Trail ends on Highway 58, 7 miles West of Barstow

I have never done this trail. All information is from the internet and books. I will be running this trail on 12-30-07 and updating the thread after I get back.

Use this set of gpx waypoint labels rather than the set with the first post

Somebody spammed this old post. Don't support that by checking it out! also, before you use these coordinates for the starbright trail, be advised that this will run you into the new boundry fence for Fort Irwin. This is at the north end of the RED trail just east of waypoint 001.

Sorry, usually we get to the spammers before they actually post! This time they beat us!

I deleted the Starbright Trail information. These coordinates are for Black Canyon Trail and they should all be good to go. Mitch is correct though that you will run into Ft Irwin if you go any farter East than waypoint 001

Waypoints 12 & 13 are worth spending some time at!
:wink:




Ride'on,
