We will meet at the same location as the Ichthyosaur run. Definitely bring extra gas.

Fun. Love secret spots that may involve secret stuff. I’ll put this on the calendar.

How many miles in the wilderness will this be?
My fuel range last trip was easily 250 miles.
Just trying to determine if I really need extra fuel.

I will ask Mark if he has an estimated mileage figure yet. I'm sure everyone else would like to know as well.

Interested in going on this trip but coming in from sacramento is there a meetup point on the way in off of 395 where we could catch up with you?

Meet up will be in Silver Springs, then travel to the Texaco Station at the corner of HWY95 and HWY339 for a top off of fuel. From there we will head down 339 into the Pine Grove area, this where we will camp on the first night at a high elevation (hoping for low temps). It will be about a 250 mile run so it is suggested to bring additional fuel if 250 miles with at least 100 miles of trails gets your vehicle close to empty. Hope this is helpful in your planing. Marc @delta22 has a great trip planned.
We're new to the group, we look forward to seeing you all there.

The meetup for this run is in Silver Spring NV on Saturday morning at 9:am. This is at the junction of 95 and 50. We are going in the back way opposed to getting there via 395. Hope this helps

Awesome trip, one of my favorite areas! Unfortunately Labor Day weekend is a blackout date for time off. Burn some gas for me!

I’m not going to be able to make it, I signed up for the Sierras Rally, and can only do one big trip a month. One of these days I need to make it up there and do a run with you, you seem to have a really great group up there in Reno.

Thanks. It's a fun group. Look forward to seeing you on another run in the future.

We prefer dispersed camping whenever possible. This is the goal for this trail run.
