    I listed the run as moderate but it will be mostly easy. Any stock Jeep should have no problem

        Chuck,

        This is a long trip covering most of JV. We'll be looking a a couple of mines, the Rodman Petraglyphs, run near some of the race courses, going by some of the major dry lakes, and such.

        The idea is to show those that go how emense, diverse, historical, & geological features so that they will appreceiate what is at stake in our use of JV. That's my goal. We won't be doing any of the famous extreme trails.

          I'd like to go too! I have some friends with land rovers & an H3, are they also welcome? Would these mall queens encounter any thing like "Cleghorn", or are we talking "Fire Road" style driving...lol!!!

            Screwball,

            Guests are always welcome. Not a problem. I would recommend that they at least have recovery points front & rear and a tow strap with no metal hooks.

            I don't believe the "mall queens" will have any problems on the route we'll be taking if they have at least minimum off road driving skills.

            Do they have cb radios? For this run we'll be doing a lot of narrating over the radio as we are traveling. Think of this run as a mobile classroom!

            Thanks for signing up!

              Thanks for putting this together. The only part of JV I have seen so far is Bullfrog. It will be nice to see the bigger picture of what JV has to offer. I’m hoping to get my CB set up before then. If I do I will have the handheld CB I am currently using available to someone in need.

                I'd really like to go, I'll see if the wife will let me go, I've been doing a lot of jeeping lately. Maybe I'll try to take Scott's passenger seat!

                    That's what I was hoping for.

                    I'm itching for a scenic trip. Hopefully I can make it.
