Here are some pictures I found while researching this trail. It looks like a tough trail in certain spots. Should be fun.

Next time!!
Great run - very scenic and several challenges from washouts, bolder strewn trail, etc to keep it fun! Thanks Bob for instigating this run ~
We met at the Carefree highway spot and did our air down at the Bloody basin turn off. Joe brought his daughter (copilot) and his son (in the red mini).
Got to the Desoto mine site and checked around. Bob waiting to be next up in his 37" shod 80 series - just waiting for Ahmed to finish going up a challenge in forward and reverse - that Mercedes diesel he skillfully transplanted is super torquey!
Norm peaking the top of a long and rutted climb. Norms daughter and Phils dog made best buddies quickly

The weather was perfect, the snorkel cam paid a visit, Joe coming down some steps, Fire + heavy rains = major washouts which led to some interesting landscape

Great trail with plenty of challenges and a well rounded group. I had a great time ran the trail, short trip to Crown King for cocktail hour, camped off Bloody Basin Rd. near the Pueblo La Plata ruins
, visited several old cabin site on the way home, witnessed road rage with a shot gun, and put 24.5 gal
in the 80.
Saw a lot of cool wheeling and terrain but no camera.
Thanks Bob for putting this together.
