somewhere between June 1st and August 31st... Not sure yet. Those were the best months per the folks on Pirate. I need to research the weather out there and get an idea of when rain is most/least likely.

The last week of June and the first week of July might be good. Maybe we can take advantage of a having a holiday on the 4th?

Can do! Looking forward to sitting around the camp fire and having a few cold ones. I plan on camping, no hotel rooms for me! {letseat}

Jeremy/Ben,

Maybe we should start a list of who has what for spare parts for this trip and who is willing to share them!

Chuck, I think everybody here feels the same way I do. I will give a part to somebody who needs it no problem. I will bill you later! :D

I have locked in and confirmed this trip. Good read by the way.
somewhere between June 1st and August 31st..

It's pretty hard to plan for it or lock it in without dates, so let's narrow it down some.

Based on the time period you have previously specified, and using the 10 days vacation and weekends, you need a 16 day spread starting on Saturday.  With the trail closed 2 weeks from July 24-August 8 for the Jamboree, the Saturday departure dates are limited unless you want to participate in one of the 4 day or 3 day Jamborees.  There are 2 holidays that you could take advantage of that effect 4 of the possible dates, but I would like to avoid those with July 4th in them.

Possible Departure Saturdays:

May 29           (includes Memorial Day)
June 5           
June 12
June 19          (includes July 4th)
June 26          (includes July 4th)
July 3             (includes July 4th)
July 10
August 7
August 14

Who is in for this trip?

When is the best time to ride the Rubicon Trail?
June, July, August and September are the best times to run the trail (except for the two weeks from the end of July to the first weekend of August when the trail is closed to all but Jamboree participants). There's a big chance of snow any other time; and we should not be on the trail during wet winter/spring months when damage is done to the trail. It's just best to wait until Summer and early Fall. Run the trail when you make dust.
