THIS IS THE EXACT POST I JUST DROPPED ON AZXC. PLEASE READ IT AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK AND ANY THOUGHTS/ADVICE YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING EITHER THE TIME OR TRAILS OR THE GUY LEADING 
OR WHATEVER.Hi guys/gals...
My name is Christiaan, and I am tenatively planning an Xcursion in Sedona for late November (specifically, Thanksgiving weekend).
Why Thanksgiving weekend? Well, to be blunt, time. I live in So Cal, and the drive if I only stop to gas up will take me 7-8hrs. That pretty much eats up a day. So, a normal 3 day weekend would be too short for me. Thanksgiving weekend gives me Thurs/Fri/Sat and I can even sneak a trail in early Sun morning before driving home.
Will it be cold? Probably. I'm going to camp, just to keep costs down. And, I like to camp. Now, I do not like frostbite. Nor do I like waking up to snow on the ground. What am I getting at? Well, if it really is as cold as that...maybe I will postpone until a better time arises.
What does all this mean to you, fellow AZXC/SCCX/TNX member?
-What trails are 'must see' or 'can't miss'. I did the Outlaw Trail just this past Saturday and it was bitchin; a lot of dirt road, but right at the beginning and end there were 2 decently technical parts that had to be taken seriously. I've read about Schnebly; Broken Arrow; Greasy Spoon....please, feel free to elaborate on one of those or add one I might not have heard of
-Thoughts. Is the time of year going to kill this? Have you camped around this time there before? I've been in close contact w/ John Tyler (GhostX), and he's given me extensive threads about the first(?) CANVAZ held in Sedona. And he was very clear about how cold it was when he did then, and how they handled it and what they thought coming away from it.
-Interest. Interested? Post up. Even if it's just a mild 'hey, we may roll out if the weather holds'. I get that. No biggie. Just trying to get an idea as to how many.
Once I get an idea as to how many we might have, I'll look into reserving a site or two,and we'll pass around a hat or something to make sure everyone chips in. But, for right now, I'm mainly concerned with who and how many. That's all.
Alright. If you have any questions, feel free to reply w/ them or even shoot me a PM if that works better for ya. Looking forward to hearing from many of you!!
Thanks,
-Christiaan
