Official Mojave run May 3, 4 & 5

Sweet! I'll be rolling in the back of the pack at mid-travel suspension speeds!

 

I'll be running CB and 2M to help relay anything to those on CB and so-on.

 

I learned of this power while on my weekends in Mexicali. It is a strong power, yes, but god does it get uncomfortable.

 

So whats the exact route? I've always ran it from the Avi to Afton. Is this a west to east route?

 

yup, west to east but we're not going to Laughlin. I'll post the the itinerary in a week or so. Saturday we'll spend the day exploring the Mojave. sunday we'll hit a few sightseeing spots too on the way home.

 

Cool, I'll watch out for it. Where do you guys usually end it at?

 

It's only 2,400 sq miles theres a chance

 

This run we'll end up back in Barstow. Enter the desert in Barstow Friday evening, explore Mojave Saturday & make our way home Sunday via Mojave road to afton canyon.

 

Just added some new lights up front.. Just need to get my dust lights on and I'm set for the night runs!

 

Shoot me a call if you have service and well see where you guys are at.

 

What did you get?

 

Dually D2 wide, a pair of them.
I also changed my center spot HID to an amber lens.

 

Do you know where you guys are camping? We'll be camping at Beal Mtn. between Marl Springs and Cima Rd. in the whoop section.

 

Are we staying there both nights? Or do you know?

 

I'm pretty sure we're staying there or another camp spot both nights.

 

Johnnie you guys have the itinerary yet?

 

So is this just a blaze through the desert run or are we actually stopping at the sites like tourist?

 

I don't have a detailed itinerary yet in regards to sight-seeing spots but here's the basic plan.

Friday: Meet at Barstow Arco gastion as 4pm, leave at 4:30pm. Head to Powerline Rd and take that to Baker. Quick break in Baker and maybe top off gas tanks. From Baker we'll head back into the desert and drive around (not across) the Soda Lake and hop on Mojave Rd. Stop at the mail box and head to camp from there.

Saturday: Since we'll be getting to camp late Friday night we'll sleep in a little longer than normal and do some exploring but I'm but I'm not sure where yet. Late Saturday afternoon we'll head to Buffalo Bills at Stateline and eat dinner. From there we'll head back in the dark and do a night run back to camp.

Sunday: We'll pack up camp, leave around 9am and head back to Barstow on Mojave Rd. We'll stop at a few sight-seeing spots. I'm not a fan of Soda Lake so we may drive around it again or drive across it. If it doesn't rain between now and then we might drive across it and make a quick stop at the rock pile. If we drive across Soda Lake we'll head into Afton Canyon. If we drive around Soda Lake we'll take Powerline Rd. to Barstow. I'd like to be in Barstow by 3pm on Sunday and not get home so late like we always do.

 

We'll be stopping at sites like tourists Saturday and Sunday.

 

Sounds good I'm gonna see if I can leave Friday with you guys since I want to take the kids to the mail box as well. If not I'll wake up early on Sat and take them before we head off haha.

The Rock pile is great but all the salt from Soda lake sucks damaged my bypass and undercarriage .
Since it's a good size group I think we should skip Afton canyon, I still remember a couple of us go stuck and took a while to get out.
