42 hour drive according to google maps and that does not include a 1.5 ferry ride or pee breaks.

LOL - reminds me of one of the opening scenes in Crazy Heart (a movie where Jeff Bridges plays a drunk country singer). I tried to find the clip to post here but couldn't. I thought it was a great movie - he's a good drunk
I been using bottles to pee in while hunting since i was young. Driving and trying to pee in a bottle is really hard. I've done it a few times. I hate stopping once i get on the interstate.

The wife said she would be interested in going. She won't go rock climbing with me, what type of trails are there? I'll do some research.

We will not be doing anything rough. She will not have anything to worry about.

Every kind of trail is available, the loop I have in mind does not cover any extreme rocks that scare the bejesus out of the family, but there is some steep climbs on smooth switchbacks talking 40% grade according to my GPS tracks. Run it in my Pioneer 500 with another 200 pound guy riding shotgun had to use low gear but no problems going up or down them. Primarily wooded trails some a bit more open as logging is going on the very back side of the longest perimeter trail. I ran them with my 2 yr. old grandson in a car set with 5 of us total in the P1K also no problem loaded down. Main group ride will be a family friendly run not too boring, not too scary. Time permitting I can take the more adventurous attendees on a separate run Friday or Sunday if they choose.
EDIT: I will be there from the Tuesday before all the way through Sunday in RV spot #5 (2nd spot after you check in the General Store) anyone arriving earlier in the week, I will be happy to take some alternate trail rides Wednesday through and up until before the Friday evening rides.

Wish I could get there earlier in the week. I like challenging the machine (and myself too). I'm no daredevil but I like the occasional "oh sh*t" moment lol. It's gonna be fun no matter what the trail. Are we going to the waterfalls? I'd like to see them.

Jeez why do I keep watching this thread?? That's going to be so fun! You're making a 40 hour drive sound more and more like a better idea!

Hopefully we can expand our venue down the road. Would love to help organize a Utah Paiute Trail Group Ride as well as an Alaska one, thing is even with all the members we have in Alaska several would still have a 20 hour drive / ferry and never leave the state

Yes that would be great to be able to do it. I know membership is a bit slim west of the Mississippi, but hopefully that's going to change!Hopefully we can expand our venue down the road.
