Maybe it was used for some sacred spiritual ritual thing!

 

Navigation marker for early air mail?

 

Close....they were used from above.

...each concrete structure was arranged in a grid pattern, 16 miles wide by 16 miles long and they were spaced 1 mile apart. Their placement was to be within 1 mile of each other with an accuracy of 1 millimeter.

 

Used by who for what....????

The suspense is killing me!

That’s pretty cool. I was way off in my guessing lol

 

That's super cool! I wonder what makes those corona targets/shape so special for otical targets. We use them at work for calibration as well, except they are about 20um in total size.

 

Played a little at Rock Front Ranch on Sunday....

 

Super cool. I did piru creek this weekend. No video but its a cool trail. Deepest spots were less than 3 feet. Some soft areas only used 4wd for 1 big hillclimb And the last 1 mile before its a dirt bike trail.

 

I've done Piru Creek on my dirt bike from Goldhill Rd to Lockwood Valley a long time ago...I won't do it again. The first part is on the cliff wall above the creek bed. Lots of narrow spots, exposure and a long way down.

 

On a dirt bike seems nuts. At the end of the 4wd area seems so sketchy. And the boulders are huge back there. You're a wild man.

 

It was a long, tiring and hot day of riding...Started in the morning and got back to Smith's Forks in the late afternoon/evening.

 

Crap. I did West C. I could have joined you...

 

It's easier on a dirt bike if you are a good rider.

 

We did the Shaw Ridge side, out and back. Some good climbs and terrain.
I want to do the Big Rocks loop someday soon.

 

I think I did Big Rocks. I can look it up in my adventure log. There was one very steep climb that was really fun.

 

well better than no truck. time to take him out and remind him of the poor choice he made lol

 

I am available on Sunday for an early Big Rocks loop, if anyone is interested.

 

Backdoor bash is coming up. Anyone going? There's a raffle and poker run during the day. I think we are going to run the garden of Eden as well.

 

Although quite far out in the future...this looks fun.
