    I was thinking of heading out to Gila Bend area to do some wheeling. There is a close group of about 4 trails:

    Agua Caliente Road- 45 miles, book- 3 hours trip...probably more like 1.5 if that.

    Robbins Butte Wildlife Area Trail- 15 miles, book- 1 hour

    Margie's Peak Trail- 15 miles, book-1.5 hours

    Butterfield Pass- 12 miles, book-1 hour


    The drive from Phoenix to Gila Bend is about an hour and 15 minutes.

    let me know if you are interested! I plan on bringing a cooler with drinks and snacks.

    Sycamore imo is like a last minute kind of trail. If I plan it I wanna go somewhere different. I'm down for a last munute sycamore run. Depending on thursday maybe we can go after picking up the passes for the June run

    Hey man nothing wrong with sycamore! I personally want to go explore more of what AZ has to offer!

    If you want, we can get the pass right when your off work Thursday, then head over to sycamore!

    This indeed is very true!

    I was actually thinking about you just now looking in my trails book, being in Yuma and all. I was thinking of making my way out there. They have a few cool looking trails, one is about 55 miles and takes you almost right up to the border, I would really like to check that one out!

    There is some small trails, but they honestly are not worth the 3 hour drive.
    Unless if you miss me that much :p

    The god damn things are all over the shallows at McCormick Ranch Golf Course! Must have been a hundred of them throughout the shores...they were definitely spawning


    Oli I'm down to do some trails up north! We should get together one night, have a few brews and go through that trail book of yours :cool:
