    My favorite SGU trip ever is still that first Anza trip where we blazed trail across the open desert with only this instruction form you,

    “See that mountain over there? We gotta get there by nightfall.”

    And we did. And it was awesome.

    haha! Yeah dude that was super fun! I love that part of Anza. Its huge and very difficult to pick your way across, but you can always see land marks so you don't really get lost. It makes you feel like a wagoneer in the old west

    BUMP!

    Anyone else want to roll with us!

    I have a few routes worked out. On Friday I want to explore the Truckhaven area. I've never seen it. I'll find a good camp on the north end of the park. Maybe do some night runs to the 4x4 playground. Sat we'll work our way through to the south and skirt the Split mtns and camp somewhere deep in Fish Creek at the secret spot. Sat will be mostly GOFAST desert blasting and we'll cover a lot of miles so make sure to bring lots of extra fuel.

    @sdde4n you still tentative?

    Yeah. I went today so it might be tough to get out there again before the 19th weekend.

    Conditions were perfect. Not too much traffic on the trails. Sand was perfect too. My first time so not much to compare it to. I’ll post pics tonight.

    I think the SGU trip will be a lot of fun because Alex knows the area so much better than I do.

    I went as far as I could. It's closed not far after Sheep Canyon (Middle Willows). The camping up that way looks pretty cool.

    Suspension-wise, just a leveling kit. On those dry river beds, I can only imagine how fast the SGU guys can go. It's probably a good thing I can't afford the dream setup just yet: I have a lot to learn skill-wise as a driver.

    Yeah dude the camping up there is awesome. They close it so the big horn sheep can fornicate for the summer

    It should have opened up Oct 1. Did they have a sign or something?
