4/5 - 4/7/2013: Rug Road, AZ (Near Mammoth, AZ) 4x4 Moderate, Dry Camping

Recommended Posts

Found out today my appointment is at 10:45 not 8:45, so no way I can make it :( Thought about cancelling but they wanted me in same week the got the original results but that was a couple days after I landed at work, so need to go get the new blood work and be smart. Maybe we can do a quick overnighter somewhere the 3rd or 4th weekend of the month :)

 

Sorry you can't go but health is more important. You know there will be other opportunities go get out with the group, don't worry! Be well my friend.

 

 

I don't think the Dodge would do too well on Chiva or parts of the Gap though. :(

Thanks, yeah this is one I can't mess with...possible rare bleeding disorder on top of the one I already have, lol. Wonder if I could catch up to you on the trail though, hmm....:cool:

 

Yeah, don't want to beat on it too bad. Still thinking of grabbing an XJ or older truck to beat on for this reason though.

Yikes! Touch base with us on the Tucson trails thread - your truck would do fine on the Chimney Rock portion IMO.

The first post says no permits needed, but I was looking at Matt's site (Experience Az) and noticed on his write up about Rug Road, it says a state trust land permit is needed. I don't have one currently. Will I (we) need one?

Don't want to pay any fines!:eek::D

Kudos to Curly and Matt for this! I updated the 1st post in this thread with a link to the State Trust Land Permit PDF download.

 

We have run the Rug Road twice in the past when AZ State Trust Land Permit was not required. Now the rules have changed. Currently a permit is required to 'travel on trails or roads which cross State Trust Land' (used to be needed only if you camped on State Trust Land).

 

Since it was our mistaken assumption that the regulations for State Trust Land hadn't changed, I looked into obtaining a group permit for this particular trip - to relieve everyone the burden of obtaining individual permits. But the requirements for the group permit are too many in such short notice.

 

So, HEADS UP Everyone! You MUST obtain and Individual or Family State Trust Land Permit THIS WEEK in order to participate in this trip. Print, fill out and mail ASAP: http://www.azland.gov/programs/natural/recreation_permit.htm

 

Alternately you may visit one of their offices, fill out the application, pay the fee and walk out with the permit.

 

Locations: 1616 W. Adams St. Phoenix, AZ

 

If anyone knows where the other location is please post or PM me ASAP. Thanks guys.

I have to cancel on this trip. I have some contractors working on our house next few weekends. I'm bummed but I'll catch another trip with the group hopefully soon and meet everyone.

I will check what I am about to say tomorrow with Arizona Game and Fish but;

I have been told that if you are in possession of a valid Arizona hunting license then a State Land Trust Permit is not required.
