PaulD Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 Count me in...! Utah Traverse is in May, so DV is do-able. Cheers! Thanks Don...! The previous route from Gold Point, with a few mods would be cool... --Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous route from Gold Point, with a few mods would be cool... --Paul I was looking at my old routes from that Gold Point trip. I wasn't planning to visit GP again, but a lot of that looks usable. Just not sure if I want to cover the same ground or try to find new routes.

PaulD Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 One of the challenges will be to connect GP with Eureka Dunes via a fun route. I see some abandoned mines in the general area, as well as some interesting geological features.,, Like this thing: 37.321345, -117.461188--Paul Budeck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulD Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 Depending on the level of snow... We could try a route that starts near the top of the pass near here: 37.425026, -117.629965 and go directly south to connect with Tule Summit Road, then down into Tule Canyon which would re-connect us with the trail to Crankshaft Junction, thence west to the road to Eureka Dunes. --Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHappel Posted January 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 Other than reviewing my old routes I haven't worked up anything. Tried watching some videos on locations but didn't get much out of them. I'll try to nail down a date this week and set something concrete so we can get it on the calendar.

DHappel Posted January 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I've tallied the comments re: dates and as expected, there is no clear consensus. Too much spread to make everybody happy. I have 2 for 3/29One for 4/12one for 4/5two for 'not 4/12'and a few 'I can do anything if you'd just pick a date already!' If you have any last comments let me know as I'm going to nail this down ASAP. Mr.BlueSky and PaulD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilotgabe Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I’d love to go, but I’m going to Tacoma on 4/11 and I believe a trip to the Grand Canyon on the 4/16 or so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHappel Posted January 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I think I'm going to call it - week of March 29th. I'll plan to use the Saturdays on each end for travel, so let's say heading down Sat 3/27 and returning Sat 4/3. That'll give us a full week to bum around the desert.
