    What’s up,
    Gonna do some wheeling tomorrow morning out by Pine Valley or Campo 8/3/19

    Don’t have anyone to go with, if your interested let me know, always fun to go with other ppl

    Possibly Bear Valley loop (Pine Valley)
    Or
    Sheephead Rd up to SheepHead Mnt. (Right off the 8 freeway on Buckman Springs)

    No worries, do have A/T tires at least....the perimeter trail at corral canyon will be a good start, maybe pine valley as long as you have A/Ts

    Rad! Sounds good. We'll get something down soon - little uncertain with all the closures and such, but we'll make it happen.

    I think the only thing in SD that is open right now is Otay mountain truck trail north entrance...its not much more then compact dirt, but there are some offshoots that are fun, maybe not for a stock vehicle though

    Table mountain might be open, you just kinda exit the freeway then drive under it - so it'd be hard to close that area.

    That's an option, I haven't been to Table mountain yet, Elliot Mine trail is close to that also, just on the south side of the freeway...both about an hr from me

    It's a blast. Many fun features out there, great for stepping up skills for newer drivers too (so long as they have sliders and don't fear pinstripes haha)

    For sure! Sounds good to me, might have to do that next week or the following. I'm free all day Tuesdays and Wednesdays if you want to do that...I work Weekends and nights so that's all I really got.
