    They have gas and Jet fuel at the airport. If you stop in at the office Morey will meet yoy at the pimp. It is the first tank on the right as you head south from the office.

    Hole in the Rock

    Iwould recommend that you camp in the same place as you have in the past. The road in from the airport would be the easiest access to the camping area. The gas last weekend at the airport was $3.69.9 a gallon. The right turn to the rock corral, the left turn to the bypass by way of Nokei Dome.

    Hole in the Rock

    I am a slow at typing and poor as a speller. The best way would be to join me on one of the EJS trips I led. I do not lead the labor day trip for the Red Rock 4-wheelers club.

    You already probably know that the Rincon road is closed. The signs just keep getting removed, the same at the turn around at the end of the road. The person who went down past the end of the driving part of the trail 4 years ago ended up with a $1,000.oo fine for the destruction that he caused...
