Wow, T-Shirt design and schedule posted up less than a month after the event. Are you going to start the picture thread next :haha:
 
I am really interested in Pritchette and Behind the Rocks :)

All this talk has me stressed about getting ready lol

One thing I've learned organizing this event is to strike while the iron is hot. I try to get as much done as I can when I'm motivated.

Actually I do have registration ready to go but I don't want that to open until after Jan 1.

BB15 picture thread and trail leader volunteers next. .... LOL

That gives me an idea....
 
kudos to you Scott!
always a job well done, and underappreciated!
 
I am really interested in Pritchette and Behind the Rocks :)

All this talk has be stressed about getting ready lol

I feel like Pritchette is the snobby way of saying Pritchett... LOL

I do think I might throw Behind the Rocks in Saturday.
 
A nice easy (no body damage) trail would be great. Some thing that one can drive and just look and enjoy the views. Maybe some thing in one of the national parks. I know they charge admission but there are ways into canyons lands where you do not enter through the gate!

We can't officially offer guided runs into the parks.

For 3 or 4 years I offered what I would consider a scenic run but at best 2 or 3 trucks would show and it's hard to get trail leaders for those runs.

All that being said I could throw Chicken Corners on the menu for Saturday. I would like for more people to be comfortable bringing more stockish trucks to Blazer Bash. Bearing in mind those that sign up may have to guide themselves but I can provide at least a handout with some guidance.

As for trails on the list now I've always loved the views on Gold Bar Rim which is the major part of the Crack n Back run. Hell's Revenge is great for awesome Moab vistas as well.
 
I guess I'll have to do a recon run before hand! Here is what I was thinking the back way into Arches is Willow Springs Road (I exited park in 2006 via it). So I guess that means I am front door of a convoy into Arches!!!
That's fine if you want to do that but it will have to be on your own. I can't list a sign up for it through the registration. Just start a new thread about this specifically.

Are you going to need to borrow the duck for you convoy? :D
 
Don't forget there is a $10 entry fee for Arches Nat'l Park.

If it were me, I would choose Canyonlands. You could run the Shafer Switchbacks and Potash Road. Even venture out onto White Rim Road. We've done those in a Ford Econoline big passenger van.
 
And 50% of the trucks won't be ready the week before.
