this route is approximately 3 hours.

Stop 1 is deal's gap for Card 1, then Wear's valley for Card 2, then Tapoco tavern for Card 3.
I hope this link works.

Should I be giving the route away or give people pictures of where they need to go to find their cards
I planned out something that'll take 4 hours to drive but could also have people stop and check out some destinations.

ok- that's a really cool idea. Look for clues in a photo, let them put in the way points in the gps then drive. right on!

Unfortunately the Canadian crew and I will be heading to the dragon a couple weeks after the event this year. The earlier April dates didn't work for most of us. If someone on here still wants to run the poker run - DM me and I can send you my planned route
