I know you are getting tired of hearing this, because you have been going on some great trips, but Wish We Were There!!!
I'm having fun trimming out the garage, painting and doing other home improvement projects, yeah for me.
It's looking like we are heading that way right after Christmas.
Looking forward to the pics.

I'll try to post pictures tomorrow.
Hunter Mt was cake.
Lippencott bothered
, something about a shear drop right out side her door made her skeered. She was also a bit worried because we were solo.
Titus canyon today was fantastic. We could have driven the Mercury over the road, but the sceanery was...... incredible.
I may save some of the pictures for a piece in Toyota Trails. I might need some help on that, Keith?????????
I'll be killing some time tomorrow while is busy, I'll try to post pics then.

Oh yeah Carnage report, the PS window regulator failed at the race track.
wore a beany cap back to the hotel, Hunter MT is almost 8K IIRC.
It was a bit cool.
I got the window up at the hotel in the parking lot that night.

We might've crossed paths, the family and I hit stovepipe via lone pine just at sunset on the 17th, stayed in furnace creek, and toured the area between there and badwater on the 18th. Beautiful, even when viewed from the asphalt.

I didn't see any 55's. I think we were in different areas. We were in Panimint on the 17th. Saline Valley/Racetrack area on the 18th. We gassed up at Stove pipe on the 19th, did a quick loop of Titus Canyon then blasted into LV.
There are a lot of things to see from the pavement, there are even a few roads that are 2WD. West Side road is your basic desert gravel road, there are some great views from it.
The 55 isn't roadworthy yet, we were in the Magnum. There was definitely a day's worth of seeing from the pavement in our area. We'll go back and camp another year, this was our first trip through.
On other trips the Magnum has seen more dirt roads than most people's 4WDs.
Present company excluded.

Damn I cant wait to go back in April...
Most people do not appreciate the beauty of the desert, but I LOVE it down there. Its a HAPPY PLACE for me!
There is sooooo much cool stuff to see and do there.
One of the Blotch guyz just did a week long trip, the same time you guyz were there and hit all the weird lil spots you just dont take the time to see and had a blast!
Rusty,
I hadnt realized that it was a biz/ vacation trip...Thats cool you were able to do that like you did.
Is it tax deductable cuz it was a business expense?
Did you get thngs straightened out at work?
No where are the DAMN PICS you TWO!?

Okay here we go
Jake was not going to be left behind
A water crossing on Saline Vally Road
The bottom of Lippencott Mine Road AKA Ubehebe Road
The top of the road The sign has a dire warning complete with skull and crossbones
Thats the Race Track Plya, Jake made it!
Back at the cabin, time for a cold beer before diner.
Sunrise on the Panimint Range
The Devils Corn Field
The last pass before you head down into Titus canyon
In Titus Canyon
Lunch near Daylight Pass, Chloride Cliff road.
We wore Jake out, he would run for a mile at a time in front of the truck.
Happiness is Las Vegas in your rear view mirror.

Awesome. The canyons remind me of Thunder Mountain at Disneyland.
Here's a few of mine, if you want to see the whole gallery or full size pics PM me - I keep passwords on the galleries with pics of the family.
First, the first part.
I flew to Vegas and back the week before, I'm pretty sure this is Death Valley from the plane:
Who knew there's a museum in Vegas? Way cool.
Back to the point. Flew home, then hit the road the next day, stopping briefly at Mono.
and somewhere along 395:

If you see a blonde hair dude hanging around Panamint Springs Resort with a bandana or driving a army truck... yell "HIPPIE!"
