Well, to complete the Holiday Wheeling Season, Karen and I are going to do a New Year's Day jaunt north of town. We plan to run Table Mesa Road from I-17 (exit 236) into Camp Creek Road which spits you out just north of Cave Creek and Bartlett Lake. This is not a difficult run (I ran it my...
Looks like a great time - the only thing missing is a Yellow FJC:frown: !
Needless to say the frickin' painter/stucco folks failed to show up:mad: , they did, however, call me at about 11:30 to let me know they were not here:censor:

However, if you are on the edge:confused: , encouragement and excellent spotting are provided;) !
And, of course, Spike will test the line for you:bounce: :bounce2:
I/We unfortunately will not make Saturday run - still have stucco and piant work on the house requiring rear yard access and k-9 control. Howsomever (sp?) I will be planning a local New Years Eve or NY Day run. More to follow...:cheers:
Of course we do embrace diversity, so we had our obligatory GMC and Jeep companions. Below is CP Bob chasing spike over an obstacle on Ajax, a poser shot, and Lindy inspecting for damage after he dragged his @ss over the rox.
The weather was awesome - the low clouds and light made the scenery spectacular. Unfortuanately most of my pics were with my 35mm SLR, only shot a few w/ the digital quickie. I'll review and post some l8r. Great day guys!
Matthew, hope you got everything cleared up!
I was just logging on to check on that very thing. I suppose that since I recommended the trail, and Claudia seconded me, I'm the responsible party. I would say the same Basha's parking lot in Gold Canyon (Superstition Mtn. Drive about 3 miles down 60 past the end of the freeway) about 09:00...
Telegraph Canyon Trail is 12 miles, according to Massey's book. You're right Ajax is probably 8- 10 miles down the trail. I offered it as a Thursday option for a scenic run with some diffQ side detours available. Also, it allows several routes out, including thru Coke Ovens, where I've never...
I'm considering a Thursday run - maybe the telegraph canyon starting in Superior and coming out in FJ to either do Martinez or Coke Ovens - just a thought...
And wow - just broke 400 posts in 6 months - man, I gotta get a life...
What an awesome day! The scenery was spectacular, the weather perfect. The sun, well, uncooperative. Looking at Well's, I think we ran the trail loop backwards - hell, I would not want to go up those descents anyway! It also appears there was a warning against Carnage Step - I can imagine the 6...
Spike - no map, but directions are easy. Head East on 60 past the end of the freeway towards Gold Canyon. You'll go approximately 3 miles (my best guess) thru 3 stoplights (I think) to a left turn by a shopping center. The closest landmark to the 60 is the Jack-in-the Box. Turn left on...
Sean/Kevin - I think I may have cornfused expeditions - I think I'm gonna follow Kevin and the Germans. Basha's 08:30ish (I have to say that to make 09:00...
