Broken Arrow Run 4/18/2015

[AZ-Ted]

I would like to join you for the run.  My Xterra looks like it needs ball joints and that won't happen before Saturday.  Would anyone mind if I tag along in my 4runner?  I Would love to hit the trail and meet you guys (haven't done a club run yet).

Thanks
Joe 

Sure, as long as the 4Runner is 4x4.

Nice Find Ted!
I like the map, anyone want a copy for Saturday?
It'll be Black and White Laser.

...I don't think she'll need the pass to park at the end of the street. I know it's required for some trails, or extended stops on trails in the area. I can't seem to find this particular piece of info.

Here is a link to the Red Rocks info:  http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/coconino/recreation/?cid=stelprdb5416207

You can't park on the street (Morgan Rd).  Not sure about parking at the trailhead, but if you are parked on the trail (more than 15 minutes), you need a pass.  Worst case, she could always park at a store or something (or at your camp).

EDIT:  Looking at their map, the Broken Arrow trail is marked by a "T" inside a black circle, and it says "No fee, no pass needed".

I ended up replacing my upper and lower A-Arms due to having a nearly completely toasted bottom joint, I knew it was close but had no idea until I took the tension off and saw the slop in it.  

I found the Best prices online and ordered them, even with shipping it was almost half what it'd cost to buy them from the local parts stores.

Looking forward to this.  Based on the current number of trucks we will likely be breaking the group into 3 runs.  I will be at the trail head to help organize the runs, take pictures, and make sure everything goes smoothly.  After the run look forward to AZXC buying some pizza at the meeting afterwords.

Sounds good.  The 4runner should do alright.  Come to think of it, Broken Arrow was the first trail I took it on many moons ago.  It will be nice to meet you guys.  My wife and I will be coming up from Phx on Saturday morning.

Thanks for the info on the ball joints.  I have had the Calmini kit on my Xterra for 3 years now and I have noticed that they have been going slowly.  I bought the Pathfinder ball joints a while ago but just never got around to swapping them out.

See you guys on Saturday.

Thanks Ted! I couldn't find that for the life of me.

And I didn't consider having her just park at camp. They're aren't looking at any other vehicle information; just mine, and how many vehicles I said would be there.

So, Clifford, I'll leave it up to you. If you can get to Dead Horse by 8, we'll leave your truck at camp and return there when all is said and done. Otherwise, we should be rolling into Sedona by 8:45.

Can wait for this.. I'm assuming we won't be doing soldiers pass?

Soldier's Pass is a very thin trail, if we have interest after lunch we may try to break into small groups and run it.

Oh, forgot to mention I'll be in Blackhawk loop, site 118. We'll move vehicles around when you get here.

Ok so everyone still meeting at McDonald's on carefree tomorrow morning??

[Hammer (Avi)]

Yea, Pinchel and PitSnipe will be at the meeting spot on Carefree to lead the caravan, that is the main group.
