    I was pretty excited to go on a offroading/camping trip to Joshua Valley a couple months ago but due to conflicting schedules, we had to cancel the trip. I was thinking it'd be cool to get a small group of people going on a weekend camping trip this spring. I was thinking this route:

    Anybody have any comments/suggestions/interest?

    In all sincerity though, i really wanna go on this trip. Im gonna try and gather more info on the route and get something planned so its easier for people to decide if they wanna go.

    Hope at least a couple people can make it. I think it'd be a great trip. Some camping, bbqing and beer at night, and some offroading and exploring during the day.

    If I told you I'd have to kill you. Or charge you $35 for the knowledge. Both these are legitimate options for you.
