I see that we are meeting at McD's at 0930, are we having breakfast then or do need to finishing eating by then? Also, I have both a CB and FRS Radios, it looks like you use both on trail rides, what channel do we need to be on?
Thanks for sending out the GPS points, I had some of them but did not have the actual starting point and the first section of the trail.
See you all Saturday,

0930 is the meet time. Everyone is welcome to come earlier though. 0930 will give everyone time to meet, greet and eat before we get to the trail, depart time will be at 1000, also it's easier to meet on the main road then at the trial head.
We use Channel 8 on the CB and FRS'. |

We'll go over this (and more) at the trail head, but I want to point out that the CB's are to be used for command and control...not for chatter/BSing. That's what the FRS's are for.
edit - David: Your welcome to come break your winch in with us. We have two goals: One is to stretch out/break in the wire rope and the second is to put together a pictoral writeup of basic winching techniques for J.Ho and the FM2CD webpage. _________________

We usually have at least 3 extra ones. I can give up mine as well and have anything important that comes over FRS relayed to me on CB...I actually prefer this since it can be kinda of difficult to lead a group of Jeeps, navigate/manipulate GPS, manage two radios and still have fun.  _________________

I'm still in need of a 2"x20' tow strap I'll be getting that, and a Hi-Lift either today or tomorrow....depending on when my deposit shows on the statement
I havn't seen a write up of how I'd like to install a Hi-Lift so I think I might just do one  |
