flatpoint 04-01-08, 04:37 PM Did you find some trails that leed up to the proposed area?
That's in my backyard. I go out there all the time and know most of the trails in the area.
If I'm available I'd be more than happy to come out.
Ride'on,
~CRASH!~

Granite Mountain is North of Hwy 18 and Rabbit Dry Lake, West of Hwy 247, South of Johnson Road, and East of Central. This is in both Apple Valley and Lucerne Valley.

You don't need Google Maps to tell you that!
Just kidding! The other members that posted gave you good info for finding the Granites.

Okay Everyone, Mitch and I pre-ran it yesterday. Check out Mitch's posting of it and the great photos! I hope more of you will sign up, the desert is really berautiful right now and we don't get this beauty every year. The rains have to come just at the right time.
It would be great to give the newspaper editor a great impression.
Thanks

Barb & I are going to try to make it. However, I just had a short in the electrical somewhere stop me in my tracks today. I'll get to work on it tonight, I'm a little too pi$$ed at the Jeep to take a wrench to it right now.
If it's not one thing, it's another.

Nick,
Remember this: JEEP = "Just Empty Every Pocket"
You'll figure out the problem! I got faith in ya man!
I hope you both can make it! It's shaping up to be a great trip. I just thought of something, after pre-running it yesterday, I'm thinking maybe your Liberty could make it!
Kodiak Spirit 04-08-08, 05:40 PM Roger, how about a stock grand cherokee? I am looking for something to do that day... with the kids... from the pics on Great88's report it looks mild to me,... do we have a meeting spot yet?

A stock Cherokee would be just perfect. The trail is easy. We're meeting at the Mobil Station at 18 & Central in East Apple Valley at 8:30 AM. If you will click on the link to the Calendar on my first posting, you'll find more information. It'll be great to see you!
Kodiak Spirit 04-08-08, 09:54 PM oh yeah, duh thanx Roger, I shoulda looked before I opened my mouth, .. er... well, you know what I mean... ;)

I don't care what the rest of them say about you, I think you are okay...:rolleyes:
USMC 0369 04-11-08, 07:08 AM Well, Barb and I are going to be at this run Roger...but it appears we will be in the CJ and park the Liberty at the trailhead (Barb didn't enjoy getting stranded on 2n02 last week, even if it was for only 20 minutes).
The YJ...

So, we'll be at the meeting place at the designated time...I just have to google directions. See ya tomorrow!!
Looks like you left your Jeep in East LA!
You are welcome to leave your Liberty at my house rather than at the meeting place. I'll PM You later this morning. I need to get out the door and head to work.
avjeepfreek 04-11-08, 09:12 AM I'm in, A day of wheelin sure beats a day of sittin at home!
great88 04-11-08, 10:13 AM Roger,
Sorry that I can't make it Saturday. I'm going out on Sunday with Dave (flatpoint) locally and he will fill me in on your trip. Have fun and don't forget; 3 Lefts make a Right?
Mitch
All signed up for tomorrow's run,
Please be advised that the Editor will not be able to accompany us. She has to go out of town. She assured me she wanted to go but was unable to. She asked if she can go on a future trip with us, and I advised her we were planning a trip through Johnson Valley.
Sorry to bring you this news. the run should be fun and informative, so I hope to see you all there.
USMC 0369 04-12-08, 07:08 AM Roger, Barb and I are departing for your place now. See you in a couple of hours.
That is if the CJ...ya know what... I won't say it.:no:
Kodiak Spirit 04-12-08, 08:42 AM sorry but I gotta cancel last minute. Roger, I hope you get this before you leave... dont wait for us, we can't go...
