Titus Canyon

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 in Beatty.
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.

I'm going with the wife and friends 4/9 will update on trail condition. We plan to do racetrack too, if youre going to ride all that distance you should consider it if you havent done it.

You guys are really making me feel unwanted. LOL
I have at least one weekend a month that there is something planned and sure enough, each months club run is on that day. This one happens to be my birthday!
I love the Titus Canyon run too dangit.
