That's my stomping grounds. I have a couple of twisty back roads for you. One of the visitor's centers is closed, but the lot is open. Clearwater Lake is a good place to take a break too. You can't beat it if it's a clear day. I take all my visiting NJ relatives there.

Got people coming out of the woodwork!!! Some of you I didn't know existed. So more plans are coming. Will be a fun drive, and get together. Something new for the northwest XF owners. I think we are the only area that hasn't had a get together.

I'll be there camping the following weekend, but I'd still like to make the run...only thing that would stop me would be if my SRT-6 sells before then!

Sorry everyone. I have been extremely busy. I have actually only been on one time since I saw Old School. About 2 weeks ago. I will call him tonight and post within 24 hrs.

Okay here is the quickest response ever. We will keep it simple and we can decide where and when to eat, when we finally all hookup. Here is a map of Castle Rock and the freeway we will take (504). Take exit 49 and take a right, heading west (yes west) and there is a park-n-ride about 200 ft. We then will head east for about an hour drive. Lets all meet there at 9 am. Cool?

PS. Bring cameras.

Thanks Old School!!!

Scott; I'll pre run it and get back to you with specifics. There is no cell signal on 504 from about 4 miles East of the freeway. Ditto on the cameras, and maybe some binoculars. Also, it's usually 15* or so colder than in town. Pray for a sunny day!
