I'm in on this run! Ben asked me to lead so I will do my best to put on a good time for all who can make it!

For anybody who has ever wanted to do the rubicon now is the time!! I've wheeled this trail for many many years, I know my way around. This is a great place with amazing lakes to swim and awesome scenery.

Here's the scoop...
For anyone wanting to come Friday we will be at the icehouse staging area around 8:30pm. From there we will head into the trail stopping for the night at the slabs. For all the Saturday people (if any) we I'll head back to staging area to meet everyone at 8:30am. From that point we can leave as a group into the rubicon. We will stop at spider lake if anyone wants to swim and have lunch. From that point we will continue down to buck island to set up camp. I'm fine with pushing on down to the springs if everyone wants to do that. Sunday is wide open, at some point we will head back to the tow rigs :)

Yes 66ELco. It will be a fun trip. Camping Friday & Saturday night on the trail. We hit Foredyce today (which is much harder than the rubicon) with the RZR's. No prob!
