2018 Nor Cal Wheeling, Camping and BS

Fuck you Brett!

 

The roads a couple of slides both sides. Rumor is they might get fixed later this year or next year. I wouldn’t leave my rig alone over night down there

 

I wouldn't leave it during the day on the brush creek side ether. Those people are nuts over there.

 

@2ndToy
Wife and I are headed to gold lake through Quincy around early in the morning. Know of anything to watch for on our way?
I haven't been that way in months.

 

We ran it in May from that side, must be a fire out there?

 

Nah it looked to be washed out and unpassable.

 

May be closed. There's a thread somewhere, where they mention was going to be closed to build solar power restrooms.

 

washed out a little bit, nothing major. Stacked some rocks and used a spotter, four of us made it ok.guess they closed it since then. Hard to believe the closed it for that one small section. An hour with a shovel moving some dirt and rock and would be good till next winter. There's even a steel drain pipe for drainage.

 

Maybe ten or more of us and a few beverages of choice for said labor and we're in???

 

me & wifey hittin up Icehouse spot 15-17 if possible tmrw around 8pm, then checking out Rubicon sunday for a min then back to camp and head out monday if anyone interested. Backup plan is hit Union Valley or Loon lake if we cant camp at icehouse. I usually use channel 17 on cb if no cell phone reception.

 

have you made mango salsa before?
wanna share recipe?
ive made it a few times with tofu tacos and its hella good!

 

Unless there's a locked gate? Don't remember if there was a gate or not. Don't recall seeing one, but wasn't really looking for it.

 

No gate. Just an easel with a sign. Sent one truck up to check it out and he didn’t feel it was safe to have as many trucks as we had in our group. We utilized plan B and turned out to be an awesome weekend anyway!

 

i think im going up there on sunday if i do ill keep an eye out for ya

 

The most narrow spot had obvious signs of continuous erosion from traffic. It was mayb 3-4”on each side of the tire before drop off on both sides. We also had a +3.5 LT truck with us.

 

No this one is a first time, i will let you when the wife gets it made if its good. She has the recipe with her shes shopping for ingredients now.

 

Let us know how it turns out.
I’ve only made it with onions cilantro and lemon juice. Not bad but I know it can be better

 

It was pretty much just that. This was a low cal healthy version
Mango salsa
1 red onion,2 mango's, 2 small jalapeno,cilantro to taste, fresh squeezed lime juice from 2 limes, salt and pepper.

pared with slaw:
2 cups of shredded cabbage
2 teaspoons of honey
1/2 squeezed lime


For healthy vrs. grilled fish.

Or unhealthy add beer battered fish.
I had beer battered with mine it was pretty good but I think it would be better with Grilled fish. and less cilantro next time.

 

Took kids to Children's Fairyland overnight camping. Kids loved it! I would highly recommend for anyone who has kids. They close the park in the evening so you have the whole theme park to yourself. They provide dinner and breakfast so all you need is your sleeping stuff.
