Pictures are great and...

Everybody off hiking or fishing. Great nights...

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet (LEAVITT TRAIL WILL BE OPEN)

In the shop now still no word :t4:

My Impala just got out of the shop but still needs work.
My pickup is in the shop and might need a new A/C compressor.
Can't even get the Harley started....

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet (LEAVITT TRAIL WILL BE OPEN)

I don't think there will be any one camp Craig. On page 2 of this thread is a map showing the site I plan to grab (see the square) if it's open. Dunbar is planning on attending so he'll grab a...

Good news....Leavitt llake trail opens Friday the 13th. So the meet is on as usual. There was some info on Marines training up there with Labs but I'm figuring they'll be gone after the weekend. I'll...

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet (PLEASE READ UPDATE)

Fun on the trail. I do want to get a 2M FM rig one of these days. Almost took the test about 10 years ago.

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet (PLEASE READ UPDATE)

I'm gonna play it by ear.

There is a Boon Dock spot towards the top of the pass that would hold several vans but it's just off the highway by probably 200 yards.

If I recall Long Valley creek...

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet

Yes that spot is located not too far from 108 on the Silver Creek trail and the picture is from a year or two ago. Doubt there is any snow this year. I didn't make it up the hill this weekend. Sounds...

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet

I would suggest this spot and I might even see you up there. It's not far off 108. You'll see it as a spur off the trail but you can camp W/O having to make the huge climb. The main route to the top...

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet

Not sure how the road is this year. There are a couple of creeks to cross and one CAN have a nasty departure angle (I've drug my tail through it) but was graded a few years back. I'd say if your van...

Re: NorCal Sierra 4x4 Meet

I updated my first post and will continue to do so if more want to join in or have to back out. I also posted some spots to camp at for those who are wanting to break up the long drive.
