Thanks for the heads up. Looks like the festival opens at 10, so I am hoping traffic won't be too bad when some of us roll through the area.

It's when you're trying to get back home in the afternoon that it effects you. I know from my past experiences the traffic through Gold Canyon is heavy then.

Sign me up, please - are radio's a must-have?  Anyone have a loner if so?

I added you in. Radios are good to have on these runs, I may have a spare you can borrow.  I'll test it out this week.

Thankyou - intend to get a radio but don’t want to rush the purchase.

Welcome to the club! Enjoy the run with Shellback and the crew - they're a lot of fun!

 

If you're looking to get started with a GMRS radio, there are pair of pretty good threads here on the forum on the topic you might find interesting:

 

 

• GMRS on a Budget
• GMRS for Beginners

No worries at all and welcome to club!

 

The threads 4x4tographer referred to are excellent threads. Post up any questions you may have there, any one of us will be happy to help answer.
