Muni Rendezvous at Mt Ida, AR Oct. 27th and 28th

The weekend of October 27th and 28th plan on meeting at Mt Ida, AR for a Muni Rendezvous at the Womble Trail. The trail there offers many options with 200 ft bluff views of the river obtainable by a rider of any skill level. Located 40 miles west of Hot Springs is the ideal spot to stay (located at the main trailhead) is http://www.highway27fishingvillage.homestead.com/ They have reasonably priced cabins with a flat rate per night regardless of the number staying there for under $60 a night (they just ask if additional people stay in the cabin that they bring linen and towels due to laundry expense). 2 of the 6 cabins there have already been reserved. Plus there is a campground with electricity, water, and a lake swimming area there as well. No campground showers, but there will be one available at the cabins (just please bring towels). For non-riders there is crystal hunting (area is famous for them and the World Crystal Championship is being held there October 11-13), fishing, sight seeing in Hot Springs, and Mountain bikers welcome though they might be laughed at for needing a training wheel.

I'll be there.

I remember your pics from last year. What great views! My family will make the trip but will venture on in to Hot Springs for a day to do tourist stuff.

Great time of year for trails.

Who else?

Picture taken near the river bluff views. My back tire is on the trail and if I let go of my bike it would take me hours to retrieve. These bluffs are easy to reach since the climbs tend to zig-zag up the side of the hills. Why the orange vest? Didn't realize it was opening day for rifle deer hunting, and the owner of the Fishing Village was kind enough to offer and worried enough to insist I wear it.

Have you stayed in the cabins before?

I am still thinking about maybe coming and am wondering if I would be better off in a tent. However, staying in a cabin would sure cut down on the equipment needed.

I have stayed at the cabins before, and though old styling they are clean. I have one reserved for Fri/Sat, but it is only a 2 bed one and still waiting to see if another OKC rider is going to commit. Give the people at http://www.highway27fishingvillage.homestead.com/ a holler and see what they have, and reservations don't require any down just a couple days warning if you don't come. If anyone does camp I am sure they will allow placement by a cabin and I would be happy to share the bathroom (just bring your own towels please...) I also have a LARGE tent that I will be glad to set up if need be, and that will be no problem since I plan on being there early Friday. Thanks for considering riding with us!

Yes, the last time I talked to them they were still a go, but unsure if it would be 2 or 3 riders. They work at a large bike shop in Dallas and have plenty of contacts so there might even be more... Oh, I'll be the only rider since the other rider I was trying to get said something about blackpowder season or some other nonsense....
