I think it's Slickrock; Porcupine Rim would require significant
shuttling. I'm sure Rolf was going back and forth on what the ride
would be; last year he was talking about shuttling up to a new section
of Porcupine Rim that would make it all downhill, but he couldn't get
permits for the new section.

I sent mail to Rolf about the discrepancy (which I also noticed).

This looks really awesome, I'm really tempted to go. I was wondering
though what airport is closest to it, and how hard it would be to get
one's self to and from the airport?

The closest airport is Grand Junction, Colorado, but it's a pretty
small airport that's hard to get cheap flights into. Most people fly
into Salt Lake City and rent a car (4 hour drive). There should be
people open to ride-sharing.

It *is* really awesome.

Hmm its only a 100 dollar difference, but for the slc its only 8 hours,
I guess I will go with SLC, and try and take thursday afternoon off
aswell.

I would love to go, the only issue is whether or not I can get our
busiest days off, we are rather short staffed right now, so hopefully
that will be solved by then.

Nevermind what I said here. I read it, and am still confused. Is this
Challenge ride a Muni ride over hard spots, or like a trials ride over
hard spots?

I think that's up to you. If it's what I seem to picture, I'm going to
try to set up lines that have to be rolled without any hops.
