Signed everything and sent it right back on USPS's fastest snail.
   The permit will be signed by the superintendent then emailed back to me. We are on que to at least have a digital copy of the permit by mid week.

You're awesome Danny!!!  Thanks for handing this for all of us!

Do any of you guys that have been on this run before have a list of 2M HAM repeaters that work well so I get them pre-plotted?

Erik...believe it or not, ham repeater coverage inside the preserve is very sparse.

Here is a link to a focused discussion on repeaters/freqs. for the Mojave Road on EP:

Mojave Road Repeaters

Scroll down to post #6 for a cool link to a map that shows Newberry Springs/Barstow/Needles as the only repeater coverage outside "The Road".

Hope that helps!  :)

I'm hitting it early-ish....around 9am Thursday.  Expected arrival in Laughlin around 1:30.

Solo again....my passenger had to back out.  :(

Can't wait!!!

I was thinking about noon-ish myself from the Temecula area. Going to take the I-10 and go up through Twentynine Palms and Amboy instead of the traditional I-40 route, just to enjoy the desert drive a little more. Any SD folks heading up around the same time that want to caravan? I'm a little flexible on time but want to get to Laughlin soon enough to enjoy myself a little.
