I went out today with Scott & Lesa (avjeepfreek), Roger & LeAnne, and Chris & Melissa "Legs"
(chris142) to do some more exploring in the area of Ord Mountain. Dave (flatpoint) took me on my first trip to this area about 3 years ago. So much to see. Every trip I have seen new and different things. We met at the Valero in Lucerne and headed out to Camp Rock Road and then north to Harrod Road to air down. We headed north to the west side of Ord Mountain. We went up an old trail towards the top of the mountain. I stopped to explore and look for a cool rock house foundation and it's old chimney. Cool pieces of purple glass, square nails, and 100 year old cans that had both soldered sides and bottoms. Every one else went up to an old mine on the hill. We spent over an hour exploring this spot.
Next we took a trail to the "Desert Toilet". Must be a relic from a modern camper needing a remote camping site with a touch of home.
We next headed to Aztec Springs for a lunch break and more exploring. An old house slab there has 1917 carved in it.
I crawl in the Jeep but not into mines!!!!
This is a true "Gate Keeper"! How does he walk around with those???????
A truly great day spent with wonderful friends. 70 degree weather, awesome sunsets every time we went around a different hill. Thanks every one for the perfect day.
