Short notice, but my eldest daughter and I will be going camping in Crown King this weekend. The plan is to meet at 9:00 am at the airdown spot on Saturday 16th On trail by 9:30 nice casual drive up to CK. set up camp, head into town for some eats, back to camp sit around fire tell stories have a few cold ones. Sunday morning have some breakfast, then make the choice to go back down the trail, or take the dusty dirt road out to I 17.

So anybody want to go? your also more than welcome to join us for the trip up, then head out after that if yo dont want to camp.

So far its me (and my daughter) and no Travis is not my oldest daughter, he is going also (edited for Mikes clarification)

Now that I am grounded from wheeling until the baby comes, I have got the wheeling bug big time.

I was planning to do at least SOME wheeling this weekend, I might be down to make the trip up, possibly with another Jeep. However I would need to come back down to Phoenix Saturday evening, got some stuff to do Sunday morning.

I will let you know tomorrow evening if I plan to go.:)

Thats for sure. The weather in PHX in the past couple days has been great for this time of year especially.

It will be a great weekend to be out on the trail. Too bad my rig is on jackstands still.

Had a great time wheeling with you guys today. Was a fun trip.
Sorry we didn't wait around for you guys in town, right after we got to Crown King it was about 3:30 and my friend had to be back to Phoenix for work at 5(we didn't get there until 6:D ) so we high-tailed it out of there and got on the road. The firemans auction did look interesting though:)
See you on the trail again soon, I will post pics here in a while.
:)

Here are some of the pics I shot: In no particular order, photobucket screwed up the order

Glad you guys had fun. How was the weather up there camping? Was it cool enough for a camp fire?

Still haven't gotten those retainers yet I see. :D

Glad you all had a good time!!! That washout seems to have really filled in since I was there a while back.

Karla and I had a great time!!! Although the following day was a little rough...:D

Most of the evening's adventures are classified..."What happens in Crown King, Stays in Crown King"...:D

Thanks to Jeff (twstdtj) for letting us share his tent...:eek: :D ;)
