Yeah I'm still in, my brother and/or Soya I don't know. By friday I'll let you guys know. If they are riding with me then there is a good chance we'll drive together. If not I might take Greg up on his offer or even offer a carpool option to anyone near Rockford. I'm still planning on going I want to hit that place up more time before snow piles up.

heck, I stood at the top of a Lake Michigan bluff in 25 degree temps with a 30mph wind to fly slope sailplanes. This will be a piece of cake!

Hey guys, have fun at the gtg and take lots of pics. Maybe that will motivate me to make the trip next spring. Believe me, it's on my list of "must hit" spots. I love camping and rc'ing, so I'm sure I'll get there eventually...run a pack for me!

T.D.

Gozer · 11-14-2008, 01:13 PM

Does someone have a good map/driving instruction on how to get there? If so could you please post it. I know it's on th eoverall crawler map of wisconsin but is that the parking lot were lookin for.

MrNate · 11-14-2008, 01:40 PM

This is from the parks website and will take you in the North entrance, which I believe is where we are meeting.

Directions Coming From The South: From Interstate 90-94 just take exit 106 to Highway 33. Take a right at the stop sign and go to Baraboo. (13 miles) When you get to Baraboo Take a left at the 2nd stop light. (This is Business Hwy 12) Then go through town and watch for a sign to the park. You will turn left on Highway 123 and follow it straight out to the park. Coming From The North or Wisconsin Dells: Just take Highway 12 south (Exit 92) and go about 1 mile past Baraboo (approximately 14 miles). Take a left on Highway 159. This will bring you to Highway 123. Take a right and follow into the park.

If you don't have a state park sticker, it's $7 for cars with WI plates and $10 for non-resident plates for a daily pass.

Yeah we had the same deal going on. A construction company was digging Thursday and they hit a fiber optic cable the whole Comcast thing went down for the half of the customers. It was in the paper today.

slick · 11-15-2008, 12:36 PM

Looks like I'll be heading to Devils Lake as well. Going to have to dress warm looks like it's going to be a chilly one, but should be a good time!

Anyone bringing gates to mess around with?

I'm can't wait to run the Losi with the new sneakers mounted up! The kids are ready for some action.

thumbman · 11-15-2008, 01:35 PM

Still planning on going, can't wait to see how the 2.2 does on real rocks.

Due to weather and work schedules, I didn't get out camping/rc'ing nearly as much as I wanted to. By next spring, I'll have two trail trucks and a decent crawler to run wit ya'z! Maybe a 4x4 basher as well. If it wasn't for the 4 hour round trip drive, I'd be there this time. I have a "redneck RV" 3/4 ton van for camping and rc outtings, so I'd be set

. Have fun guys!

Slick, schmenzer and I had a blast to day, I glad you two joined me for some fun to day. Will have to do it again when the weather warms up in the spring. Hopefully you two didn't hit snow like I did on the way home, it was coming down good when I hit Beliot. I have to make some changes to make to the 2.2 but it did very well.

I have some pics on my phone, will try to get them up soon.
