    Who: You and a bunch of your STR riding buddies
    What: Camping and riding at Hurkey Creek and Idyllwild Trails
    When: April 4-6, 2008 (come up and camp Friday-Sunday, or come join us for a day ride)
    Where: Hurkey Creek campground in Idyllwild
    Why: because we like it

    I'll look up the sites we got last year since those were pretty good and then we can start reserving spots nearby.

    Depending on riders we may split up rides, or maybe not. There are plenty of trails to ride in the area, and we won't be seeing a fraction of them!

    Not gauranteeing a family friendly environment near the main campsites :lol:

    There is running water, pay showers, etc.

    Come join in on the fun!

    Damn Tax Season. I'm basically a single father 'til the 15th, so going to be tough to make it this year with the little guy and all. I'll try to swing something though, this was too much fun last time.

    Doh! Just remembered, I already finagled a pass for AZSF this year. Hurkey Creek will take an act of Congress #-o.

    Should we try and reserve the group campsite this year. That way the fire pit is bigger and everyone can fit around it and still stay warm.

    I guess it depends on how many people might show? Dean already reserved a separate spot. What does everyone think??

    We camped at the group camp for 24 HOA and it was a really nice big fire pit,but the restrooms/shower were pretty gross

    I about reserved a site for Sat night since for sure we're camping in a pop-up,(Neil wants to use his truck tent) but didn't want to stop people from reserving it for both nights if that's the plan for most of the group.So i'm up for what ever.

    I just reserved #107 (where we camped last year).

    If anyone wants to share, each campsite can have 2 vehicles, 2 tents, and 6 people. So, $20 for the weekend if anyone wants to share a spot with us!

    Sounds good to me! We can carpool from here if all of our stuff will fit.

    Maybe a group of us can get together and chip in for food also?

    I think Justin might be making buck burgers turkey style!!

    I'll reserve 1 for both nights too, With the condition that we will have room when we get there Sat night.

    Added: So being that you all were there last year 106 or 108?

    That way we'll have 3 sites for people.

    Maybe Ranger Nancy will let me out for the weekend?

    I'm laying the ground work for this now. Only ridden this area once and that was enough to convince me I needed to come back again.
