This month, Gary is leading us out to Spirit Mountain. Meeting in Searchlight at the Nugget Casino @ 8:30am. Roll out @ 9am. This trail will rate a 2 at the most.

This month (November) we will be meeting in Searchlight. From I-15/95, it is approx. 50mi. to Searchlight. As to exactly where the run is, I have never done this run. Gary is leading it. He would be able to give a better idea.

Oh sure, pin it on me :P

I'm not sure of the total mileage, but we did have about 15 rigs when we did it last year. The trail is around 15 miles or so from Searchlight, and a rough guess would be about 30 miles round trip from the trail head as it comes back to where we go in. It was pretty smooth sailing and we moved at a decent pace, IIRC we met at 9AM at Railroad Pass and for myself I was back in town before dark, so maybe 8 hours total from home & back? There's not too many stops, more of a scenic drive, so it can go by fast.

I'm likely going to pre-run it the week after next weekend's run, so I'll have a better (fresher) idea of a time line.
