October Alternate Trail Ride, Sunday 10/29/23 Trails off of Old Stage Road

[LCPilot]

At the October meeting we discussed having an additional trail ride since no one attended the regular trail ride.

This will be a close in Trail Ride that allows people to bail early if desired. Drive up FR368 to FR370, Drive FR 381 (in and back out) then continue on FR370 to FR 379, drive spur FR379A to Mt. Baldy, back track to FR379 go through Deer Park, Frosty Park and Elk Park. Go to FR376A to Bull Park (in and back out). Then you have an option, to go back directly to the Springs or detour through Victor, Cripple Creek, Divide, Woodland Park.

Meet at the South Nevada Safeway (1910 S. Nevada Ave.) on the east side of the parking lot (usual spot) facing Nevada Ave. 8am to 8:30am time frame. We'll cross-check radios and then move out. Radios used will be GMRS start with channel 5.

Please post up if you can attend.

Yep they are just a bunch of old guys with blue track boards.

Unless something changes, I intend to be there in the 80. I believe Vic will be riding shotgun, but he may drive himself.

 

[Fj moneypit]

Possibly in. Probably not in the 80 but possibly the 4Runner or maybe the 40? My work schedule has been all over the place lately but hope to make it out.

Took my mother out by 370 yesterday. Met a guy driving an FJ out on the trail. Forgot my stickers at the house. Told him about group and he was interested. So hopefully he finds the group.

 

[LCPilot]

Have fun out there, fellas! I'm in Logan, Utah so I will not be present.

I was up on Old Stage/Gold Camp the weekend before last to do some updates on trailsoffroad website...15th if I recall correctly. I drove a portion of Saran Wrap (370D) then hiked to and above the V notch (it is really worn deep and steep with a near-vertical 5-foot exit!). There's a bypass ("user created route") around it and the 30" rock further to the west/northwest.

Then I drove 379 up to 379A (Mount Baldy) and to the summit and back. This road is in good shape/easy.

Edit: @LCPilot be sure to invite the newest club member, Nicole!
