Camping Trip!! Come One, Come All!!

i can't wait! i just got back from joshua tree national park. it is truly an amazing desert. can't wait to see what pt mugu has to offer.

i'll be camping saturday night and leaving late sunday, so hopefully i see some of you around! i'll be at the sycamore campground, wherever they assign me.

 

Gonna try to make it with the family so I can meet the infamous butt shaver.

 

I would like to do this. I might even be back riding by then. So I assume I can bring my little guys?

 

I sure hope so. I hear there are kid friendly trails out there.

 

Absolutely. Kids will love it!
Come even if you aren't riding. Plenty of hiking!

And here's some pics for the surfers!:beer:

 

Here's some pics of some of the camp area's.
Don't forget to call and reserve a space. we have a good group going and there are trails for total beginners and trail for the tough guys! :wave:

 

Thanks for the pics Liz.

I rode out there last February with Lynn and Scott. Here are a couple of teaser pics, it really is a nice ride.

I don't know, can you?

j/k, I know I have a hard time sleeping well in a car, but I'm 6' 5" #-o

I'm sure you can if it's parked in a campsite and properly registered.

As for the suitablilty for kids riding, it's the best trail system I've ever run across for kids and the place I took both of mine for their first real 'epic' mtb ride. From the campground is the best route for the kids. From there, it can be as easy or hard as you wish to make it and anything in between.

The top of Guadalasca... in August =P~



The one thing I would add is to bring what you need with you as there are no stores of any kind relatively nearby (probably five to ten miles south in Malibu would be the closest).

And (as far as I know) night riding is legal too!

 

Night riding is a must!!
How many will be up for that??
Should it be Friday night or Saturday?
Bring wood too everyone! Lots of it!!

 

totally down for night riding! i may be making it out friday-sunday instead of just saturday and sunday. i probably can only do one night of biking, unless there is an electrical hookup at the camp site. will keep ya'll updated on my status

 

Wow after those pics I think we're 99% in instead of 90% in.

 

For the morning right:?: I always bring wood. Lots of it cause I like to share:beerwater)

I'm not camping because I live so close but I'll probably join you guys for the night & day rides.

 

Bring logs not lumber.

quote:

CCA pressure-treated wood contains arsenic which can be released from the wood in several ways:

• When the wood burned
• Mechanical abrasion
• Direct contact
• When acid contacts the treated lumber.

Burning:Incineration of CCA wood does not destroy arsenic. It is incredible, but a single 12 foot 2 x 6 contains about 27 grams of Arsenic - enough arsenic to kill 250 adults. Burning CCA wood releases the chemical bond holding Arsenic in the wood, and just one Tablespoon of ash from a CCA wood fire contains a lethal dose of Arsenic. Worse yet, Arsenic gives no warning: it does not have a specific taste or odor to warn you of its presence. No one disputes that the ash from burning CCA wood is highly toxic: It is illegal to burn CCA wood in all 50 states. This has serious implications for firefighters, cleanup and landfill operations.

 

I don't see any treated lumber in that pic and you are right...not safe to burn....what I do see in the truck is enough lumber for a 15min fire....DougFir burns SOOOOOO fast

 

im pretty sure that the store 12miles away sells firewood. but either way, give me some!

 

No pressure treated wood there! But it did last for Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday morning! We are talking fire wood right:?:




Good times!!

HUGH

 

I'd have to concur looks like good times and good odds...:bang:
