Ebruddah · 05-13-2009, 06:27 PM

Due to the closure of Miller Jeep Trail till the end of August the Staff has decided to move the run to Rattlesnake Canyon / HeartBreak Ridge...

Here's a teaser pic and more information to come. I'd like to thank all of you for your patience.

FYI... This will become 2 staggerred or seperate groups if we exceed 10 since it's a tight fit in Pontaiac Sluice according to ShowStop. But I'll wait to see what his offical word is.

So FRODO don't go posting this shit on YotaTech or anywhere else...

You could probably fit 12 vehicles at the top of the loop, maybe a few more, but that would be it. The loop at the end is narrow and should only be run one direction since you can't pass. We typically run the loop counter-clockwise. Run everybody up one way to the top, then go down after everybody gets to the top. Then you run the trail back out the way you came in to 2N02.

Couple more pics:

Scuba · 05-14-2009, 01:26 AM

NICE!! I might or might not have my lift done by then..Doesnt make much of a difference cause I wont have my 33's by then anyway..

I'm hoping to camp - at least the night prior (Friday) to the run. Should have my RTT and rack on by then... Any suggestions on a campsite location?

Thanks for posting up the add'l pics ShowStop.

It can be either one... You can jam after you're done running on Saturday. But a lot of us like to just camp after wheeling all day.

Took a closer look at the Well's book, and Heartbreak Ridge could turn into an all day run (retracing/backtracking would be required to run Rattlesnake - Maybe Rattlesnake on Sunday for those that camp Saturday night)

Also the Wells' book mentions two campgrounds in the area, Round Valley and Juniper Springs. Reservations are required at Round Valley. No mention of reservations at Juniper Springs. Though they are both 'Group Campgrounds' so my guess reservations are also required. I'll check on availability today. Have no idea if primitive camping is allowed...

MikeDiswhoibe · 05-14-2009, 07:55 AM

Count me in, as well as one buddy in his 95 SAS'ed pickup.

Thanks Rick...

With this in mind we are going to have to place the 12 rig limit. Also we may have to find additional camping for the folks coming in on Friday night.

Tyler any suggestions for a large group camp nearby aside from the aforementioned?

willia12 · 05-14-2009, 08:42 AM

If we can find the spots I plan to camp both Friday and Satuday night.

84socal · 05-14-2009, 09:40 AM
