Pics from Panamint Valley

[Jes]

Had a great weekend of wheeling and exploring the area. Friday Andy and I ran Isham Canyon and then went over to Surprise Canyon and hiked up to the falls. On Saturday we joined his local club for a run on Defence Mine trail.
A couple pics from Isham...

Looks like a nice time of the year to hit PV. One of these days I'd like to get out there & spend more than just a couple of days looking around.

So how'd ya like Isham Jes? It's a tough little trail.

My junk is black. No, haven't had any problem getting hung up since I went to the bigger tires. I used to have skids there till I ripped them off.

So how'd ya like Isham Jes? It's a tough little trail.

Isham was fun. Really deceptive, you look at the obstacles and think "that'll be easy" untill you drive in there and realize there are some tight turns. Lots of off camber stuff and the waterfall before the notch at the end is harder than it looks. Also that loose climb up to the ridge is a bitch.

Get ready for DT Gulch, it's gonna be a good one!
