Looking for some runs north of Phoenix area - moderate only. Would be great to do a LC run around here. Lake Pleasant area, Turkey Creek, DeSoto, CK, etc....

:cheers:
 
Bump.

I'm only familiar with limited stuff North Phoenix, but may be up for something Sunday. For an easy run, Table Mesa east of I-17 and coming out in Cave Creek is not bad. Never done anything around Lake Pleasant.

P.S. - I don't believe DeSoto is "moderate", but never been there...
 
I'm doing this run up near Jerome on Sat:

On the azbackcountry.com website

There's lots of fun trails north of lake pleasant, then there's the trip out to Tip Top from Table Mesa (with several options), of course, backway to CK, and various other routes to CK from lake pleasant

I'll probably set something up in a couple of weeks. Maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll be doing the new OME suspension next weekend..
 
New River run

My son and I did a run from 7 springs to Table Mesa road last weekend. We had a great time. The road is rough but easy. There was water in all of the river crossings. 12" to 18" deep!

Well, look like my OME lift will here this week, so I'll be installing that and re-building the front knuckles along with new brakes this W/E. So, weekend after that might be good for a shakedown cruise. I'll see if I can come up with something fun.
 
put me on the list for a run....I know table mesa like the back of my hand and the fjc is getting rear diff numder 3 right now...so surely it'll need to be tested...
 
table mesa

So how do you compare table mesa others like lower ajax or the run up by Jerome, or even broken arrow and greasy spoon ? Just trying to get an idea because I have run all those I mentioned?
Thanks

Don,
Depends on what part of Table Mesa you go to.

Upper and Lower Terminator, Anaconda, Judgement Day, Predator, Annihilator, Collateral Damage, Twisted, 6th Day, Matrix, etc. are all MUCH more difficult than the trails you've been on.

****EDIT**** I'm unfamiliar with the easier runs in the area, but I'd guess you could run Raw Deal without too much trouble. (I'm also sure you could run U&L Terminator with some careful spotting).
 
Do you have a link? I am interested.
