    We've been considering such events but I can't even find the date. Is it just my computer? Something isn't loading?

    Boggs Demonstration State Forest, March 31st, 2007.

    It took a while for me to find the date, too. It's at the very top top top of the page on the right.

    Wow, great page design. It blends right into the bars across the IE window.

    There's so much going on this time of year. AGA, are you doing it?

    Yeah, I was thinking the same thing about their page design. Their alternate date is shown, but you really had to search for the actual date.

    I won't be doing it. I don't even know where Boggs Demonstration State Forest is. I looked at their map and couldn't figure it out. And the weather could be kind of iffy in March! 8-hour solo in the rain/mud would be really unpleasant!!!

    I'm doing 24-hours of Adrenalin again in Monterey in June. I'm doing 8-hour solo. They also have an 8-hour 2-man class and a bunch of 24-hour classes.

    It looks like it is between Lake County and Sonoma County - way north, off the 29. Has to be in Sonoma County for the beneficiary.

    I will give a report once the GP has done it.

    Boggs Mtn is near Cobb Mtn, the turn around for the Davis 300k brevet. It's north past Middletown on 175. I think the forest staff built the trails for training purposes. I'm dredging this up out of the murkey depths of my gray matter, what little there is.

    Why is it a "demonstration state forest"? What is that? Like it's a forest trying to demonstrate something??

    MP, I just looked it up. Cobb is only 23 miles north of Calistoga and 7 miles north of Midddletown, though it is the last place up there to get supplies. you guys were very close on the Davis Double. On the DD, didn't you hang a right at Middletown and head for Lower Lake? Only way to get around Lake Berryessa.
