Cindy and I get people asking us about upcoming runs all the time and so for 2015, we decided to change things up a bit and announce a tentative list of bigger runs we hope to get going. Please note that nothing is written in stone and actual dates will be added to the list as we're able to firm things up. For the most part, we just want to make sure you are aware of what we're planning for the year to come and give you a chance to plan for one or more of these runs if they sound interesting you.
January 2-3: Kick Off Run
The WAYALIFE Kick Off Run is our first run of the year and typically, one of our biggest. This will take place out in the Mojave Desert. Everyone is welcome to attend and there are no minimum requirements.
February 14-15 : Presidents Day Weekend Run
I apologize for this being a last minute announcement but, the plan is to head out to Lone Pine and do some fossil hunting and exploring. Everyone is welcome to attend and there are no minimum requirements.
March 7-8 : Newbie Run/Camping Trip
If you live in the SoCal area, are new to the sport of off-roading and/or would just like to learn how to use your Jeep on the trail, we will be planning a newbie run out in the Mojave Desert on, March 7, 2015 and we would love to have you join us. Please DO NOT sign up for this run unless you are a newbie as we will be limiting the amount of people who can attend this run and we would like to allow as many newbies to attend as possible. If you are an experienced Jeeper and would like to help out, please let us know but please know that we will only be taking on as many as is needed for the run.
April 10-19: Pilgrimage to the Promised Land
As most of you know, Cindy and I typically make a trek out to Moab every year during EJS but this year, we're hoping to do things a little differently and go off season. And, to change things up even more, we plan on turning this trip into a trek up the Colorado River that will allow us to take in the sights and hit trails along the way. Sorry, this trip is currently full.
May 22-25 : Kick-Off to Summer Camping Trip
Memorial Day weekend marks the beginning of summer for Cindy and I, it's typically when we start heading back out specifically to do some camping. For those of you who are interested, this will be a scenic run/camping trip out in the Nevada mountains and we'd love to have you join us. Space may be limited. We will not be taking any sign-ups until the official thread for this run has been started.
June 13-17 : California or Bust - The Final Stretch (Nevada to California)
As some of you may know, our 2014 California or Bust trip was unexpectedly cut short about half way through Nevada and it has always been our plan to regroup and complete it. And, to help make our 2015 home stretch more interesting, we will be starting our trip from Carson City, make our way across the Loneliest Highway to Ely and explore some remote locations along the way. On our way to California, we will do a little camping, cross the 40 mile desert and stay in historic towns. As was the case last year, everyone is welcome to join us but, due to limited accommodation space, there will be a limit on the size of our group. Also, you will not be required to run the entire trip. We will not be taking any sign-ups until the official thread for this run has been started.
July 14-16 : Rockin Rubicon Run
This of course is our big annual Rubicon run that we do every year and as a special bonus, we will have some members from the East Coast joining us. We do have minimum requirements to join us and unfortunately, we do have a cap on how many people can attend. We will not be taking any sign-ups until the official thread for this run has been started.
August : Dusy Ershim Run
September : End of Summer Camping Trip
October : WAYALIFE Wanderlust
For your benefit, many of these runs will have minimum requirements and to help keep things manageable, most will have a cap as to how many people can attend. Please note that we will NOT be signing anyone up for any of the runs in question until an official thread for it has been started. At that point and time, sign-ups will be on a first come first serve basis. Throughout the year, we will also be doing miscellaneous runs in between what is listed above and we will announce them separately.
Please let me know if you have any questions and I hope to see you out on the trail.
