Overland Expedition journey from Mexico to Pismo
Starting near the Mexican/Arizona border south of Ajo, we link various overland routes and back country trails to the Pacific Ocean. The route was approx 1,000 miles one-way and consisted of 95-98% dirt.
Vehicles were two 80 series, one petrol, one diesel (A Sportsmobile joined us as well). We both pulled trailers. One older South African trailer with an RTT and a So-Cal Teardrop Krawler 459. We also were equipped with two dogs and two truly adventurous females.
This southwest journey combined many overland routes/trails linked together such as:
East to West
* El Camino Del Diablo
* Picacho Rd./Indian Pass
* Bradshaw Overland Route
* Joshua Tree
* Old Dale Rd.
* Mojave Road
* Calico/Yermo Area
* High Desert Barstow
* Black Mtn Wilderness
* Carrizo Plains
* Pozo Rd.
* Hi-Mountain Rd.
* Oceano Dunes
* Pismo
Ended on the sand at the Pacific Ocean.
Route:
The trip was made back in December 2011 and ended just after New Years. It took us 10 days. We just now finished the final installment of our 3 Part Series of trip reports.
Enjoy!

We also want to post the DVD Teaser trailer we hope to produce for late Summer 2012.
