is a chance Jerry might go with me but only a chance. I do not plan on staying Saturday night but am going to leave the option out there just in case I change my mind.

Too bad Jerry's junk isn't finished. This would be a good trail to try that new to him suspension out on :) I guess for that matter its too bad my pile of parts isn't done, I would love to go. Are brakes necessary for this? If not I would come :D
