That weekend I would "typically" be nearby - camping at 8,000', 11 miles due west of Big Pine and hanging with a core group of High School hooligans reliving the "old days".
Beware it is also the weekend of the Eastern Sierra Trout Season Opener (another reason I would be in Big Pine) and there will be hordes of drunken fishermen travelling 395 from Thursday through Monday (DAMHIK).
No snowpack means no skiers headed to Mammoth this year but there are also the mountain bikers that inhabit the area.
And this is also (usually) the same weekend as the Laughlin River Run, so there will be plenty of Garage Queens and Poseurs littering 395 from top to bottom as well.
Have fun !! :2thumbup:

Hi Johnny,
I will be in Mariposa April 25 - 27.
Doing a major remodel on the house.
I have been going up there almost every week.
I'm getting Burnt Out.
We installed new trusses last weekend.
New Roof should be done this week.
You are welcome to come by have a Brewsky.
Maybe we could hook up for a Breakfest, Lunch or Dinner.
Bernie in So. Cal.

rodger that...
been over all up in there on trout day before... itsa calamity...
thanks for the heads up... you oughta roll it out with us...
Sadly, circumstances prevent me from attending the Big Pine Bash commonly known to perennial attendees as The Trip of the Century again this year (I'm missing too many lately even though this is the 38th year).
That also means I won't be able to roll wit y'allz either.... :(
-
I'm in. :2thumbup: I'll work on making hotel reservations over the next few days.
-
rodger that latunabernie... will figger it out...

-
That 8 am KSU in Pioneer looks good.... see ya there. :2thumbup: We needs more wild motodebauchers for this epic meet. Who else is in?
-

I like me some Fallbrook Gold - the red and hairy avos.... not that aspergrass from stockton that incites race riots and makes my wee stinky.... OK we needs ourselves a plan B cuz I am used to 80 degrees plus or minus 10 and that's how I roll....
