It could end at two different places really. If near the end we stay in the wash it will end just a little south of Echo Bay on SR 167 which is also known as Northshore Drive. Then if you take the trail off to the south...I belive it's the approved entrance/exit for Bitter Spings, then you come out on Northshore Drive about 22 miles from the northern Lake Mead that goes to N. Las Vegas.

The paved road runs along side of the lake...the trail runs south along Valley of Fire. Once we hit pavement, we'll make a right and head home. I hope that helps you out Greg. :D

Where the dirt meets the pavement. :mrgreen:
Actually, it ends at North Shore Rd. in the LMRA.

Gary,, are talking about the "short cut" ??? Grands can do it !! At night,,, !!!??? I don't know... Phil



No, this is in reference to a dry dirt hill in White Pine County I did in my Scout in 2 wheel drive in 4" of snow.


And old V6 Grands can wheel. New V6 Grands are made for cruising malls. Jeep changed their 4X4 options so you can't get the 2 speed transfer case unless you go with a V8 or V6 diesel. So you get a wussy full time single speed transfer case that can't climb with the gas V6. Wheels great on pavement though. Oh well, that's why it's her car.
