Are you still planning to go in July?
I am planning to go. I'm near Santa Cruz, but would love to meet somewhere - say Los Banos or Madera, depending on which highway you choose.

Hi Dan.
I am still planning to depart the Sacramento area and go east to Carson City, then south on US 395 to Death Valley.
I will over night before Death Valley in the Lone Pine area.

This thread has more details.
 
Any word on if Expo is going to happen? They need to limit the nut to butt camping.

We have been told all three Expos are going to happen, but who knows what will rally happen.

Really hope that comes to pass Kent! We were booked for Expo Mountain West this year and it would be great if we could get it in for 2021. Does OB plan to be at both W Expos if possible? Might see you there :-)

We will be at all three if they happen, but that is dependent on the Expo team. Once we get closer and get a better feel for what's going on I will start looking for volunteers for our booths. I can offer passes and camping in exchange for time in the booth for three days. But this all depends on the Covid situation at the time.

Good to know Kent. Will be in touch if it is on and we can get there.

Kent, when the details come out on flagstaff expo can you hit me up? I'm interested in volunteering at the booth. I just plenty of notice to reschedule my clients.
 
Morning all! As of now I am still planning on attending in September, or whenever it ends up being.
Coming out of the Sacramento area, and looking for a travel group. Happy to coordinate one, or join in on another.
