Monday 1/17/05 Drive 7AM Greenback & Auburn-Folsom Rd.
I'll move this to the events section after a day or two of exposure.
We kicked around the idea of a drive on Monday since a lot of us (sorry Scott & Aaron) will be off of work. Obviously we cannot hit Mosquito Ridge or WWS due to snow (although we could hit 75-80% of Mosquito Ridge). So maybe one of Alan's suggestions from last time would be better. Let me know what you all think:
We could combine a few *somehow* (I'm too lazy to search out everything right now):

I thought about the Lake Berryessa area too, but it may be a little too busy on the Holiday. Feel free to offer up other suggestions.

all those other days we work and take a credit on those days to use between x-mas eve and new years, that way we get a week and a half break without using any vacation days.

I thought about Sunday, but the original idea was to accomodate some folks who had Monday off anyway. We'll see if this even happens...

We need a time and a route. Please make some suggestions. The last time I put a drive together, only two people showed up and I was one of them.

We could also do Mosquito Ridge Road (or most of it). I would of course propose the long way:
Depart Aubrun-Folsom & Greenback
Through Folsom to Salmon Falls Road
Salmon Falls to HWY49
Left on HWY49 and down to the river
Right over the bridge to Old Foresthill Road
Follow that to the New Foresthill Road
Take that out to Mosquito Ridge Road
