I added more pictures to the album these are from day 2.

They start here http://www.pilotodyssey.com/cpg/thumbna ... =68&page=4

When I get time I will go through them and delete out the crap and add comments to the keepers.

TurboTexas you can go through them and add comments while the ride is fresh in your mind since you were there too, you will have to sign up to add comments ( I think) if your already not a user, I never figured out how to "bridge" the user accounts so any member from the message board would already be signed up.

Below is pics of the petroglyphs we seen.

More in the album.

Found all kinds of info on Logandale http://www.google.com/search?q=longanda ... 203d1b4e27

Well I can see why you are so interested in the area. That is incredibly beautiful! By the looks of the rock formations it must be very windy in that area. Oh wait, its Nevada, its always windy!

I'm jealous, enjoy the rest of the trip! Keep the pictures coming!

I took 15 south to Jean Roach Dry Lake bed been riding that area getting ready to take a trip over the mountain to the Dry lake you see on 95 south of Henderson viewtopic.php?f=3&t=8223

Should be 100 miles round trip.

I have already ran most of the race course they run the Henderson 250 desert race on those tires and rims you have on the Triple E car would be perfect for this place you need something tall and tuff.

Next I will head back to Vegas to refuel and supply then head South on 95 to the Nelson hills and that dry lake if I find some good riding on the West side of 95 if not I will hit Nelson hills then head to AZ.

What is your current plans buggy running?

Just got back from a 114 mile ride was EPIC you would have loved it.

Plug this file into google earth.

I even found a loop that was part of a race course at one time (bottom left loop) upper far right side is that other lake bed on 95 I could have rode all the way to Henderson.

The Jean Roach final file is the google earth file

I then wanted to watch the short course racing at www.arizonashortcourse.com then head your way! I showed up and no one was there! So I had to come back today!!! Can't wait to get my triple e back!
