Invasion 2020

Post by will e »

The dates are set! July 22,23 and 24.

The reservation rules have changed. THanks casey for this update:
viewtopic.php?f=27&t=17965



Some folks arrive earlier in the week. Many as early as Sunday. We are going to do another Monday morning breakfast. Sign up here: http://www.fsjnetwork.com/forum/viewtop ... 27&t=17520

There will be another pot luck and raffle on Thursday. Always a good time and for a good cause: Ouray Mountain Rescue.

The FSJ Invasion is famously unorganized. Most trail runs are decided at the KOA each morning. Which trails are being run and the start times are not planned in advance. Folks just get together and decide what to run. (Sometimes the night before some decisions are made). There is no official trail lead and no one is in charge or responsible for the group.

It's a fun time for new folks and old friends to get together and see the beautiful Colorado landscape.

Accommodations:
Will E - Cabin (TBD)
Austin - 60
haynesm - a tent site
Kenny 47D
Jason 47A
Cameron 49
Csuengr
Simba - A cabin
Rainman

Unknown sites but indicated they will be joining us

I was wondering if anyone was going to work on a 'map' of who's camping where. I think I'm going to call and reserve spot 47b, c, or d.

If folks will post up here where they are staying I will try to work up a map.
But many don't use this board anymore and do a lot of their communicating on facebook. I don't have a facebook account so I can't follow along.

Having a map is fun but not a requirement, we did okay this year without one. Although sometimes I felt like I was the only one there.

Well, I can do the map thing pretty easily, I think, and I do the facebook thingy, so I could cross post.

Cool. If you want to help out, as we get a bit further along, send me a link to a map and I will post it up in the first post on this thread. Thanks!

I offer this to the discussion. It is the current KOA map for reference.

You can also download it in larger layout in the PDF.

Thanks flint, I tried to add the PDF file I downloaded from the website to my post, but the forum said the file size was too big. I was just going to make a screenshot of it with names added to post here once I knew where anyone was camping. I need to call Dave today and reserve a spot.

Mine's running and driving, still no 4x4, but I do have the new transfer case ready to go in. This buying a house nonsense my wife has re-started might throw a rather large wrench into plans, but I do want to come with my wagoneer next year. It's on my calendar.

Just booked cabin 21. Have Fuel Injection on the truck now, so we should be good to go this time. Scott will be there with me, and I am trying to get a big trailer to rent to bring both my J10 and his J20.

Hatchet Jack, we will want shirts, so I will be watching to place an order.

I checked on mine today and some how I have site 112 instead of 59 [which is better for us]
If you have a site reserved you need to call and confirm it or you may lose it.

I have signed up for a tent spot. Three nights 22, 23, 24. Koa said they would put me in the full size jeep group in a tent site. Koa did not know what number they would give me.
See you all in July

Awesome! We'll put you down on the list! Any chance you can show up earlier? Three days never seems like enough.

Awesome! Three days will still be very fun! I will add you to the map if I can ascertain where they’ve placed you.

Ouray is this year! We've made it to 2020. Time to start thinking of possible 'themes' for the gathering.
