Default Tombstone Ride / Kartchner Caverns April 15-16

We are planning a trip to Tombstone April 15-16 with a stop on the 16th at Kartchner Caverns for a tour. I just tried to book for our group and found out they are 20 bucks a person and no refunds. I hear that you have to book the tour way ahead of time this time of year and want to be sure we get booked for the 16th. I need a head count within the next couple of days. Please post here if you want to be included. The plan is to ride to Tombstone leaving the 15th. Hang out in Tombstone and do the tourist thing with the Florida Crew. We are looking into renting cabins for the night and heading to the caverns the next morning and a ride back to the valley following. This is scheduled during bike week (not intentional). Anyway, we plan on riding every day April 14th - 21st while the Fla. Crew is here so there will be day rides too.
Post up if you want to go so we have an accurate count.
Looking forward to it!

I'm pretty sure Joe and I are in.

I think I heard that Kartchner was NOT on the short list, but may be on the next list of state parks to be closed.

I spent 8 years riding around SE Arizona. I have some really good memories of Tombstone, Bisbee, Gleason. Is the Rattlesnake Ranch still out by Gleason? That is one cool ride, but not for people that are scared of dust on their rides. Favorite ride, Sierra Vista, Tombstone, Gleason, Bisbee then back to Sierra Vista. Helldorado Days in Tombstone, Run to the Border? Those still active rides?

Jake, there are only four cabins and I believe we have them all booked.

Each sleeps up to 6 people, you guys are welcome to stay in ours if you like.
