Anybody want to hit Lake Mead Aug 28-30?

I am thinking of heading up and staying in a comp room at the Green Valley Ranch Resort and launching out of Calville. Anybody else want to go and hit Mead?

F Mead!
:D :D :D :) :) :)

You can't be fighting that battle on two fronts....
Okay let's go for three! Put up a thread about Powell! :D :D :D :) :) :)

Um, we're there every weekend...
So, sure! We'll see you out there! :D

I may be interested in heading up there--I'd stay with friends in Boulder City! I love MEAD :) We'll have to see how the AMEX gas bill is looking come August :rolleyes:

Mead is great Huge body of water, except when the wind blows. Love going there and staying at the Fiesta Henderson Casino.

Hey Tom, that sounds pretty good.... I need to check with Vicki and see when school starts back up for her... Remind me at the regatta (early so I am not drunk yet!) You are going to the regatta right?

I was actually thinking about doing a trip out there that weekend and maybe staying through Tuesday or Wednesday. I have not been out to Mead since I was a kid and I remember the last time I went with my folks years ago, the wind was blowing like hell and we didn't even end up launching the boat. I want to try it out though. I'm kinda burned out on the crowds at Havasu and want to try something different. Where is the best place to launch and should I have any worries being out there in my 24' boat?

Wave at "The Ponderosa" as you motor by.

Calville is a nce launch ramp nice docks a bit of a hike for who ever is parking the truck and trailer. We launch there all the time with no issues other than the newbies and lake lice.
