Santa Cruz Mountains

That's like everyday for me lol

 

Gentlemen, count me in!!! See you tomorrow

 

Finalized plans (just the general route, we can change anything we see fit). @ninja89 @Eskimmer and I will be meeting up at Chevron in Mountain View (808 N Shoreline Blvd) at 9:15AM to fill up; anyone coming from the South Bay can join us, let me know. We'll drive up from there.

We meet at REI in San Carlos (1119 Industrial Rd #1B) at 9:30AM. Bathroom, snack, drink, etc trips in the area. Wheels roll by 10:15AM, through 84 to HWY1. Then we'll explore White House Canyon Road and see if it takes us all the way through. If not, we turn back and head down 1 to Santa Cruz (@kingk0ng is meeting a seller there), grab some food, then we all head home from there.

Nice photo opp at San Gregorio Beach when we hit 1. Pigeon Point is a very nice spot to just hang out for a bit. If anybody sees anything interesting on the maps, we'll make it a pitstop.

@baodown you're the one left to confirm.

NOTES: Some of us have our significant others joining us. Please keep that in mind, before throwing around any expletives. White House Canyon is public, but it does lead to a ranch and some other houses. Please be respectful: no loud music, don't tear up the land, no rev'ing, etc.

Looking forward to a fun day!

 

Guys, sorry for the last minute notice but I have to back out. My boss just notified me that I need to be on a plane to Asia tomorrow to support a customer visit. Dammit..............freakin' customers, I was really looking forward to meeting up with you all! Anyway have a great run and let me know about any future adventures. Shoot some pics later too

Cheers,
LG Taco

 

Man, sorry to hear you can't make it. We'll get the Buzzard Lagoon trip posted up soon. Hopefully you can make that.

 

I'll make a new last minute thread to get any one who might not have seen this.

 

appreciate that @TK7692 and will keep an eye out for the Buzzard Lagoon reschedule date.

 

Hey guys just saw this thread. I live close to SC mountains and would love to join if you do Buzzard Lagoon or anything else in the area!

@Bill Bixby

 

Ummmnn.., psst, notice the year this was posted. Happens to the best of us.

If you go, do it before November 1st. Roads closed during winter, except for the locals, who don't like "Mud Boggers" in there neck of the woods, and will chase you down, and/or call local sheriff's dept.

 

Hey All... I found this post... I live in Boulder Creek and would love to connect and explore the fire roads and such with some folks. The mountains around here can be sketchy... so a group would be good. The area is so beautiful I hate to concede it to tweakers. IDK - I'd be up for an adventure...

 

@TTT might be hangin' around the tweeker shacks up there. He should be able to safely guide and escort you around the place.

 

There is no good wheeling in our mountains. Please be respectful and stay away.

 

While I agree there's no good wheeling and am definitely one for being respectful I'm not sure why people have to stay away unless you mean the private roads?

 

SC mountains are filled with folks who don't want to be bothered. It's a shame, especially since much of it is public land. Not sure what @Micatom33 means - but respect is always in order. I'm sure there are some good fire roads with amazing vistas. Whatever... guess I gotta leave it to the pot growers and tweakers. Sad for a place built on freedom and nature.

 

I'm down to gowith you and explore some fire roads i live rite off 17 in campbell and am always respectful.

 

interested! DM me if you guys plan something.

 

I've hiked throughout different parts of Santa Cruz but wasn't aware of any scenic/fire roads.

If you guys go, send me a message! I'm about 35 minutes away from Santa Cruz.
