defibvt and I will be going to Box Canyon and Florence area trails May 12th. This will be a great day and a chance to pre-run Box Canyon before the night run later on in May. There are a multitude of trails down there from easy to extreme, so come along and have some good 'ol times with me and defibvt (Scott) who has a hard time making it for Xcursions due to a messy work schedule.
Stay tuned for full details.

Count me in.

Meeting time will be 8:00am. As to the meeting place...open for suggestions. I am not knowledgeable on good meet up spots near there. Please cross post this Andy, I forgot to throw it up on SWANKy net this morning. It would be awesome to have a herd of transfer case equipped machines out there. I am up to run as many trails as possible that day. I was thinkin' Box Canyon for sure, maybe Coke Ovens, Telegraph Canyon, Martinez Cabin,...? Come one come all...

A good day run is in through box canyon, to the cabins for lunch, and out to the coke ovens in the afternoon, cross the river and go back out to florence....
Or, we could go out battleaxe and come out in superior.
8am...if going into Box Canyon, why not just meet at the Price Road turnoff in Florence immediately past the RR tracks. That's the entrance road to go to Box Canyon.
Anyone interested in an overnighter and camping by the river on Saturday night?

Anyway, Bren's B-day is the wekend before, so copious amounts of Knob Creek and coke may be consumed at camp that eve....lol

If my memory serves me correctly, it is state trust land. It would be great to have ya out Ty. Haven't seen ya since Hassayampa a while back and CK before that.
This is shaping up to be a great weekend of camping/wheeling, between SWANKy and AZXC we should have a good turnout. Already 8 trucks going!

It's only state trust land if you come in via Cottonwood Canyon, which we're not. No special permits are needed. Everything is BLM.

My house is way more important than that right now, have to get a bunch of gravel delivered to landscape the front yard, then do some work on painting the windows / doors outside to make her look nice from the street. Got the Dinning Room / Kitchen tiled the last 2 weekends - Looks amazing, wish I had done it while I still lived there. Will give ya a shout tho when I get a chance to spend a few hours on the 4Runner.

Tim, Scott, You guys still planning on doing this run? How do you feel about making this the official Xcursion since no one is going to MOAB this year?
I've had to cancel my plans to go to Moab, but I'm still taking a week off of work in the hopes that I'll be moving back into my house.
The 12th is going to be the only weekend in May that I'll be able to Off-Road. This weekend is out due to still not having my Rear-end replaced. The 20th I'm taking Terra on the Thomas the Train ride.
I'll make this suggestion at the Meeting tonight if you all don't mind.
