Last Chance Canyon again? Why yes! This is a good time for our new SoCal members to come out and play on the rocks. I will be leading through some new trails off of LCC and doing some sight seeing as well.

Description: Last Chance Canyon (LCC) is a fun trail with intermediate boulder crawling. We recommend trucks to have at least 33" tires and steps removed. Lockers and rock rails are helpful but not required. Most of the run will take place in the bottom of a canyon with one steep hill climb. This is a good trail for beginners to learn technical driving.

When
: April 18th, 2015

Where: Garlock, CA

Time: 10am we will be hitting the trails. We will be meeting around 9:30 to air down and a quick safety meeting. Expect a full day of trails so bring a lunch to eat while we wheel.

Meeting Spot: Trailhead on the south end of the canyon just off of Randsburg Road, 6 miles from Hwy 14. :link:

Trails: Last Chance Canyon

We will be heading north up Last Chance Canyon. We have options to check out Burro Schmitt Mine and Dutch Cleanser Mine. If time looks good, we can take the difficult way back down. We typically have dinner in Boron at Domingo's.

Communications: CB channel 37

Weather: Temperatures have quite a range here. I recommend bringing a warm clothing in case it becomes a long night. Bring sunscreen and lots of water.

Caravans:

  • Santa Clarita - We will meet at McDonald's just off the 14 at Golden Valley Road at 7:30 and maybe a quick bite to eat. :link:

I contacted JRWid. He may be in for this one. He just got back from Moab himself. I am also trying to get my neighbor with his first gen Bronco to come out and play.

I have two extra CBs I can bring along if someone needs one. Also, please remove your steps. The last time we ran this, there were place where you will drag them, even with a t-bar crank.

I thought you said you would be in at the M&G . . . but my mind has been mostly on work. I really need to run a trail!

You never had a date then. Trying to get my buddy that has wanted to go wheeling with me for his first time to go. He will have to miss cars and coffee with his Aston. Trying to get Ant to go as well.

Excuses, excuses. Just do it and wheel that pig like it's a rental!

The pig is old and tired, kinda like you [emoji15]. Plus I have to take the 26's off and get the 37's back on. You know the deal with that [emoji41]

Yeah, I hear you and can relate about being old and tired BUT I still feel like a young kid whenever I wheel AND I just just got back from Moab and 3 straight days of wheeling. Right now, I'm still riding my Moab wheeling high, so don't rain on my parade by reminding me about how old I am. As the saying goes, age is just a state of mind. You need to get your ass wheeling to remember and remind yourself why you got your pig in the first place. [emoji12]

Need not worry my friend, you will see pics of the pig wheeling soon. Might be some pics of the mall like Twin
