untilCamp Verde To Mogollon Rim Overland Style Run Friday June 16th & Saturday June 17th Primitive Tent Camping | No Facilities Join me for 2 days and approximately 105 miles of exploration on this overland style run. This route will take us from Camp Verde to the Mogollon Rim where we will camp. I have pieced this together using various trails in the area. Most of these trails are easy to moderate based on my research, nothing too technical is involved. There some rocky two track sections mixed for good measure. Extra fuel is not necessarily required, however, if you have the ability to bring some it is worth considering doing so. Note this is an Offroad Passport Club members-only event.

I am interested in doing some exploring in Nevada out near the Alamo/Pioche/Caliente area. I want to go see the Delamar Ghost Town to start. I then want to explore the Silver State Trail System that is in that area. I found a GPX file for Delamar via Alamo Canyon Road on Trails Offroad. The trailhead is just south of Alamo,NV. From Delamar we would go north on Helene and Delamar Ghost Towns trail to HWY 93. From where that trail ends the Silver State Trail System is just north of the highway. If I do not get to this next year then 2024 is when I will. What I have as far as information: 2 trails with waypoints & POI's. A GPX file for the Silver State Trail System.(All the colored in trails West of Pioche) A paper map of the area that shows restrictions of certain trails to certain types of vehicles. An itch to go. Average weather for that time of year. What I do not have: Waypoints or POI's on the SSTS. I do know there are information boards etc. out there. I also believe there is a scattering of old mining operations & possibly homesteads. A final route. This area covers a lot of ground so dissecting is in the future. A crystal ball that can see if the guberment is going to make things worse than they are now as far as gas prices go. Alamo is a little over 6 hours away from where I am so that would mean a long weekend. My plan as of now is to get a room in Alamo on a Friday night, run some trails Saturday and camp. Then run some trails Sunday and either get done early and go home or run until Sunday afternoon and camp or hotel it Sunday night. Could be fun, could be a waste of time but we'll never know unless we go. 🙂 If this is something you may be interested at some point in time let me know. Let's discuss!

We took a weekend trip to visit Yant Flat in Utah near St George last month. We camped at the top of Badger Canyon in Marble Canyon on BLM land and found an amazing camp at the end of a fun OHV trail in Dixie National Forest and checked out Yant Flat. Our adventure pup, Zyra had a great time on this trip too. We are so lucky to have adopted her and that she turned out to be super smart and easy to train for overlanding and hiking with. This was in late February (19th and 20th) and was in the mid 30s at night and mid 70s during the day. All and all an amazing trip for such a short time. Our goal is to meet new friends here and organize small group overlanding trips in the future with folks who would like to join us on our future adventures. PS: We are planning a 5-day overlanding trip from after work on Thursday 4/7 and be back on Tuesday evening 4/12. The trip will be exploring areas around Death Valley, possibly Alabama Hills, Trona Pinnacles, and then on the way back around Valley of Fire east of Vegas. It will be a lot of wild camping, offroading (mix of easy, moderate and difficult trails), hiking and filming. Please message me if you are interested in joining us. Blog post with more detail info and additional photos for the trip: https://j2dxplr.com/weekend-overlanding-trip-marble-canyon-yant-flat/ Our YouTube video of the trip is embedded at the end of this post.
