It appears that Descend on Bend has sold out, so hopefully you all got your tickets and everything goes off smoothly.

In the meantime, those crazy Vanagon folk have a new Descent scheduled for the other bookend of summer, Memorial Day weekend.
https://www.descendon.com/

I just stumbled on it by accident, and it’s coming up soon. If it’s located where I think it is, there’s tons of fun trails for MTB and MX too, I think. I haven’t been there, but there was a race I always to do.

Anyone planning on attending either Descent?

just ordered a ticket for Lost Sierra, since Bend is sold out!

will be picking up my van after 4 months of work this Tuesday, so I'm excited to take it out!

Yup I think there were 76 tickets left when I bought mine and they were sold out less than 48 hours later.

Now all I have to do is make my van running and drivable, move to Colorado, get my water and power systems set up on the van, do some test camps and wait until September to make the drive to Oregon.

I think they are only available for Descend on Lost Sierra this weekend in Portola California. We head out early Friday morning for that one.
