^ on like donkey kong.
I've got a truck full of fire wood, a can of gas, a huge cooler full of refreshments, all my stuff is ready to go.
Today is supposed to be the last day of the rain. I suspect it will be real nice out there.
Its gonna be a full moon which makes seeing at night easy and night rides more plausable.
Looks like its just me and 3 others plus you mike.
Hopefully you decide to camp out. I got some really good maps and I think I can take you on some trails you have never been on that are quite difficult right near the vicinity originally planned.
Can you bring a CB this time?

I ain't making it Brad. Have fun out there and be sure to take some pics.
I've decided on a hybrid bumper and will be starting it soon. By the time you get the bender I should be ready for the top hoop.

Hey steve, I have an arial photo, can you take a look and tell me where the col de sac is? I have labeled where I think it might be, but not sure. I think there are more trails than people think.
The green is where I have been, the yellow is where I have also been, as you can see there is another trail coming from the west that goes up to valley of the moon, but that is where I could not get through with my runner stock. VERY difficult, but I have seen some jeeps get through. I am interested in the spot that is south east of elliot mine, I know there is a jeep trail there from other topos, but I don't think I have made it there yet.
I'm thinking of hiking to see the smuggler cave and riders cabin. The green trail is the one that comes from the inkopah exit.

Edit: if the mine on the map is the top of the mountain where the three or four mine shaft holes are then I'd draw my own fork in the road just prior to the mines which would veer slightly left or east? and drive to the end of that trail. Totaly confused yet?????????

Mike, I think getting to all the trails on that arial photo plus shooting will keep us busy for more than a full day, so I think we should do that and then I'll plan another trip to the north side to do table mountain in a month or so.
See you SAT!

Err? It's hard to tell based on the aerial pic but if I had to guess I would just say that it's at the end of the green trail but I don't remember any mine. We merely caled it the cul de sac because it was the end of the road. It has rocky hills all around it for a little shelter from the wind and nobody can camp near you. When I get home I'll look through my albums to see if I have any pics that would help. Sorry that I've opened my trap without the specifics to back it up.
