Owl Creek/Sneffels area This Weekend
Anyone heading to the Owl Creek/Silver Jack/County Rds. 5 and 7 this coming weekend? I'll be there with my wife and 3 dogs in our little trailer. So if you see a blue FJ with RVN-MTN New Mexico plates and a small pop-up, stop by and say hello!

That looks like a sweet setup, I really like the hard sided popups.

I'll be there, and be watching for you! Look for my green 99 4Runner with Thule cargo box, and an old CNP sticker :)

I'll be there Tuesday late afternoon/early evening. Picking up a rental with John Zinn in Denver, so I'm not sure yet what we're driving. Could be a fun week!

Possible. I am basing out of Moab over the weekend - but may do one trip Saturday or Sunday. I will be mostly in the area for the week after. I drive a Gray 2009 Touareg w/ BFG 32's and air lift. Lic Plate Nevada KF6VOM. Look for all the antennas. Might tent camp in places.

I might try to make it out there for a few days this weekend, but that is a HUGE maybe. If I can get another person or two to tag along and chip in for gas I would definitely be up that way.

Yeah Brent! Just like those! :biggrin:

Hey Peter, recruit some of those other fine Arizona photographers and hit the road! :smile:

Phillip I would, but many of them don't have the same time off or are not available to travel this weekend. Still trying to figure it out.

Oops, I posted in the wrong thread. I'll be out this weekend, and hoping for good color in the San Juans. Stop to say hi if you see my Vanagon.

Not to surprise anyone too badly, but I may be there Thursday morning - Friday morning. I'll be in a white Nissan Frontier with a Fatheads sticker on the back. Hope to see some of you guys.

Just booked a flight from Richmond, VA and hope to see some of you out Thursday-Sun. Not sure what I am renting yet but I will probably have a Tennessee Vol hat on!

Well, I saw Brent at Silverjack for about 10 minutes, and I figure I must have passed you going over Owl Creek Pass while you were headed for Ridgway. Sorry I missed you. We definitely need something to identify each other out on the road. :wavey:
