    We are heading east from Oceanside to Ocotillo Wells (maybe), so if anyone isn't going way south to Golden Acorn, where/when would they find you guys... is there a planned route or target area? We usually play areound Devil's Slide (Squaw Peak) or Shell Reef... with a stop at Blowsand before heading home.

    I think I want to do some more deep sand tests with the A-TRAC... and Devil's Slide is the best site I know of... Any other ideas?

    I'll be heading there from Oceanside also, didn't really want to go all the way down south to the Acorn...but if you guys are starting from the south, I guess I'll have to :cool:

    If you are heading east from oceanside what route do you take? Maybe we will just change the way were gonna go so it better suits everyone. Doug(4WD) was suggesting the 78 down banner grade to Ocotillo Wells! And David K. maybe you could lead us to some fun places to play? Never been to either of the places you mentioned, but have heard a lot of people talk about them!
    Let me know the route you are gonna take so i can better plan our route.:D

    Added to the list.

    By the way which route do you take to get to Ocotillo Wells? Is it the 78 through Jullian and down the banner grade? if so i think we should make the meet spot Jullian pie company parking lot, then head down from there:D Might be easier for all. we would be back tracking if we went the south route!

    Not really, cause if were going to Ocotillo Wells we want to go down the 78 to Ocotillo Wells or else we will be back tracking. Not going to Ocotillo at the bottom of the 8east were going to Ocotillo Wells which is north from there. So it would be easier going through jullian down the banner grade to Ocotillo Wells:D
