US West Mojave Preserve Trail Guardian Event

[Kent R]

I'm new to all of this, so I need some additional information. Directions to meetup locations for both Thursday and Friday? What equipment do you need to bring for work details? Is this a rain or shine event? Anything else for newbie?

Buddy,
As I said above, the attendee message will go out tomorrow morning with all the details of the event. If you haven't already please RSVP using the Rally Point

FYI, first attendee message sent this morning, check your forum messages

 

[Buddyb]

I got your message, and I am planning on arriving Thursday.

Great idea, next year I’m in.
I’m taking a couple buddy's on the Mojave Trail the following week.

Any chance I can get an update on trail conditions after your trip. Sounds like the monsoon did some damage.
Cheers

Bob,
you can ask that question here after the event, someone will have a report. I will be back in the office on Wednesday October 19 and can reply if you message me @Kent R

FYI, we are in the Mojave every October and March for Trail Guardian Events.

WE STILL COULD USE A FEW MORE MEMBERS AT THIS EVENT
This year we will have a limit of 75 rigs up from 50, this is due to the large amount of work that the storms has added.

I’d like to get there Thursday night but more likely Friday. I trust you’ll have something for a 63 year old guy to do! My wife is working our anniversary weekend so I’m free to head down to one of my favorite locations.

In conjunction with the National Park Service (NPS) and the Mojave Desert Land Trust (MDLT), Overland Bound will be taking on several projects over two days.
Please only sign up if you are going to be able to stay the entire work day.

WE HAVE OPENINGS, JUST USE THE RALLY POINT LINK IF YOU CAN MAKE IT

Can you send me the coordinates for the Thursday meet up point at Needles? I can’t seem to find where those are at in all the messaging.
Thanks,

Did someone post the .gpx for this yet? I can't get it from the location tab.

Thank you for putting up all the photos! It was really nice working/driving with you!
Hope to see you there next year!
I have a great shot of you on that tricky part of the road I’ll try to upload later.
