Here's some of my pics:
And yes, I know the dates on the pictures are wrong. Sorry, but I'm way too lazy to change them.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.
Nice! But that 4th picture from the top still scares me (a giant bolder became dislodged and went tumbling for our VXes, luckily it only knicked the front of CrnCnn's cladding with no harm done, but my heart skipped a few beats as I watched that rock fall! Sorry Clint!)
OK, here are a few of mine, more can be seen on VX MADNESS!

I really want a good digital camera so I dont have to wait, or pay.
I will be loking into a GPS and some software that you can plot you "waypoints." Whatever, I know nothing about GPS except that the people that I used to go to the sand dunes with in AZ had it and called it PMS cause it would always make them pissed off.
Anyway, my schedule will be changing soon so that I wont have sundays off. We will have to figure it out.
Yeah, I have a lot going on this summer, but we should take a day and do a lunch/VX meet/shooting event sometime soon.
I love my Garmin GPS, but it was a MAJOR pain in the @$$ to get working and it wasn't cheap. Go here to get a decent deal and all the info you ever wanted on GPS devices.

I'm actually coming up this weekend but the VX is getting dropped off for a head-to-toe inspection(!), so I'll be in some kind of a rental.
Rental. Yuck. But it does make you appreciate the VX even more!

I also found out that the trail turns into one of the most difficult runs of the Rubicon(Fordyce Jeep trail) a little down the road, so maybe not such a great idea. I'll keep you guys posted with what I find. We'll pretty much have to stick to the Nevada side too, because I can't bring my rifle to California(those pinko commies) without getting an instant felony. I think the same goes for you Bart. I think the deal is that you can't have a detachable magazine if I remember correctly.
Sounds good. We still have Clint's trail to do also. That one would be nice to do for a whole day trip were we can bring lunches, etc.
As for guns, I totally understand. I never bring anything over the border into Cali, and all of my rifles have detachable mags.
