WS4W Club Calendar
For those of you interested in the trip to Cody WY in August – we talked with Terry this morning and he is all in for leading the portion of the Morrison Jeep Road which can be driven these days (coming in from the north and driving south as far as the switchbacks).
That trip will be on Friday, August 11th and will leave from the Exxon gas station at the intersection of 16th street and WY highway 120 in Cody at 8:30am. Have all the usuals.
This trail starts South of Cody, WY and heads southwest to the site of Kirwin, a gold-mining ghost town situated at 9,200. feet. Plan to meet at the Ivy Inn, Best Western Motel in Cody WY (1800 8th ST). Leave at 9am; bring lunch, water, snacks and have full tank of gas. Trail is 27.5 miles long and requires 4X4 capability for the last 7.5 miles. Have not previously run this trail but would estimate rating at 4.
Lester and Ruth S. expect to drive the Stony Pass Trail this coming Wednesday, August 30. After the Pass, we also expect to continue on as far as Pole Creek for lunch and then return. We do not plan to go up to Buffalo Boy Tram House or out to Kite Lake.
If interested, please meet at South City Market at 9:00am with a full tank of gas, lunch, water and snacks. We will make a stop at the station in Silverton to air down before starting the trail.
The part of Stony Pass and beyond that we are doing is rated as easy / moderate and is about 12 miles in length.
Lester and Ruth will lead a trail ride into Eureka Gulch in the Silverton area on Monday Sept 4th. If time allows, we will then go into Minnie (and possibly Maggie)Gulch.
If interested, please plan to meet us at South City Market at 8:45am on the 4th. Have a full tank of gas, lunch, water, snacks, etc. We will stop at the gas station in Silverton to air down and regroup. Let us know if we should expect you to meet us in Silverton.
Plan to use Club Radio Channel 5.
Eureka Gulch Trail is rated Easy in our Guide Book. Last time we drove Minnie or Maggie they were also easy.
