    You want to start on the west side of 3N17.
    3n14 (Coxey) -> 4N16 (Grapevine) -> 3N17 (White Mtn)

    i agree with this, White Mountain usually runs West to East. But I think we should take Holcomb Valley Road from Green Valley Lake, to Coxey Road, at the campground, and then go north to White Mountain.

    Give me a little bit, I'm at work, but I'll get a route made up, and put a link to it.

    I had to do it Strava, its a public route, so there shouldn't be any issues viewing it.

    Green Valley Lake, White Mountain, Fawnskin

    I put it as exiting out to Fawnskin, but we could just go back down Holcomb Valley, and exit the same place we started, also.

    Let me know what you guys think. Once we have the route more or less decided on, I'll export it onto Google Maps and share that link.

    Hey guys I know I’m joining the thread way into it but if there is a group that decides on Holcomb Valley Trail and there is a spot for me I’d be interested in joining. I’m on a stock O/R 4x4 so I can’t and don’t want to go on anything too crazy.
    I know the conversation has gone in different directions with different options and interests but I wanted to join the discussion either way.

    Only if there's no snow on the ground and dry, if there's snow and/or a lot of mud you'll need 4wd. But otherwise in the spring/summer is usually 2wd friendly, but we did get a lot of snow this year and I heard there was some more at 6500 ft this week.

    Also the conditions of 3N16 since all the crazy weather we had this year may be changed for the worse. I've run it a handful of times In the past 6 months but was in 4wd the whole time because of snow. Actually I'm thinking more of the dirt road from Green Valley Lake Blvd that connects to 3N16...I forget what it's called. But it tends to go up and down quite a bit before hitting 3N16, which is mostly flat.

    Hey would anyone have any problems if my friend brought his Raptor on this run? He wants to come up with us! I see on the first page the 10 truck cap hasn't been reached in the first group quite yet!

    @DarthPow All 10 spots have been filled but I don't see a problem unless someone else has any issues. Would 11 trucks be too much?

    Sorry @JABS2018 I must have forgot to add you to the list. I'll update that right now.

    I mean, I'm cool with it. I'd like for everyone who wants to come to be able to. If we have to split up the convoy into smaller groups to create space between us for traffic or whatever other reasons, we can do that.

    Your truck should be fine. Just look up the trail head on trails off-road and it’ll have directions to where we are going to meet. It’s not hard to get to.
