IT'S ON!
Titus Canyon - a 27-mile one-way track that travels from east to west through the Grapevine Mountains, the ghost town of Leadfield, the Klare Springs Indian petroglyph site and the spectacular Titus Canyon then ends in Death Valley.

The trail begins in Beatty and ends in the ghost town of Ryolite just outside Beatty.
Meet across from the Stagecoach Casino.
Meet 0830 and Roll 0900.

This run can be done in a FULL day from Vegas(dark to dark). Beatty has hotels, casinos and an rv park if you wish to stay there.

Hi. Just thought I would mention....

We had friends in and took them through Titus Canyon on Tuesday. It has never been more beautiful. You could have driven a Corvette the entire way. Newly graded, smooth and nice. Now I'm not saying it's going to be like that in April, but on Tuesday it was fantastic.

The date would be 4/18. It would be great if you & Coral made it down here. We could start planning the festivities and tortures for July. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :lol:
