Would anyone be down to do some wheeling on Saturday, May 3? I am itching to get back out there after running Cleghorn last weekend... also the fiance is doing a girls shower that day, so I'm free
OK, so here's the plan:
Meet at 8:30AM at the Chevron in Mission Hills (where the 405 and 118 meet). 10701 Sepulveda Blvd. Mission Hills, CA 91345 (corner of Sepulveda and Chatsworth). We can all drive up together (about 50min - 1hr to Gorman). Hit Pronghorn in the AM and then maybe some more trails in the OHV after that (I've got a trail guide that covers many of the trails in the OHV). I know not everyone will be staying all day, but if we get bored in the OHV there are some other nice trails close by in Frazier Park/Pine Mountain.
Here's the blurb on Pronghorn (California Backroads & 4-Wheel Drive Trails by Charles A. Wells):
Difficulty: Moderate. Narrow, tippy and steep in places. No long vehicles (NOTE: "long" in this book generally refers to a quad-cab F250 ).
Time & Distance:
12.7 mi. Allow 1-2 hours plus time for side trips.
I have never run this trail before but it seems pretty moderate from what I've read about it... I'm not in for body damage so if we get to a point where someone isn't comfortable, we can just turn around and head back... there is PLENTY to do in Hungry Valley.
I would love to meet and wheel with you guys. Let me know if you would be interested! These trails would be easy-moderate, unlikely body damage. If it sounds like it would be too long for you (probably AM until evening), just come and run 1 trail!
