High Desert Cruisers Club Meetings and Events

Details: This will be our eighth annual run to get Xmas trees in the Jemez Mountains and probably our best attended event. We will obtain tree permits at the Walatowa Visitor Center on the Pueblo of Jemez. Permits have been $10 in the past. Plan on an all day excursion, and if it snows it could be a very long, enjoyable day. Stock vehicles and families are welcome. Participants should come prepared for a cold day in the snow, which can include snow toys for the kids. The adults should bring their own toys (recovery gear) including tools, straps, shackles, winches, snatch blocks, tire chains, high-lift jacks, and a way to air up your tires at the end of the day. We share, so don't worry about having all this stuff. Vehicle to vehicle communication is important so a CB radio is highly recommend. We have loaner radios if you need one, just let us know ahead of time. Folks should also come prepared to stay in their vehicle over night (food, water, warm sleeping bags). It's never happened, but could. We usually finish the day with dinner in Jemez Springs.

Where to Meet: Meet at the gas station on the south east corner of Hwy 550 and Hwy 528 in Rio Rancho.
