The hubby and I are leaving Friday morning, should be there early afternoon. This is our first time to the mountains, so nothing crazy from us, so your welcome to cruise with us. Hoping someone will take us under their wing and show us around, or just take us to a fun spot. We are staying at the Best Western as well. Cant wait.... :d

Thanks FunTimes...With getting in later friday might just burn some fuel on the family loop. if i can find the info on staging area

Head south from Best Western on Highway 5 about 1 to 2 clicks to 4 way intersection past top of hill. Turn right and bear left. Stay on main road until you see a cleared parking lot in a logged area. That is the Lower and Upper Westridge Staging Area. Once you are unloaded follow the trail heading west up the hill. You will end up in the old Westridge Staging area. Bear right up the logging road for the Lower Westridge Loop. If you go left along the power line you will end up on the Canoe River FSR which will take you to the Upper Westridge Trail.

You're heading out wednesday nite, snochuk? Nice!!! You goin' with the apprentices or your brother? Did you get your tickets yet?

Sounds like Justin and Sledslut might hook up with us for a couple of days before you get there Ric............:eek::eek: I think the last time I rode with Justin in the Renshaw we had to send out a search party for both Justin and Whitech when they got split up from the group. Got any bribes to offer up for his safe return.;):d:d

I'll bring Dave's ticket for Ed. One of us needs to get a hold of Dean to see where he wants to meet up with us too.

tentitively booked at the premier lodge $89/night room with 4 queens.... no pool or hot tub due to rennovation, but like mikey said... drunks shouldn't play around water anyway..

I'm still looking around, surprisingly there is lots of availability..

Part of me figures it might be best to stay where the party is...the other part says "STFU idiot, don't be stupid..."
