It's been several year since I've been there, and not sure with the problems at the border if I would do this right now, but if things improve this is a nice drive: Arizona 4x4 Adventure - The Ghost Trail - 4 Wheel Drive & Sport Utility Magazine
They have called that first section the the Patagonia Jeep trail. It has a small section of mild 4x4. The rest is just dirt road but is a nice drive. We saw a group of folks off the road a peice and was told not to stop if we saw folks on foot. After Patagonia it went down to the old Lochiel border crossing. Nothing you need to worry about damaging a true 4x4 on. But if you have a new AWD low ridding SUV with stuff hanging down you could beat it up a bit. Nice country. That has been my only wheeling in Arizona. |
hmmm looks like a good trail....might be something to do in the spring.

Dang rememberer. There is the Arizona Strip. I've been there a few times. But it is a wild area and there is nothing out there. I'd like to get a new Ford Ranger PU and put an extra 20-30 gal. fuel tank in the bed and an extra spare tire and spend a week maping out there. The map attached is where the map software says the road is. I do not have tracks of where stuff really is and that's the reason I'd like to go back. Toto Wheep is a nice high clearence 2wd drive. Between Ft. Garrett and Mesquite there is a nasty little canyon. I'll post a few pics. There is a good road that goes up to St. George. There is a great campsite in the mountain pass SE of Mesquite. We were able to drive down to Ft. Garrett when we went but they have closed that road a few miles north of it since then.

First pic is what they call that area these days. Second pic a look back where we came up that nasty canyon. We had to climb out to get up on top. There might be an easy way around but we didn't have the extra fuel to do a lot of exploring. Third pic is just before you get to Ft. Garrett.

Great looking truck bigunred!
I am kind of slow on the technical stuff. Everytime someone tells me I need something I remember my first puter back in the 80's. A 286 AT with a 20 meg HD and EGA graphics. 640K RAM and didn't need more cause the programs I had wouldn't recognize it anyway. Cost me $2000. I have no idea what thet would be in adjusted $$$'s today. And a razor is what I use to shave my face but I don't do that much as I am retired. Anyway back then I didn't need a digital camera. I just needed pic's on the trip and most times folks would give me coppies of there's. But I did take along a Walmart single use camera and that's what I took those with. Just turned the camera back in to Walmart when I came back and picked up the CD's in a few days. I was very happy with the service and quallity. Since then I have a puter with wifi and a GPS that I can copy tracks. So I can now map where the road really is and I bought a digital camera so's when I pass through a town with wi fi I kin send pictures back to the home folks. I did own that Bronco for a few years. But back then one of my friends in Denver owned it and drove it. At that time I was driving an 89 Bronco II. But it was a nice truck. Right now I have Green my 1994 Explorer and Jr. my 1988 Bronco II. The mapping software I use is Delorme. Actually that route was made using the old 3D Topo Quads. Delorme no lnger supports those programs but the files can be read by some of the newer stuff. These days I map on Topo 4.0 and the files can be read by the current "New" Delorme software. 4.0 works well with my Garmin GPS where 6.0 has a bit of trouble. Delorme has come out with there own line of GPS's and ya can't blam them fer wantin' folks ta buy them. |
