Mark Mulkern from Boston will be there. 8 times in a row. This should say something about the event. I just talked to Carl Buckingham and in case he didn't describe the site earlier. It is a meadow in a cirque at 9000 feet nestled in between peaks going straight up with water falls all around and hot springs to soak in every night after a hard day on the most "KILLER" trails yet (13,000 to 14,000 ft.). How many people can say they have been over 13,000 ft. other than in an airliner let a lone have done it in a Power Wagon? If you like living on the edge in a vehicle from another time the way it was meant to be, you can do it here. I have literally seen women cry in terror. This is no bull, you sign a waiver, indemnification and hold harmless agreement. Or you can take a nice easy trail for your trailer queen and all levels of trails in between. It's all here. If you can only do one thing this year, forget the newest, biggest rollercoaster or a ride on the space shuttle, this is it. Best part is if you don't have a truck or can't get one out there, you can still get a ride with some of the nicest people you will ever meet (or trust your life to). No one is ever left behind for the trail ride each day. And we never leave any body on the mountain. We always recover.
