The meeting place is also past the Lee Canyon turnoff and on the west/left side of the highway.

That just means that you need to drive faster in order to catch up to us. :twisted:

Wheeler at night is always a great run. Thanks, JJ.
Also, thanks to D-Rail for showing us Chipmonk Pass. That should be an interesting to during the day, hopefully with a little less pinstriping.

What a terrific run! Thanks JJ for posting up & leading.
The headlights bobbing in a dark, moonless night was indeed a site, but after hours of it I got a case of motion-sickness! Weird! Joe offered a different kind of "moon", but then admitted he couldn't drive, too, if he did that. :shock:

Chipmonk Pass was phenomenal! I concur with Bob - a must run in the daytime! How about doing it in October before it snows??? I think D-Rail's agenda for us was to bushwack that part of the trail to discourage it from growing over again. Pinstriping was loud on this one.

Staying out until 4:00 AM was hard, but WORTH every minute. Thanks everyone for coming!

It's amazing how much the brush can grow in 7-months. We need to do another tree trimming run when it's cooler 4 sure.. I'm glad everyone had fun. :)
