      I agree. When I sold my CJ I moved it to my JK.

        Rich, what are the chances that you'll get access up the canyon?

          I think the short answer is probably slim.

            When I was in college back in 1984 we went to Panamint city. Here are a couple of old scanned pictures:


            Driving up the road (it wasn't bad then)








            We met this guy who was mining up there.



            He told us to check out this mine. He said that if you looked in the right place, you could see a section where Charles Manson had spray painted his name (not sure if this is true or not), but it sure made it creepy to explore.

              Wow been to quite a few mines in the last year, these by far have the most history left behind. Would love to see them up close.Thanks for sharing!!
