Bronco Safari

Post by horseplay »

I see a number of people are going to TN in April. I know it's early is anyone planning on going to Moab for the Safari in 2016.

This is my arbitrary goal. To be up and running for Moab.

I'll be very interested in going if there are others interested.

I'd also like to rent a condo, not tent/pop-up camp. The cost difference was minimal, and the comfort & amenities were well worth it. I don't have good info on renting, so it would be wise to start looking now, if a more than a few people are interested.

I will be going.
Got new Harness installed and just a few more things and it will be ready.

I'm a maybe. This trip always lands around my GF's birthday and this year is her 30th. If I do go, I'll most likely be staying on BLM land and camping as I usually do in Moab.

I'm hoping to make it. It's probably more realistic than TN since I won't have much PTO saved up.

I've mentioned it. She didn't seem that into it at the time. Maybe I can start working on her...

Just posted on their Facebook page:

Bronco Safari 2016 will be May 4-7 in Moab. Based at the Moab Rim Campark they are now taking reservations (435) 259-5002

Looks like it's later than usual. I should be able to make it now.

It's only the 50th anniversary this time. I'm sure the 51st will be just as big though.

I'm not going to worry about making it this year. I expect my rig to be ready, but I don't want my first trails, post-reinvention, to be in Moab. I want to make my trial runs closer to home, and plan to take a tested rig to Moab in 2017.

I'm still up in the air. It'll depend on how much time I get in the garage. May be a last minute call.

I'm probably going tow mine just in case some of the last minute projects need fine tuning.
