Back to Moab in 2022 {?}

 


With the passing of another one of our attendees from Moab 2015, Idaho Larry, {that makes 4} I decided to poke the nest and see if I could gather up another group, old and new TW Riders, and do Moab again...it's been ongoing since about 2013 {except the COVID Bulllshit Lockdown of 2020}, but there has never been a year like 2015 when the late Ron from Boise, guided about 3 dozen of us TW200 riders to Moab and Canyonlands NP via the TW Forum {link below}...sadly, Ron only stayed a couple of days, got ill, headed home and passed away a month or so later...the Head Cook Mel Lininger passed about 10 months ago, and Idaho Larry just last week...we never have found out what happened to Psycho Mike, dead or alive?  Nobody in the group really knows, and the last we heard was when he and Mel did Alaska in 2016 on the TWs....

So anyway I put out a couple of dates, late March and Mid to late October of 2022...the vote will go on until this October 21st, and we will see what we have...lots of great interest so far, and hopefully we can work this out...I would like to go out that way one more time, before I hang up the riding boots.
