Looks like we're going to get some rain showers on Friday up there Bob, and Saturday is mostly sunny, hopefully no dust, and tacky trails. [emoji1417][emoji3]

Wish I could hook up with you guys demoing a new Maverick on that day... Only a couple of trails I have yet to hit up there but no mater how many times you go to that area its allways great!

Maybe next year on the x3... Can am has a history of dumping non desirable items on there first year releases ... Like non Qe locking diff and drive components that quickly get swaped out at the owners expense. I'm going to wait for the general population to put some time on them and the aftermarket world to re-engineer it this time!
I'm pulling two maverick out to cold springs with my toyhauler and the only way I can pull it off is with the short w.b.14' on my sled deck... So I most likely be keeping it.
By the way where is GSR? Gold ranch casino maybe? Great place to stay and ride out of... If you make it up to the manned f.s. Lookout say hello to Paul

This is the moon rocks staging area, its flat and where everyone parks when they camp.http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161012/9742314979d95c8d0a0048f998afa44f.png
I'm going to talk with Mike and see if they want to ride out from my parents which is in golden valley and head out from there since I will be starting from there, I can get to moonrocks in about 20-25 minutes in my rzr from there. If you wanted to start with us from there we can all meet up and head out together

Hopefully it gets a good soaking on Friday, and good on Saturday, I'm definitely going to bring the rain gear, and put the front window on, in case we hits shower or two, my car stays pretty dry inside with the roof, and I wear a full face helmet.

If the rain keeps moving it was coming down in cold springs and red rock area about an hour ago which is just south west of moon rocks.
How's the wind out there?

I would guess about 20 mph. A little wind is good it blows the dust away.
