Holy crap what a GREAT relaxing fun weekend!!

Started sucky with yet another Mike and Jodi tire blow out! :thumbsdown: This time I was driving, the girls were driving while the boys rode shotgun! We are guessing that the fender came off and shredded the tire. But I made it all safe and sound to the side of the road. Of course just before that happened, both us and our traveling partners almost took out some Model T that was cruising about 30 on the freeway! Mike tied up the trailer and we limped it to the next exit 1/4 mile to Littlefield, he dropped the trailer and me off and headed back to Mesquite to get a replacement.

Cane bed road is worse then ever and the paved road is horrible as well and has the "pit of doom" pothole so big it spans almost the whole road, no way to avoid it.

Empty meadows! :yiah:

Finally made it to camp and the antics begin! :laughoff: Sooo many great laughs! :laughing: :laughing:

Good riding! :atv:

Got buzzed by a helicopter, flying super low just over the tree line, then they followed the trail up into the trees. Thought it was life flight, but the rangers said no, must have been a private heli.

Went up to the "phone zone" to make a call to check on pups and I guess the cell phone confused a bat or something, cause it hit me dead on in the face! :dayum:

Apparently the "Dumont kids ATV course" is only good at Dumont! They require a complete different one at Coral, welllll and Justin was supposed to be 8. I thought it was 7.. BUSTED! But really cool about it.

Not one quiet night around the campfire..

Cannot thank everyone on the trip enough for the great time!

A few pics from the weekend....

Thanks for sharing . I would love to hit this place at the end of August when its Fricken hot as hell here and nice and cool up there. Bad a$ pic of the fire!!!!

It still gets pretty warm up there in August. Mid-upper 90's, but nothing like Vegas heat.

I was thinking it was in 70's Well I will wait for a winter trip. I am ready now.

I have friends that go in the winter to ride in the snow! It gets super cold in the winter. We've gone in August before, just like anyplace, it's hit or miss on the weather, but definitely cooler there then here.

Yeah it would have been great to get some rides in with you guy.Mike' littlest would have had some friends his age to play with too! We always stay in the meadows, not too fond of being told when we can do stuff on our vacations. :laughing: ! No riding before 9am.. ptttt... thats when the best rides are.. first thing in the morning. Where are the dino tracks you can ride to? Thats all new to me.. Mike's little one would love that.
