Wifey and I did a Shakedown run to Lone Pine Cali to see if my new tow setup for the MH and Jeep would stay together

Everything help up great.  Had to make some brake cable adjustments on the Lone Pine side.  Jeep pushed us all the way down the mtn grades through Death and Panamint Valleys

One there, Stayed at Boulder Creek RV just outside Lone Pine.

Took the jeep to 10,000ft and did some hiking.

Next Day we did some Movie Site touring around the Alabama Hills...  If you haven't done this, you should...  You also need to stop at the Movie Museum in Lone Pine.

And some Arch finding in the Alabama Hills and some cool rock stuff

Well, thats what we did last weekend 😎

What did you do😜

IrnBear

Zipping down the 127 toward Baker this past weekend, was heading to Cali for Mother's Day weekend and of course finish work on my Tattoo 😎

I could see a Cell Tower sticking up into the sky from the Hills between Baby and Big Dunes

Sorry no picture

I did this event, looks like I was already passed by the time you set up.  We started at 9am and probably went through Dumont around 10:00 - 10:30 ish.   Our vehicle was #215

You Ran in it?

Kudos to you my friend 🙂

Yep, saw it

Freaking Awesome 🙂

Heading out as early as possible on Friday AM, once I get home from work 

Cold no big deal, Getting away and having fun Big Deal 😎

Have Two Sandrails this year, woohoo..  Hopefully they both run well all weekend...

and a Mansion on Wheels 🤑

I find these routes very fasinating 

Is there camping in the area, as a good staging point?

Is it Boondock camping, we prefer that?

Thanks for showing us other options

IrnBear

Pete is correct

Per the Pahrump Valley Times

After todays blasting there will not be any more blasting until after the New Year

Hello All,

The Beautiful Wife and I are owners of a Brand-SpankMe-New Motorhome

The thing is a beast and we love it

We are headed out to Dumont for New Years

Our other motorhome didn't have auto levelers, or levelers at all for that matter

Question:

do you disconnect from your trailer before you auto level  your RV??

Thank you in advance,

IrnBear

OkieDokie

Rebel/ARCO at Corner of Charleston and Shadow Lane (across from UMC)  

I didn't see a price posted

But the Yellow Handled pumpers are still there

The Yellow Handle designates the E85

Hope this helps

IrnBear

Rebel across from UMC on Charleston and Shadow Lane had it last I looked

Ill take another peak this week when leaving work....

So there not blasting tomorrow the 26th correct. 

Correct!!!

They have done a great job of posting the date on the blinking light signs and the over the highway amber alert sign, both sides of mountain.

They blast a day, then they change the date to whatever the next blast date is

As of this morning

New blast date 10/31 1245

IrnBear

Heres the Fact Jacks!!!!

Next Blasting Date

10/31 @ 1245 

Road is still very travelable

Tight in some spots and single lane each side at top

65mph to 55mph to 45mph at top

Enjoy and be safe

This is why I was vague in the beginning

Happy Duning 🤣

Hope to be there. There is one problem though, our sand rail is too big for our trailer. We’ll have to figure out something because I would really like to go.

Rent a Uhaul car hauler....

Kasea 90 Quad and Kasea 90 (Big Bore 100cc, Big Carb, Exhaust, Clutch work, etc).

My Gals loved growing up on there Kasea 90 quads....

How much for for the the stock 90??

IrnBear

Yes, sorry for that

I didn't know there was an official Mtn Pass😝

The intense road work is on the 160 headed to Pahrump at Mt Potosi

I know I was corrected with my initial post

I was intentionally vague due to past experience with the road work and closures.....

Anyway, it is still a good drive as long as it is not closed

IrnBear 

Umm, one of those Cali parks on a Holiday weekend......  Good Luck 😲

Put a big Bucket Of Legos in the truck and go to Dumont...  NO Lines and Much More Freedom and Fun 😂

IrnBear

The Official T-shirt folks are still out there from back then.

I don't know how to contact them.  But they have lots of there old shirts that they sale out of boxes on tables at the dunes.  Don't know if they have any that far back..

I was thinking the same thing as foolsofsand.....  That is always an option to get you back out there.

IrnBear

That's a 1999 Ford Triton V10 out of that trailer comes the rail, the bikes and a number of other things..... 🙂 

Thank you for the update 🙂 

What was the final outcome of this

Or is he still stuck??

Yep, gonna make it 4 lanes all the way over....

Hey All,

Just a heads up

They are doing some pretty serious road work on Mtn Pass

They are going to start blasting on Monday

Blasting will close the road for hours at a time

The Pahrump Valley Times says it will be every other day till the end of Oct early Nov

Keep this in mind when you plan your travels to Dumont.... 

Happy Duning,

IrnBear
