Ronnie: will you take Hwy 290 or I 10 to get to Big Bend? I will take Hwy 290
to I 20. Just curious to see if we should try coordinating a meet up and cruise
together? Maybe in Austin or Junction?

Cool. Junction seems about right for a split drive (time-wise) from Austin.

I am planning on it. I camped along the way going down and coming back. 12
hours of driving a bus is tough on my old butt.

And hot springs aren't that far away either if I remember. Think you'll make
it?

Good plan. I went to Rio Grande Village in the Spring after the classic. Very
few people around. The road going to the Gravel Pit camping and La Clocha
are fair. Past there the roads are pretty tough (I was in my son's 4x4. We
drove Glenn Springs Road and needed it). I camped at the Chisos lodge
campground. Very cool drive into the lodge, FIRST GEAR going up the lodge and
I wondered if that was enough a few times.

Okay, seems we have interest in Big Bend this year. The challenge is cruising
together. Not going to happen. !!!!
There is a shorter, 10 hour route for the DFW crew rather than driving via
Austin.
The general concensus is to leave on 12/26.
Due to the challenge of coordinating a cruise, I propose: We meet at Rio
Grande Campground on Thursday, 12/27. Sites are not reserverable this time of
year so we should have no problem. Note there are no hookups here, or anywhere
in the park. Que paso? NO HOOKUPS ANYWHERE IN THE PARK.
On Wednesday we can decide as a group to move to another location either up the
mountain or deeper into the Big Bend or not.
Alternative ideas or suggestions? Bark now rather than later.
Please, someone post on facebook.
Duncan
