I had forgotten the wash was so wet, only remember crossing the 100ft wide river on Harvard Rd. That was a good time.

This year went as well as I anticipated, but not nearly as successful as I had hoped for. I guess there's always next year. 🟢My plan is to finish the SAS Sequoia and get some miles in. Done three trips and close to 200 dirt miles already 🟡I want to get the kids out and see the sights that I've...

I'm not a fan of mud either, still have a bit of fab to do underneath and don't need the endless pixie dust falling out. Roll Call- 1- Motiracer38 Sequoia and family 2- Turboyota with a Yota con turbo and adult son 3- Sdecurti (4runner) equal odds on bringing the slow one or the rockcrawler 4-...

It was real deep in those years. The railroad filled it in when they were working on the bridge just before it and it was barely 8in deep once. I ran into a guy that brought a kayak but couldn't use it as it grounded out and was real bummed. I'm hoping for somewhere in between

Haha, don't worry I'll bring a tow strap for you. I've never seen it fluctuate much with the rain but we can duck out and around if it's bad. Going to have to back track to spooky canyon though

I'm sure there will be some standing water but luckily there isn't much slimy mud in the desert. It does look like the rain breaks on Friday and should be sunny by Saturday. I probably should make a splash guard for my air filter though.

Yeah it was. Son wanted to go R/C and I wanted to smash more rocks so it worked out. Had fun breaking everything we brought, rashed the Sequoia a bit, and won a new car in the raffle so it was a good time!

It's good to see some interest, stoked for all that can join. Looks like I'll need to find a bigger campsite for Saturday night but that won't be a problem. Any special requests for sights to see? So far the list looks like below: Saturday- -Buried Houses -Sand Cliffs -Spooky Canyon -RR...

I've been running Mojave Road every year for 20 years now and I realized that streak was at risk, so why not cram in one more thing to do in December? Details are below if anyone wants to come along. Bringing the family along for the first time in a new rig so will be taking it easy and...

That would be freaking sweet, you have to drop into the next valley to get on another tower most days.

You can run through all of Afton canyon then down the sandwash until you hit a fence. Turn right and it'll take you to the railroad tracks near Crucero which you would follow to the powerline, through the dunes and back to Kelbaker rd. Gas is in Harvard, Baker, and Palm Gardens to the north and...

These things look great with links, tons and 40s and work even better. Looking forward to see what you do with it and can't wait to see it on the trails. I want to get back to Moab too, that may be on my list for next spring.

I used to have a Samsung tablet mounted to my dash running Orux maps with my phone hotspot but that's all outdated now so I had my wife hold my phone when leading last time out. Since that didn't work so stellar I've been looking into an Android head unit and a new GPS. I've been meaning to look...

Soda dry lake is not dry and closed right now according to the NPS site. You can get our Rasor Rd and back in Kelbaker or take the powerline road around south through the dunes. The map linked below shows a way in from I-40 as well through the dunes...

I'm down for sure, getting stuck in new locations is my goal for this next year. I'll bring as much family that's free for the day and probably just drive up from my house or leave a trailer with a desert friend.
