Holly cross

[horseplay]

Is there any interest in doing Holly Cross some time this summer?

[Rox Crusher]

I would love to do HC this summer !

[Justin]

YES!

[landshark]

Yes, was thinking Blanca as well. Iam in for an August run

[TOOLMAN]

I may be in...

[Zenzone]

I'd like to go. I don't know how far up the trail my rig can make it. French creek crossing might be a little much for my 33 limited slip no rock sliders setup.

With patience and good spotting you can make it...........

[horseplay]

Early or late August. Seem like we should set a date and make it happen.

[Eck]

I could be interested and late August is way more open for me.

[ZOSO]

If I ever get off my ass and finish my bronco It's on my bucket list.

[Gunnibronco]

The later in August the more likely I'd be ready. I'd love to make this run this summer.

[crawlercreations]

I would definitely be interested in this trip. My bronco is ready but I'll have to see how my vacation travel goes before I can commit. I've just started on a deck project that I'm hoping to complete by August so that shouldn't get in the way. Going to Vegas, San Diego and Hawaii between August and October though so it'll all depend on that. I'm happy to be a trail leader or tail gunner. Or just go anywhere in between.

Saw a post on fb today that it is snow free all the way up.

Friends of mine pre ran it this last weekend for the set them free event and it is snow free French creek was flowing pretty good from the pics I saw.

Seems like more people are interested in a late August date.

I'm thinking we could do Holy Cross on Saturday and maybe another close by on Sunday morning ?

My kids go back to school the 2nd week in August so Friday and Monday not really an option for extending the week-end. We could come up Friday afternoon / evening though.

Or, does anyone want to use labor day week-end for this trip ?

[Jesus_man]

The trail can get busy and you do have to be careful with taking less experienced drivers and less capable rigs as that quickly backs up the trail. I think Labor Day weekend is one of the busier days on the trails in general.

It is an awesome trail and if you have interest you should do it. Get an early start and leave room for more capable rigs to get thru the group.

[Rox Crusher]

Anyone still wanting to go on this ?

How about the last week end in August ?

That would give everyone to,e to get ready.

[Justin]

I'm interested. Not sure on dates

[pgilbeau]

Interested, but need to be later in August. Need to finish the steering, hydroboost, seats, bumper, and winch I started before my summer classes.

[Rox Crusher]

ok, I have this on my calendar for Saturday August 27th.

I need to get my lockers hooked back up and this will be just the motivation I need to git-r-done

[cravenbronco]

Would like to run this trail but I'm not sure my truck is equipped for it.

[pgilbeau]

Sounds good, need the motivation to get my projects done. Is there any place to leave a tow rig and trailer in the area?

[Justin]

Would like to run this trail but I'm not sure my truck is equipped for it.

Someone is likely to have an open passengers seat....

hey matt you are welcome to ride with me.

[cravenbronco]

hey matt you are welcome to ride with me.

Sweet thanks Rob

[landshark]

Might be in. Need to troubleshoot a few things before I can go

[Justin]

27th might work for me. Won't know till just before.

[TOOLMAN]

I might be in for the 27th...have to double check with the wife.

[Eck]

So what time would we start this on the 27th? Is that day for sure happening? How difficult is this trail and what is required to run it? I'm pretty sure the 27th works for me depending on how early we'd plan on starting...

Me, I would prefer to go up to Leadville on Friday night in order to get an early start.

I did it year before last with 33" tires, 3.5" suspension, and selectable lockers front and rear.

There is one particularly tough boulder to get around at French Creek but other than that it is mostly about being patient and a good spotter.

I don't know how much it has changed since but if we go in a group I think we should do fine.

If nobody wants to go up Friday night, I would wait until everyone arrived Saturday morning.
