If you remember Ryan, last time we did Mineral basin we started off about 10-11 and rolled down in the dark (one of us with out headlights, LOL), granted we had some breakage, but I think that possibility needs to be factored in. I think it would be a long day, (and kinda pushing it) trying to fit them both in, in a day. Just my humble opinion.

how about saturday run forest lake, anytime. stay at mike's (if thats cool) and whoever cant make it until sunday we will all run mineral basin that day....then there is two days for people to make it and or do both/stay the night.
i get off at about 3 on saturday so i may do both trails depending on what the plans end up being.
ya i have to safety/IM my heap next month. i have a guy that does it for me but he is not answering my calls at the moment so....i gotta figure something out soon.
Sanderson-i just pulled out my zj steering, the sleeve for the pitman arm TRE is busted so it needs a new one (junkyard?) and a TRE if i cant find my spare.
