New to Bako and hoping to figure out where to wheel

Postby Dirt Mover » September 12th, 2011, 6:34 pm

My name is Rob and I moved here from Clovis last spring and I'm hoping to find some new trails and people to wheel with. I drive an 85 4Runner. Here is a couple of pics if I did it right.

Welcome Rob!!! Come on out to a Meet and Greet, or just show up for an upcoming run. It looks like you are pretty well equipped.

We have a weekend trip to Calico Ghost Town the weekend of 28-30 OCT. Camping, wheeling, and ghosts....

Welcome!

Welcome, and nice Toy!

We have some nice easy/moderate trails here locally that turn to difficult in the winter - so we do lots of snow runs.

I think you will really enjoy our trips out to the desert in the spring and fall.

Calico = about 2.5 hours away
Ridgecrest/Spangler = About 2 hours away
Nightmare gulch / Last Chance Canyon = just over an hour away
Johnson Valley = about 3 hours away

Check out the "run Reports" board to see what these trails are like.

Thanks for the welcome, looking forward to exploring the area.
Going to places like The Schmidt Tunnel are what I'm looking for also. Nightmare Gulch has always been closed when I've been there, so that is on my list of trails to do.

As soon as I can get my shocks installed and transmission leak solved, I'm looking to take my girl up to jawbone to see those things and Im hoping to take those trails as well, when we go I'll post something up. Hopefully we will be going sometime before the end of this month so nightmare will be open. Requirements will be simple seeing as I'm 2" lift and 31's ;). The last time I went thru it I was 4" lift and stock 235/75's. So this time should be a little more fun :)
