It's that time of year again, it's time for the Gettin'off 4x4 club to close the adopt-a-trail in the norcal mountains before the winter snows. The trail is called Sourgrass or AKA pine needle flat and it's a fairly easy trail. There are a couple good obstacles though.

The closing basically means picking up trash and cutting back any foliage that has encroached on the trail over the summer. In past events we met up with the rangers and they came along to help out. Here's a little description from roger brown: http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/CA-4/index.shtml .

Usually after the cleanup we hit another, more difficult trail -- Slickrock trail or Deer Valley trail. Both of these require sliders or no fear of slight body damage. No locker is necessary but it does make things easier. You don't have to run this trail, you can park your truck and ride along with somebody in the club.

The trail is located a little bit past Arnold up on hwy 4. Usually takes about 3 hours from dublin/pleasanton. This will be a day trip and we'll be meeting at Tracy - Arco Station @ Grant Line Rd Hwy 205 7:30 a.m.
or
Angels Camp - Burger King approx 9:15 a.m.

Anybody and everybody is welcome to come along. It's a great beginner's trail.

 

ah damn, I can't make it this year. I think last year was at a bad time for me too. Well enjoy!!

 

bump.
