Where is this? Wife and I are looking for a day trip. Was thinking 4 peaks but am open.

 

That's aways from me. What time are you meeting?

 

It's going to be a early morning run, like 6ish.

 

Got an address where you're meeting?

 

Do you have a permit yet to run it? It's free, even if you don't go might as well get one. They last for half a year.

Do I need one if you have one?

 

I'll see you there.

 

Each individual vehicle requires one.

I believe the coke ovens are officially closed and being enforced now......

 

I've heard that too

 

Do you know if you can still make it to the Gila from that trail of you bypass the coke ovens?

 

Guess I am out then.

 

Shitfuck.

Well, I guess I'll talk to my buddy who knows the trails around Gila River to see what alternatives there may be. Dammit, I was psyched to check those out again.

I'm sure idiots ruined it for the rest of us.

 

You are correct. They have always been on private land.... But it wasn't ever really anything talked about until the last few years.

 

There was a big stink about it last year. Someone new bought the land a few years ago and had put up new fences and signs, but people kept tearing them down and causing more damage. So the guy reached out to law enforcement. Said people were going to get shot for trespassing if they didn't help out.

 

i have a nice stash of these from previous years.... but i kinda stopped drinking, maybe i should start again.

 

Wondering about the likelihood of getting to the Gila from the other side... Anyone done that recently?

 

I did about a year ago. Came in off the Florence Kelvin highway then turned left at the big boulder pile. I think it's Donnelly wash rd but I could be wrong. But it took me right down to the river and you could cross it right near the bridge for the train.

 

You can get them online. And they are free. I just don't know how fast you'll get it.
