Once again it is time for a return to the Mojave Desert in search of new places, old favorites and old friends. Tenatively we are looking at meeting Saturday night, 11/18 on the trail to Chloride City, off HWY 374, near Beatty Nevada. The concept this time focuses on a camp on the trail event, starting at the Nevada border, and ending at the Nevada border. A horseshoe loop if you will. Gone is the prior trip practice of base camp. Additionally a midway meet up for Thanksgiving will be offered. Trails will be easy to moderate, due to ajenda, nature of Death Valley Trails and a switch to the Xterra as my new trail rig. No equipment requirements this trip except supplys and additional fuel, atleast 2 Jerry cans+. Come prepared for major snow, bring shovels. Generaly mild temperatures at camping locations.
