I hear that Camp Far West is the place to be for Father's Day if you are into boating, which is the best day to go Saturday or Sunday?
I didn't see any threads pertaining to Camp Far West in the Jets section, but I did see a thread over in the V-Drive section.
Do any jet boats show up for this event, if so, who is coming?

ya fathers day is pretty fun up there. all the reserved camp sites I believe are taken already but there are some first come first serve stuff left. I know that at least me and 4 other jets will be up there and hopefully another guy that was up there on memorial day with his blown alcohol hydro...watch out for the damn waverunners though. :mad: 1/4 mile cove is where we will all be at on the south end of the lake. :crossx: :crossx: :crossx: :crossx:

Doesn't look like there will be much of a turnout as far as jets

there will be a few coming down from placerville area and some will come up from the lake hogan area from the people I have talked too, i would guess about 60-70 jets showing up if memorial day was any indicator...we'll see! :crossx:

CFW goes all the week before too. The weekend is the climax and usually has a band on Sat. night.

it's a lake. Here's the Mapquest directions
Sacramento to Camp Far West (http://www.mapquest.com/directions/main.adp?go=1&do=nw&rmm=1&pn1x=&a1x=&c1x=&s1x=&z1x=&un=m&qc=Camps&cl=EN&qq=21LTZ%252flnQEOzuRZgBVxPEqesEaFaAvA5XF9l3ew1MJ3 AE0G2k9jeMaqrw6aEX1mkd9e%252fxFj2nWICkaOylKnlABJZA xSFjsgIw%252fvs3yKrbFheoRaMN6pg8hkSwh%252beIUY3auD TH8%252blGZCtTWJXT%252fUoc6cVVs5SU4R592FgLlZxEZtDg XOGpLKkctGNKD3MuUnpHbodVJbpc1wd%252fPgLarFXfiXgZHv YPZYhnCEakFuEICK50lozgcRKoVHCBYefsgmwY4k8%252fHPjz 761Qh1gPk6QjADNM5TXhnltfBYCxxFGAE%252fI6zV0Mq5bswy j%252fdjyKnNjUbrm8zXabp6I1bj93aUewudOtzicxfQHaJ2xc oq3WiA%253d&ct=NA&q=camp+far+west&rsres=1&1y=US&1ffi=&1l=&1g=&1pl=&1v=&1n=&1pn=&1a=&1c=sacramento&1s=ca&1z=&panelbtn=1&2y=US&2ffi=1&2l=dme2JXHSJIQ%253d&2g=Cy8MNobKs%252bIxfMRDb%252bSIIg%253d%253d&2pl=916-408-5037&2v=ADDRESS&2n=&2pn=Camp+Far+West+Lake&2a=9300+Mccourtney+Rd&2c=Lincoln&2s=CA&2z=95648)

There is a rumor of a blown nitro jet running this weekend.

I would recommend taking Wise Rd instead of Rioso rd. Wise Rd is a lot smoother. Wise is 1.5 miles out of Lincoln. Small sign. Turn rt, second stop sign is McCourtney. Turn left. 9 miles to south ramp gate.
