May 27 - 30 at Anderson Dry Lake in Johnson Valley!

"The Hi Desert Round-up is a fund raising event for California Association of 4 Wheel Drive Clubs Inc. The event is four days of off-roading, games, food and fun. The Hi Desert Round-up will now take place in Anderson Dry Lake in Johnson Valley. It is a popular fun-filled getaway weekend for singles, couples and families who enjoy camping, four-wheeling, playing games, winning prizes and just going out to relax away from the city. The terrain is from sandy to extremely rocky, from flat washes to monster hills so be prepared for some great four-wheeling fun!

I'll be there. BTW, Roger is leading a run to the Fry Mountain mines as part of HDR.

[Roger]

I'm all for having an MJR Camping area!

[Jason]

As of right now, I will be attending. I am looking forward to the new area.

[Lumpy Grits]

Why did they leave the old spot?

[Jason]

I read that it seemed time for a location change. HDR used to be out towards Randsburg and I think it was known as the Randsburg Round Up. I don't know when they moved to Stoddard Valley but I'm sure with the lower turnout the event has been getting each year someone thought they might attract more people with a location change.

[Lumpy Grits]

Has not been at R'burg in about 15 yrs. or more.

I might come up for the day and raffle, but no more camping for me until I get a trailer. Losing tents every outing and having to cut the trip short has got old.

[MyBrokenJeep]

So, does anyone have a preferred or recommended spot for the MJR campsite this year? If so, post up the coordinates... Thanks!

[Zoobi]

I'll be there too.
As for how long HDR has been in Stoddard, my son is 19 and he wasn't born yet when I attended my first one. I was told it had been there for a couple of years before me.

[Ol Man]

I will be there camping with my club On the Rocks. We are the club that has been running the Teeter Totter for close to the last ten years.

[RallyeX]

We should be there if my Rock Jock 60 for the rear of my TJ gets here in time and I get it in.
