Sierra Trek 2021I know is not for awhile Aug 13 -15 just seeing who besides me is considering this Aug trip?
California Sierra Trek 2021: anyone going?
- Thread starter Plumber1
- Start date
I need to sign up. Are you going the whole time or just fordcye?I hate to speak for others but count @Alex01 and myself in.
Probably just Fordyce but I am between projects so it’s a lot easier for me to be MIA
That's what I'm thinking as well. It looks like they run it Thursday and Friday. Whichever works best for you I'm down for.
I’m thinking just Fordyce trail but I’ll probably trailer up to Truckee the day before and motel for the night.

You need to list what is involved and what is expected of you ? What's the good and bad of committing to do this, that way guys know what the are signing up for.
Stack rocks and spot people on winch hill one for one day or three. Like 50 vehicles per run. Small discount for the event. The upside is your supporting an association that invests time and resources into keeping these trails open. No downside if you don’t mind stacking rocks and spotting people for a day.
I have not booked but was thinking of trying to get a group together to run the weekend after or even better a weekday so it's not as busy. I'm available most days of August if anyone else is game.
Not super excited to be in a line of 50 rigs, or whatever it is, but Fordyce is the goal this summer...

Either is a good idea for those looking to challenge themselves & their Jeeps. I hear ya about the 50 Jeeps thing. The wait at the winch hills can eat up some time. During Trek the five winch hills have crews helping everyone get through those tough spots. Very different trail when nobody’s maintaining it. The buggy guys tear it up pretty good. Since I’ve already committed to Trek, August is too soon for me. Maybe sometime after Rubicon depending on the weather & water outflow.
Our club decided last night to run both winch hill 1&2 due to nobody stepping up. Currently our club only has eight members committed. That’s good for one hill, two, not so much. Just thought I’d throw it out there in case someone has the time. Either way, I hope to see you guys up there. Make sure to check the water outflows before committing to a day.

I was going to but decided to just run fordyce in oct. Too many other events going on in august for me to make em all.
OP
How is the water level in Oct. ? I know its the end of summer so it may be lower but you may also get the freak bit of snow
