I'm camping in a free location and there will be plenty of space for an additional few tents if anyone is interested.

I put in for time off of work today. Don't know if it will be approved or not, but if so I'd like to make the trip out. I will not be bringing a Bronco as I plan to have started the tear down by then.

So, anyone potentially have a shotgun seat open for the drive and wouldn't mind a passenger in their Bronco?

Crawler!!!!! They are running coyote canyon. It's by invite only so you'll have to find out who is in charge of that choice and pucker up. Looks like it will be a good time with a few new trails to try.

I was planning on going home early that day but I will change my plans if I can get an invite!

Edit: that is last year's schedule. Thanks for getting my hopes up!

I was looking into this and I may be able swap some vacation around to make the trip to Moab. If I can swing this, would I be able to squeeze in on any camping space with you guys who have planned much further in advance than I have? If I can make it happen, I will be begging, borrowing or renting a trailer to pull the Bronco out. Also, I will probably be rolling solo because Michelle does not have enough vacation. I may let the boy ditch school for a few days to go but we have to approve it with Mom first. Either way, we would have a couple open seats in the Truck and Bronco. I still have to get final approval from work but I'm about 80% sure I can make it happen. I just wanted to feel it out since I'm sort of inviting myself.

With as many broncos intending to be trailered to Moab maybe we should look into a vehicle transport service to haul them all there. This would minimize the need for trailer parking which is a rare commodity.

We are less than 2 months away from this event and need to start firming up ours plans for our lodging and more importantly parking.

It looks like we have the following folks sharing a common campfire,

Rox Crusher - tow rig, trailer and bronco
76fordbronco with 76fordbroncogirl - tow rig, trailer and Gregg's bronco
Landshark
ZOSO - tow rig, trailer and Landshark's bronco
Viperwolf1 - bronco
Gregg
Gunnibronco - bronco and pop up camper
casadejohnson - tow rig, trailer and bronco (?)
AK68 (?)

76fordgroncogirl and I are staying in our truck camper, I believe Gunnibronco is bringing a small pop up with room for himself, Viperwolf1 and 4 Swedish swimsuit models. That being said we need to know if your tent camping or bringing another motor home/camper or tent along with are you trailering your rig? Depending on if the campground will allow us to park behind the cabins as they did last year will depend on how tight the parking gets. Last year we had 7 vehicles with 2 spaces this year we have the potential of 18 with 4 spaces. Please post your responses soon.

We are also looking to caravan from the Denver area on April 29th. Let us know if you can participate in that too.

Registered, looking forward to the trip. Just need to find the time to dial in the Bronco, and run the camper through its paces.

Very slim chance I'll have the F250 ready & a trailer to bring the Bronco & pop-up. IF (that's a big IF) I do, I'll post up asap.
