Gene, Coral, Taryol and I are going to run Burro Wash down to the lake on Sun the 28th. Gene says the trail rates about a 2 1/2 and a fullsize should be able to make it. We will meet at Railroad Pass at 08:30 roll at 09:00 bring lunch and a swimsuit if you like. See you Sun.

burro wash runs down into black canyon below the dam. it's a powerline road for all but a short section at the end. rates a 1.5 maybe a 2 at the most these days. stock friendly in either case. i just may have to join you guys on this one. 8)

Would this be north or south of Nelson?

the railroad pass casino is south of town. if you are driving to boulder city. it only take a couple hours to run the trail but i would guess they're planning on lunch at the water and coming back in the afternoon. 8)

I’m going to try and install my CB tonight, see everyone in the am.

We ran to the river south of the dam a different way a couple years ago, going through Nelson (North of Nelson) to visit Elizabeth J. Cove and Lonesome Wash Cove.

The pics and maps I did are here (and the garmin mapsource file):

That was with my Grand Cherokee, before I got my TJ,
