Railroad Pass Casino
Meet 09:00
Roll 09:30

Powerline Wash Road From 95 to The Colorado River.
Trail: 1.75 Maintained road, Minor washouts (3.5 if you are afraid of heights) :P

Air down/Disconect will be aprox 15-18 miles from Railroad Pass after pulling off 95.
Been a long time since I have been on this one and have always done it from the River to 95, so backwards this time but not in reverse :twisted:
We will end up at Techatticup Mine around 3-4pm. Bring a lunch, we will find a place on the mountain depending on the time.

Great Views, Shelf roads, Inclines and Andy's water crossing.

We will be going down the steepest parts so just coast :wink:

but really, I don't think a carb will be a weakness on this run.
Club runs aren't meant to be hard enough to exlude any stock rig.

We just did this trail a couple weeks ago, its nice and easy, has a few waterfalls if you want to try them, if not you don't have to. The scenery and views are really pretty.
Hope to be out with everyone soon !

I need to attend a birthday party around 2:00 PM. Would I be able to attend and still make it back to Vegas in time?

Kevin, I would think not. I couldn't promise that we'd be back by then. Maybe next time

Hello Everyone,

Not sure if you guys remember but my wife and I had accompanied you on a run in the Searchlight area -- probably a year or two ago now. We had a great time but just being based in Calif. haven't been able to make it out since then. But the timing looks like it will work well for us this week so would love to accompany your group on this run. To refresh I have a stock Jeep Liberty. So if you think I'll have issues let me know. Otherwise please count us in. Look forward to seeing everyone again.


Thanks so much,


Greg

Would love to go but don't think I will be able to make it. Is it full size friendly? Wait that doesn't matter I take mine everywhere anyway :lol:

Can someone record the tracks and send me the GPS file I have a Garmin so GPX if possible.

Thanks
