    Off road trip...Tucson Area

    May be going off roading on Saturday 6/14/03. Trying to get together with some friends who will be bringing their Jeep Rubicon and Range Rover out to play. Looking at a trail near Mammoth, Az. I will keep you updated as soon as I know for sure. Let me know if you want to come out and play!

    Where is Mammoth, and more importantly, how hot is it in Mammoth?

    Mammoth is about mid way between Tucson and Superior on hwy.77. A little higher in altitude and maybe 10-15 degrees cooler than Tucson! It will still be a warm one! I am not sure of the exact trail...once I get more info from my friend I update everyone. Everyone, no matter what you drive (as long as its trail worthy ), is welcome to join us.

    Okay here is the info!
    The trail is Copper Creek. We are leaving the North side of Tucson (Home Depot parking lot Oracle and 1st) at 6:00 a.m.
    Anyone wanting to meet in Mammoth...I'm thinking we should be there around 6:30-7:00 at the circle K. The trail is about 30 miles long and is rated a 3-3.5 It goes to an old mining town by way of a canyon.
    Let me know if you plan on joining us and where you will be meeting us!
