    So Cal Broncos Calico 2025

    Cool! Was wondering if the PM that I got was the only interest. I'll have them with me in Mule Cyn. I expect to get there mid-morning Friday. I do the same thing, always have a couple of them in the truck, just in case.

    Looking at the weather it's going to be breezy and low 60's during the day, right around freezing at night.

    I have 3 boxes (file type boxes, not the usual cases) of MRE's and partial MRE's that I can bring to Calico if there is interest. We'd just like them to go to someone who will use them, Free!

    Heard that one of ours made the news, unfortunately.

    Anyone got the skinny on Tom Doran's situation?

    Even if you run it all in low range I can't imagine OnX's "Phillips Loop" taking more than a couple of hours. The technical spot in Phillips wants great articulation or at least one TAD. Without one it could take a while. With one it's maybe 15 minutes for a driver of moderate skill. How I...

    As of this past Friday the washed-out section between Bismarck and Wall St. Cyn on the "Wall St. Overlook" OnX route is not really passable by anything less than a full-on rock buggy. A narrow one at that. The technical spot in Wall St. Cyn below the Rock Cabin looks passable, but it's...

    Sonny, there are the two canyons, Doran and Odessa, that have the more extreme technical spots in them. There are other spots that are technical, but not to the level of those two canyons. I use Gaia for occasional reference, but don't have any routes plotted. FWIW Gaia's map of the area does...

    I think that UV-5R's come modified. Try 151.625

    Comms, I need to know what those who plan on going on my runs are using for radios. If you have a 2M, does it have the MARS-CAP modification?

    Event freq(s)?

    So 6G's tend to be GMRS, G1's tend to be 2M if not still cb, & we desert race support folks are 2M regardless of what we're driving. That's the great thing about having standards, we have so many to choose from! I have some loaner 2M H-T's that I'm planning on bringing to Calico for use on my...

    Event freq(s)?

    Not sure where to put this. Are there now established frequencies, either 2M or GMRS, used on trail runs, etc? Pondering this for the upcoming Calico run.

    I haven't gotten that far yet. 8am would be good, not sure if we can actually pull that off. I'd say no later than 9am. Pending getting clear of one obligation I am thinking to head out there on Thursday to look at some of the spots that have been problems in the past. Anyone interested is...

    I'm thinking to do a trail run on Saturday in the Calico Mtn's themselves, and then another run on Sunday, possibly out to Afton Cyn. Afton is sometimes called the "Grand Cyn of the Mojave River" for good reason. It's not as deep or as long, but it is spectacular. It is also one of the rare...

    Some of those printers can work from an image. I had some "Chris-Craft" logos made for La Blanca Ballena that way.
