Sadly, I'm now 80% out for this event. I'm holding on to a sliver of hope that I can make it, but it's highly unlikely at this point. :(

Yeah Jeff, I should be on that list.

Two quick questions:  Are we bringing fire wood to Arizona?

And is anyone else getting really exited about this trip?!?

Just a heads up about firewood...

I was in Yosemite and a ranger saw that I brought wood from San Clemente to Yosemite...

He said that smoke from trees that aren't from around the area of the burn can be damaging to the local trees....he said to always try to use local wood to keep the local flora healthy.

What's fire wood.  I though all fires ran on gas. ??? Or in OC dry grass.

There is also a significant risk of bringing non-native insects/termites/beetles into new areas this way, which can devastate the tree population in areas. The funny part is, I don't see how this is different than buying wood at a local store that came from somewhere else far away. ???

I am heading out pre-dawn on Friday to make it to the noon run.  I will get firewood in Kingman.  I am going minimalist this trip - hammock & tarp, instant or canned food.  And beer.

I'm leaving tomorrow to visit family in Havasu, then plan on heading up before noon to also catch the Friday trip.  I'm assuming those of us from Cali are going to stick to fend for yourself meal plan.  Unless I hear otherwise I wont plan any potluck items.

A TRUE minimalist would bring a jug of moonshine
