Justin, If the wife and I don't head out of town for the weekend we might make the trek. I'll consult with her schedule and give you something more definitive later this week but I'd definitely like to get a little dirt on my new tires with you guys! Jason |

Sure post this after the old man changes his off road tires and wheels, then cleans his truck. With all the heat I figured I was done until fall. Regards |

There are very few things that come with old age, but at least there is wisdom. |

i would suggest a rock hamer if you have one and a small bag to put your samples in. and a camera for all the great pictures you'll get on the trial. there's a good reason bitter springs trail is a blm back country byway. |

When I took a geology class many years ago at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado we used rock hammers and etc.., but I was more interested in studying cleavage yea rock cleavage... Where does one find one these days |

Did camp on Chloride Cliffs one night and the next night on Hunter Mtn. Both nights were nice...and that was in August where the valley floor was 117 degrees at 10 am!!! |
