I really don't know how you can pick a better location than Copper Canyon.
Do CC, as it's obvious...

I think the issue with Copper Canyon now is the rally Gerrardo Ibarra is doing in the fall. I went to the area in '07, but didn't really get to the rally proper, just stopped in to check out the scene on the last day. I don't know if a "reunification" is even an option.
The thing I like about the HU meets the most is the presentations by other travelers. Never fails to get me pumped up to plan my next trip. This seems to be lacking at the Chabochis rally, so it seems like an obvious marriage to me, but that is from the outside, and just what I want to get out of a meeting.
If an HU meet in Mexico needs to be seperate from the Ibarra rally, I think it either needs to be in a different location, or in the spring of the year. San Miguel sounds like a great place to me, but being that far in to Mexico, it could cut down attendance by Americans. It might pick up that many or more from el D.F. , so maybe it balances out. I'm not in a position to be the lead guy, but would help however I could from here in San Antonio, and show up early/stay late, whatever.
Would a second meet in Creel water down attendance too much? Hard to say. I prefer small gatherings anyway, so maybe that wouldn't be a bad thing.
