Slaugo 35 Posted June 8, 2017 South Utah, Mohave, Anza Borrego, Glamis and OcWells. And if you want some boring firetoads with some great food, then Baja? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I'm too much of a whimp to try Baja by myself. But Utah or Mohave sound like fun. I may be biting off more than I can chew ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tntmo 882 Posted June 13, 2017 This time of year staging from SoCal, you're going to want to find elevation otherwise you'll be dealing with heat. All good suggestions so far, my input would be braving through the heat and getting to Sedona/Prescott/Flagstaff? If you punch out early enough in the morning you may miss the triple digits for most of the ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it's about a 10 hour ride... and I only have two days(one night) now. So, that will be another time. i have settled on riding up to Sequoia. I've never actually been there and it's just over a six hour ride. I'll be leaving early tomorrow and should have lots of time to ride up, explore a little, and set up camp. Just North of the NP is the Forrest with lots of dirt and dispersed camping. It also nice and high up so it won't be too hot... downside is I half to ride through the Central Valley for a bit to get there ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
