Next years EJS is March 19 - 27, 2005. (from http://www.rr4w.com/) The week after is sweet, temps are cool, not too hot maybe a little rain. The trails aren't crowded. If you have the time you can hit the last weekend of the safari and catch the vendors show then wheel.

Thats what we do. we show up the thurs night before big saturday. do a rigistered trail, check out the Expo, then wave to the masses as they leave and we enjoy a much quieter week with less traffic on the trails.

I've been in the area a couple of times in Feb. Be prepared for very cold nights and a real possibility of snow.

So for a guy with no windsheld and likes to piss and moan............... I think I will not go in Feb.

May sounds good, How about it Damon?

I plan to go for the first time this year. Going with some other buddys who have gone the last couple of years. I think we plan to do what they said in the above posts. Hit the EJS on the last 2 days and then hang out for a few more after everyone leaves. Maybe we can get a group together and all go down?? That could be fun.............. :smokin:

you'll freeze your boys off at night... maybe during the day too... plus the town kinda empties out (tourist related shops etc) for the skii season up north etc.
