e-mail 'porchpuppy' Andy lives in Ridgecrest and knows the desert well. the runs i know of: Last chance canyon, Isham canyon, and the Defense mine trail, are just a few.
ps. andy 'porchpuppy' just posted in the 'swamp lake' thread.
Cool on the trails.
Also wondering about businesses in this area. I have been here many years, but not too familiar w/ local businesses that offer 4x4 services. I know of a couple to avoid though.
If your looking for some good runs up here in my area ( Ridgecrest ) let me know and I will set you in the right direction! Porch Puppy and I have been neighbors for a few years now and we have been pretty much all over out here in the high desert! My Favorites would have to be Stone Canyon/ Look Out City ( Panamints ), Pleasant Canyon ( Panamints ), Last Chance Canyon/ Nightmare Gulch! Death Valley Loop via Gohler Wash/ Butte Valley! Jail Canyon ( Panamints )! As for Buisness in this area JJ, this is a weekday town! The luck of you getting any major work done would be next to nothing during a weekend trip! Besides if you break something on the XJ give me a call ( you have my number ) I probably have what you need :laugh3: !
