I think I can safely say that you can count me and my girl in. We've done a Fri/Sat and come back Sunday thing before but I can't say for sure what we will do this time, depends on what she can do with work on Friday afternoon then.

Hopefully, there will be good snow coverage. When snow is plenty, I prefer Crystal because there are just a lot more natural features to play with.

I agree though, Crystal's park is minimal. Then again, I'm a park noob so that's alright with me haha. We barely hit the park last season though because we were all in the trees the entire time.

I'm down for either but am a fan of Crystal. I will probably drive up early on the 16th and leave on the 17th. Just get in all day Saturday and early sesh Sunday then drive home.

The 17th is Saturday so you'll be leaving on the 18th. Sorry for the confusion. I just want to drive up night before so I can attempt first chair Saturday... Long shot seeing as how I love the bar across the street from the cabins.

So you'll be solo? And are you interested in sharing cabins? Not sure how big they get, but we had one with 4 rooms. A master with king, two with twins, and one with bunks. Living room had comfy couch and love seat.

I'm sure there are bigger ones too.

I'll sleep where ever on the floor or something and yes I will be rolling solo. I can only do the night because our daughter will only be 1 month old and I will be surprised if my wife allows me to leave for just the one night!

maverick I'll plan on riding up with you that's the schedule I was looking at, leaving here around 6am should get us there around 10-1030 depending on traffic and pit stops, we can take the jeep unless you'd prefer to take the Taco.

Sounds good man, we will Taco it up; I should have the snowboard bed rack finished up by then so it will be a good trial run. Its a little premature I know but lets just say the park and ride on D19 and 96 at 6am then we can roll 96 over to 131 in GR and up!

Should be faster to take 96/127/10/115 rather than going all the way west to GR.
