Snowbird, Nov 5th and 6th, 2011

[Southeast Overland]

Just added 2 more people. I'm also going to cap the ride at 25 people. At our current # of people we will have to break into two groups. Any more than 25 and we are looking at three groups and that starts to get tricky with having enough leaders.

The owner of Crawfords Campground has offered to cater Saturday night dinner with pulled pork BBQ plates for $10. I'm all for it. Is anyone else interested?

 

[LR Max]

In for Crawfords BBQ dinner on Saturday.

Dumb (yet important question): Do I need to call and make my own campsite reservations? If so, do I say I am with Steve or Southeast Overland or ?

Sounds good on the BBQ.

If you want a cabin, bunk house or RV spot with hook up then you need to call and make reservations. If you just want to primitive camp then you do not need reservations. I'll talk with the campground owner Danny and get us all one chunk of primitive camping together.

Gotcha for BBQ.

We currently have 11 BBQ plates requested for Sat night. We need 20 for the numbers to work out. Does anyone else want BBQ?

I would be down for bbq depending on how much the camping fees are, how much is it to camp?

Call Danny at Crawford's for camping price. The rates are reasonable as I recall but I don't remember the exact price.

you had mentioned getting a large area for our group, was there going to be a group rate? or is it just the everyday price?

 

[97TJGUZZY]

Here are the normal rates

30 amp sites with water & electric: $20.00 (Tent or RV)
Primitive sites: $12.00 per Tent

they also have the 4 person bunk houses:

4 Person Bunk Cabins (Heated and Air conditioning):
$30 per night first person $5 each additional person(4 per. Max. capacity)

he mentions on the website that he discounts for groups, so see what you can work up

 

[Southeast Overland]

I'm assuming it will be the regular rate. I was going to get Danny to put us all in the far field.

I'll be going into Snowbird on Friday to check out the Rock Trail. I'd like to cap the Friday trip at 4 or 5 rigs total if anyone is interested.

I plan on coming up on Thursday after work and camping. Haven't decided on my Friday activities though. Was going to go bomb around up in that area, see what else is available but this "rock trail" is intruging. Guess I'll need to pull the TSLs out of storage!

Sounds good and let me know when you decide on what you are doing Friday. Right now it's just me and another member riding with me on Friday and possibly another FJ Cruiser coming.

As to tires, if it is dry ATs will be fine. If it gets wet it gets a little slick. This place is not a mud bog and has very very little mud, but the loamy soil on some of the trails is very similar to what you used to see out at Tellico. It might not look slick, but....

 

[97TJGUZZY]

I have 4 more people for saturday if there is still room.

 

[97TJGUZZY]

Just talked to Danny at Crawfords. With our group rate it will be $10 per night per tent to camp.

Excellent!

 

[Southeast Overland]

We are still short on BBQ plates. We really need 20 plates for Danny to make BBQ.

 

[97TJGUZZY]

Also when I spoke with him I asked him about the BBQ. its catered from a local bbq place. So we could go into town and get some bbq if we dont get enough people.
