plan on exploring a vantage point for the next fireworks run.
take hiway 160 towards potosi. just before the mtn pass there is a pit toilet at the trailhead parking lot on the south side of the road leading to cottonwood pass. pg 84 in benchmark nv map book.
if you hit potosi turn-off, ya missed it.
meet at 10am.
road goes over pass to goodsprings.
graded dirt/gravel. 4hi just for loose gravel when climbing to pass. stock fine.
should be done before dark o'clock.

haha, this is where we got your old Jeep airborne and a resulting blown tire.

I love exploring that area.

Will try to make if I can.

job for PT's is extra board (or extra bored, if you're graveyard) so on call. no guarantees.

the pictures of the flying monkeys crash landing are on my previous computor.
that was also the run where the key for the lug nuts was MIA for my spare.
rex broke a craftsmen socket trying to power off the lug.
don't ever really piss him off.
so, he put HIS spare on in place of blown tire, we drove to pavement and called AAA ( no AA for this group.)
went to wien's and darrell got me a NEW tire, warrenties pay off, and i took the road crew to macmullins pub for guinness/harp black and tans and fish and chips.
it's all goood.
so, it's someone elses turn to test gravity.
you have a few stories TOO jj on that trail...
just ask allen.
hope you have the day off.
