That's what we based it on for starters. Certainly open to suggestions.

Was there one you'd cancel instead?

The schedule worked out well last year, so why not do it again...

I'd be up for checking out Golden Mountain, but personally, I'm not driving 400 miles for a 500 acre park. GM would have to be pretty awesome to drive 5hrs for 500 acres.

Gold mountain is awsome thats why we go every year.

I'm not opposed to change, I just don't want to drive more than 5hrs to wheel.

Rausch does look cool, but it's 8hrs away.

In April we are debating on going to gold mountain or Windrock with my group

So if we add Golden Mountain will you guys go? It's usually the same 4 that go on the big trips. There were 11 trips on the schedule last year. I made 9 plus a bunch that weren't on there. The change I'd like to see is see more people on the trips.

My rig is done, as of a couple days ago. I'll be tagging along on trips with Jim now. If that's cool with you guys.

Agreed Kevin...I would like more than anything to see larger groups get together.

Plenty of camping and wide open trails plus it's open everyday. We usually show up late thurs. GM doesn't open till 6pm on friday. That doesn't leave a lot of time to wheel. GM seems a bit pricey too. $25 per vehicle on first day and $15 each additional day plus $10 a day rider, $5 a day passenger. IDK, not knocking the place, just sayin.

if you get in contact with the owner and plan accordingly you can get there whenever you like, if i recall correctly... you can also reserve a shelter and have the place for just the group you go with...

It's up to you guys... I'll go when i can, but i'm not doing the planning for something that just fizzles out when the time comes... been there done that...

If that's possible to do that would be for the best to get people to go, I'm good for trying something new, it's a little further than Harlan but from what I hear they have made the most outa the park for its size, i know you have mentioned the park to me a few times and Rob recently talked with me about it also, further away trips are always hard to get people to fully commit. I don't see why we can't put that in our calendar and see what group will get together to go.

I would love to check out golden mountain. However whenever we schedule a trip to somewhere new and far away it genarally gets cancelled. See ivy branch the last two years for examples. I know personally I cannot go on or near the fourth of July weekend.

I will gladly go in this trip if we can all pick a good date.

I doubt I will be able to wheel less than Half of the scheduled trips for 2016 due to my shoulder surgery which is most likely gonna take place in late May or first week in June, I'm hoping I'm gonna at least be able to wheel Harlan before I'm outa commission for 3 to 4 months. Gonna try to possibly be a rider if a can a few months after surgery if cleared by a doctor, cant take the risk of a accident or roll over that will put me outa commission for longer, i have to be able to recover properly so I can return to work. I'm not looking foward to missing out on some good wheeling fun for 2016
