Nice. I was just exploring up there last weekend. This weekend I'll be camping up there near Holcomb to escape the heat. Hopefully the fires die down somewhat. It's real smokey around here. At least the winds are blowing west instead of east towards Big Bear. I'll try to make the meet up next Thursday.
It was nice to escape that summer heat. I was with a few friends and camped out on wildhorse. Not as crowded as Holcomb.

A heads up that we are getting together tomorrow! We are meeting this month at Lonehill Middle School at 6:00. It’s just off the freeway and east to find. There are plenty of places to grab a bite at a Lonehill and Arrow Hwy, just a couple blocks away. Bring a chair, maybe dinner. We will be under the solar on the lawn plenty of parking.
All are welcome.
I’ll be flying the Overland glad from my white Ram 2500. Ballena Blanca. Hope to see you all there.

Meeting at Lone Hill Middle School at 700 S Lone Hill Ave, San Dimas, CA 91773. Bring some chairs and hang out in the field next to the parking lot. Bring some food to enjoy, several places in the area up Lone Hill. This location was changed to aid social distancing (there are a few in the group who are either immunocompromised or live with someone who is). Looking forward to seeing you!
I'll be there!! Man its been a while. Glad you are getting this set up.

I think the new venue worked out pretty well and was much more comfortable compared to the parking lot before. The only gotcha I see is if for some reason there happens to be a school function coinciding on the night of one of our meets which probably will not be a problem for the next month or so.

Yes, I thought of that too. Hopefully the restaurants will be open as the school opens.

Thank you @MMc for hoisting the flag!

Looking forward to joining this time around at Lone Hill 6pm.

( @socal66 thanks for pointing out the rally point discrepancy BTW, I've manually updated it - it seems to be a bug, one part of the event says "recurring on every Thursday" ... but then it shows it on Sunday, haha)
