Chloride Cliffs, Death Valley National Park, California USA

This loop has two entry points off Hwy 4. Both have a seasonal designation, meaning they are only open from April 15 to December 15. The east entry point is indicated on the attached map as "17EV485" (box 13). The entrance is about 1 mile west of the Bear Valley Lodge. The west entry...

Getting ready for Death Valley: finally mounted Maxtrax and found a place for extra fuel.

Corral Hollow, Stanislaus National Forest, California, November 2020.

Thought some of you might enjoy this. In case you are wondering, we did make it all the way from the west trailhead to the east trailhead. Some slipping, sliding, and winching was involved. :smirk:

Hi all - I dutifully searched for any recommendations for Jeep Mechanics in the San Jose area, but found none. Anybody have any recommendations? I do most work myself, but I have a new pinion and ring gear set that I don't want to tackle myself. Not a huge project but would like to find...

Excited to do Sourgrass this weekend

@Mr. Fixit and @06tacodude really appreciate the guidance. I'll be at the east trailhead of Corral Hollow by 8:30am Friday for my first experience.

Thank you both for the pictures and guidance. I'm a newby and was considering Hermit Valley up to Lower Blue Lake this Friday but now I'm reconsidering given my Jeep Rubicon on 33's (owned for 1 month) and only NF roads under my belt. Any advice on the difficulty of Corral Hollow for those...

Hi folks - I joined about a month go and have been hard at work on my first rig. Here are some photos before (late July acquired the vehicle) and yesterday (August 30) after a dry run with it fully loaded (except for wife/kid and food). Looking forward to some adventures in the Central and...
