I don't have coords, but I can get them. I'm talking the dirt parking lot right off the road where everyone leaves their trailers.

The dirt parking lot right off the road where everyone leaves their trailers for the main 5MP area (40.2369 -112.1628)

or

the dirt parking lot right off the road where everyone leaves their trailers for the Snakes
(40.247 -112.213)?

Thanks,
Brett

I believe it's this parking lot (though I could be off by a few hundred feet)

That one is closer, but I think this is the one with the sign, isn't it?

^^^Yup, that's the one. Steve was a little too far NorthWest.

 

[sixstringsteve]

ok, thanks. I'll edit my post.

 

[Maverick]

Ah, very nice. While editing my post, someone interrupted me with actual work, and you put up the map.

Just to clarify a bit more, the "Snakes parking lot" is just a few miles WEST of the 5mile Pass ATV Riding Area.

Its also 1 Mile before you get to the "Sunshine Canyon" (while driving West) righthand side of the road which is also oriented on the North side of 73.


please see attached KMZ file for details.

 

[sixstringsteve]

thanks Ryan. I just assume everyone knows where the snakes parking lot is.

So, is anyone coming on this trip? If not, I'm.just going.to cancel it.

 

[Omgbecki]

I'm out. Ordered my parts tuesday and they barely decided to ship them earlier today. My girlfriend isn't happy either but, that's the life of this offroad world. Although now, I have to deal with an upset women. :/

 

[Kevin B.]

I can't overnight it. I'm going to do my best to make it out Saturday morning.

You're always welcome to come along the PET with us!

Ditto.

 

[sixstringsteve]

Allright, I'm not going to do the overnighter. I may not even wheel tomorrow either, we'll see.

 

[Stephen]

Lame.

 

[sixstringsteve]

I've got too much stuff to take care of at home.

 

[jinxspot]

I'll be there pretty much all day Saturday with a couple buddies if anyone still wants to run to run Snakes...

 

[sixstringsteve]

I'm out tomorrow too, I just need a day home to clean the garage and get my life back to order.

Got swamped at work today. Redid the trailer brakes last night, but they still don't work. Noticed the side marker lights blinking with the turn signals...me thinks the 16yo rewired it wrong when he fixed his oops of driving off with the plug still plugged in to the truck. So I gotta work late, then fix the lights tonight, and work tomorrow. We'll see ya if we see ya.
