2013 Ouray FSJ Invasion - July 17-19, 2013

Spot 49 is still available.

fulsizjeep, would you please highlight my name and spot 49 in red on the map. Thanks.

I'm only going to hold the reservation for a few more days before I cancel it, so if someone wants please contact me soon. I don't want to spoil the FSJ camp fun by having some stranger end up in the middle of all of you.

#43 has been cancelled and may be open if you can move on it fast enough. It is not close enough to the social spot to be of much concern if someone else fills it while we are there.


Resbum - will do this evening.

There is a chance Krista can't have that week off. This would suck graboid rocks. More as it develops.

I may be solo at Ouray for the week days. Hopefully Krista can come up on Friday after work.

Jerry is taking my spot 56.

WOW, I leave in just a little over a week. It's going to be a long drive (as always) but man I am looking forward to it!

[Dusty]

I wish we could go

[fulsizjeep]

It would be great to see y'all in Ouray Dusty.


Thanks for the info Mike. I got Jerry on the right site now.

EDIT
KOA Map Update: 4 sites are available. Any last minute takers? Contact the member names in red to make arrangements to pick one up.


I am trying to keep up...

If anybody is interested in site 61b let me know. I will be cancelling it on Tue.[July 9]

One last post before I cancel my reservation Monday AM, July 8th.

Spot 49 is still available.

Maybe someone in a spot on the fringes of the group can move over to my spot.

If someone wants it please contact me soon. I don't want to spoil the FSJ camp fun by having some stranger end up in the middle of all of you.

Getting my own act together for Invasion... Krista has to work that week. I will be there at KOA 47A starting Monday afternoon driving the Phoebe and hauling at least one dog. Ryan <gambler68> will be sharing the site coming in Monday and leaving Thursday morning. Krista will come up in the KIA Friday after work. Gonna pick out some moonshine to share for Friday night. Should have some news to share on an order of "it's just a flesh wound" tshirts by this next Tuesday.

Welcome to everyone making the long haul and the short...

Well I am glad she can make it on Friday at least. Sometimes life gets in the way. It's nice you are showing up on Monday. Another earlier bird.

It will be interesting to see where the early birds decide to go on Tuesday....

Nobody coming from Cali... do I dare...? No AC on both rigs.

Cranked up the old 74... today... steering is a bit sluggish... not too sure... tire pressure is good... belt is tight... seems like something is fighting the steering, gas tank is still in the cargo area, I am using a plastic can behind the driver. May be I'll go with the 85, no lift but a skid plate and 150Kmiles less than the 74.

A lot of trials can be done without a lift. There will be plenty of folks to tell you which trails are okay and to help if you get stuck.

My first Ouray in 2002 was liftless... so no problems.... missed Ouray since 09... it is super to meet again.
Thanks for the moral support.

If everything goes right, I will be going next year. Would love to have somebody else drive with.

If all goes well, this time next Sunday I will be hanging out at the KOA. Weather forecast predicts a high around 77 degrees. I might be setting up, I might be set up. The best part is no hurries... Casey, I and the earlier birds might be talking about what trail to take on Monday. I am not sure about dinner. Cheese crisps and salsa for sure. I am also thinking of heating up some tamales.

Nothing like that first day when departure seems so far away. I will have been up since early, the tent matress will feel incredible.

Mike I got dinner Sunday , I'll be up at the KOA Saturday set up and ready to help as others arrive.
Thinking dinner
Thin cut pork chops seasoned our way
Russian finger potato's and onions grilled
Pasta salid

Talked to Doug, will call the KOA in the am to get spot 49...

That's good, I'll be liftless in a non FSJ, first time there. We expect to be along sometime on Tuesday, any idea on what time the KOA will let you check in?

My issue several times.
I think their policy is 1pm.
I'm an early mover, once or twice I have shown up with last nights guests still there.
I just find a tree to nap under.
